According to the book description of the First Space Encyclopedia, “The latest title in DK's First Reference series introduces the universe, visiting all the planets of our solar system and their moons, as well as our Sun and other stars, black holes, asteroids, comets, and other galaxies. Up to date with the latest astronomical theories, First Space Encyclopedia includes information about the great Pluto debate and the recent discovery of an Earth-like planet, as well as pictures from the latest voyages by shuttles, rovers, and probes, and the conflicting evidence on aliens and UFOs. And of course, young space enthusiasts will want to know all about the cool technology behind what astronauts wear, what they do to train, and even what they eat. All of this and more is ready to reference in a thorough and accessible hardcover volume just right for young scholars.”
One reader of First Space Encyclopedia said, “We bought this for my daughter on her fifth birthday and she simply adores it. It comes in the car with us, to the dinner table, she's been up many a night reading it when she was supposed to be asleep, etc. This book is very well done with lots of facts that my solar system obsessed daughter didn't know. It's done in accessible language with gorgeous pictures. Highly recommended!”
