This well-organized book moves from early attempts to understand the moon through rocket development and Soviet Union space efforts, to concentrate on U.S. moon missions. Astronaut equipment and training, along with ground support, are detailed in text, captions, and numerous diagrams and archival NASA photos. A projection for future exploration is followed by moon facts. Book includes a poster and DVD. Glos., ind.

Insiders series.
In the first half of this guide, readers are introduced to the origins of the universe, the types of objects it contains, and how we explore space. This is followed by a look at the planets in our solar system as well as other stars and galaxies. Though the information is scattered, double-page spreads flesh out details with well-captioned illustrations. Glos., ind.
