Summary: This book is another informational text from the Encyclopedia Britannica in which space has become the primary informational topic. The book starts by describing the usage of satellites and interstellar probes that have expanded human knowledge on space and the ever-expanding universe. These satellites are shown in detail, accompanied by some of the brightest minds responsible for some of their early creation. The book continues on with talking about space exploration and more specifically, our expedition to Earth’s moon, our natural satellite. Continuing further, the book gives giant visuals of the rocket(s) that took the astronauts to the moon for the first time, as well as the training that the astronauts had to endure.
Target Audience: As another amazing information text from the Encyclopedia Britannica, this book is easily aimed at a vast amount of people, and no one specific audience. Those who may enjoy this book more may be the younger ranges such as 1st through 5th, but this book is very easily understood and enjoyed by any of the ranges far above that initial assumption. (i.e. 1st-12th)
