À propos de l'auteur

Author/artist Michael Carroll has spent decades as a science journalist and even longer as an astronomical artist.

He lectures extensively in concert with his various books, and has done invited talks at science museums, aerospace facilities, and NASA centers. He has written articles and books on topics ranging from space to archeology. His articles and art have appeared in TIME, National Geographic, Scientific American, Smithsonian, Popular Science, Astronomy, Sky and Telescope, Astronomy Now (UK), and a host of children's books and magazines. Among his twenty-some books are Springer's Living Among Giants: Exploring and Settling the Outer Solar System and his novel On the Shores of Titan's Farthest Sea for Springer's Science and Fiction series (2015). One of his paintings is on the surface of Mars--in digital form--aboard the Phoenix lander. Carroll is the 2006 recipient of the Lucien Rudaux Award for lifetime achievement in the Astronomical Arts.
