Summary: NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKINBOUT!
Review: This book is for space lovers of ALL AGES! You will be blown away by this book. I have been fascinated with astronomy and space photography since birth and have looked at countless books and none of them measured up to what I wanted until I found this! Now you no longer have to search for the ultimate space photography book; I did the searching for you! You won't find a better book if you journeyed a lightyear! But just think of all you'd see! LOL!

Here are the contents: STARGAZERS, THE SOLAR SYSTEM, THE SUN, ECLIPSES, MERCURY, VENUS, EARTH, THE MOON, MAN ON THE MOON, MARS, EXPLORING MARS, JUPTITER, JUPITER'S MOONS, SATURN, URANUS, NEPTUNE, PLUTO & CHARON, COMETS & ASTEROIDS, STAR BIRTH, STAR DEATH, THE MILKY WAY, GALAXIES, THE UNIVERSE, ROCKETS, THE SPACE SHUTTLE, LIVING IN SPACE, SPACE STATIONS, SATELLITES, IS ANYONE OUT THERE?, SPACE DATA AND INDEX.

My personal favorite chapters are: The Solar System, each planet, Comets & Asteroids, Star Birth and Star Death (extremely beautiful and fascinating); The Milky Way, Galaxies, The Universe, Is Anyone Out There? and Space Data.

You have to own this book! Buy it now! I give this my highest rating! Everything is perfect--not just the photography, but the succinct information and page layout. Also the book is the perfect size for the photographs! I can't find ANY fault in this book!

I wish I could meet and shake hands with everyone involved in the making of this awesome book! If every book were as good as this one, I would have a book in my face for the rest of my life!

Summary: OUTSTANDING Space Book!
Review: What more could I say! The photos are fantastic! The info is current to 1999. The book being oversized only enhanced the outstanding photography. Real photos from the Space Shuttle, satellite photos. There is one of Mt. Everest that makes it look like a tiny hill. Amazing! The books goes planet by planet showing at the lower left it's size as compared to earth. Great for school or homeschool or just looking! It's a great bang for the buck! If you love space, it's packs an amazing punch!
