Synopsis

Get ready to blast off into space! This interactive, fact-filled book by two space experts takes kids aged 8-12 on a journey through the universe with answers to all their questions on space exploration-from what the first rockets looked like and the first animal in space to what space food tastes like and what it's like to live in zero gravity.
