| Abstract | "Since the beginning of time, humans have been fascinated with the stars. The development of telescopes allowed them to learn more about the universe around them, and as technology advanced, they were able to send spaceships into space to discover things such as the composition of Saturn's atmosphere or the temperature of Mercury's surface. Through informative sidebars and full-color photographs, readers learn about the scientists who have made space exploration possible and the amazing things they have discovered over the centuries--and the exciting possibilities the future may hold."-- Provided by publisher. |
