All About Space Bookazine Everything You Need To Know About… The Solar System First Edition Vorige editie

The Earth’s nearest neighbours are a fascinating array of planets, moons and asteroids, illuminated by an equally enthralling star, the Sun. Throughout humanity’s history, we have learned much about the Solar System, evolving from rudimentary stargazing with early telescopes to human exploration of the Moon, robotic expeditions to Mars and launching intrepid probes to our neighbourhood’s furthest reaches and beyond.

Join us as we journey around the Solar System and uncover the most fascinating and awe-inspiring facts about our home star system. We’ll stop off at familiar faces like the Earth, Moon and Mars before journeying to distant, far-off wonders beyond the asteroid belt, such as Neptune, Pluto and beyond to the furthest trans-Neptunian object out there, ‘FarFarOut’. We will also touch on fascinating theories, such as a distant ninth planet and even Nemesis, the sun’s ‘evil twin’. Strap in and prepare to blast off on an epic voyage of discovery.
