A propos de cet article

A stunning, one-of-a-kind collection of photographs by NASA astronauts showcases the startling beauty--and saddening devastation--of Earth from a perspective few will ever experience. A glimpse of what our home planet looks like from the window of a space craft. Brief historical and scientific commentary is enlivened with fascinating details. The organization of photographs and text makes Orbit a round-trip tour from blastoff to final approach along the blue-green waters of the Gulf Coast until Cape Canaveral looms into view. Readers can even keep track of the journey with the aid of miniature global maps on most pages. / This is a 1st edition hardback with its laminated boards in near to fine condition-the front cover has been scratched. (224 pages). This is a heavy book over 1.7kg, so there will be an extra postage charge.
