5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource
I purchased this book for my daughter, and have ended up reading it just as much myself!The pictures are great, and the information is clear and well-presented. My daughter doesn't only use it for her school projects, but often just picks it up to read for entertainment. I give this book my highest recommendation both to adults as well as kids.

This book was a great source of information on, well, everything. It taught me all the words I didn't understand such as: RCS, and MMU.You look them up. I read a lot of space books and most of them, well, are just to confusing. This book gives all the definitions in plain english. In ending I have to say...
