'National Geographic Encyclopedia Of Space' is the broadest and most accessible encyclopedia of its kind, revealing the complexities of our solar system, deep space exploration and discovery, and the commercial, scientific, and military uses of space in one comprehensive volume.

How vast is the Milky Way? What makes a satellite stay up? How does deep space affect our daily climate?

'National Geographic Encyclopedia Of Space' provides answers to all pertinent questions regarding space and space travel. In one easy-to-read and lavishly illustrated package, this volume offers clear and concise explanations of all aspects of space - from planets, telescopes, and satellites to the origins of the universe and the discoveries made by Nicolaus Copernicus, Edwin Hubble, and Stephen Hawking. Arranged in six thematic chapters, the encyclopedia features tables, diagrams, maps, and fact boxes, which are enriched by recently declassified intelligence material, photographs from the US Navy and National Reconnaissance Office, the latest Hubble images, and essays written by professionals in the field, such as astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Kathyrn Sullivan, and marine biologist Sylvia Earle.

Thanks to the success of the Mars landings in January 2004, space science is more popular than ever. Complete with up-to-the-minute information and expert commentary, 'National Geographic Encyclopedia Of Space' is the definitive volume for studying and understanding the mysteries of the cosmos.
