With dazzling images on every spread, and illuminating text by astrobiologist Dr. David Warmflash,
Moon: An Illustrated History chronologically presents 100 milestones in the Moon’s development and exploration.

Find out about lunar calendar systems and cults in the Bible; how lunar brightness was used to estimate stellar distances; how advancing telescopes in the seventeenth century allowed us to eye the Moon more closely; how author Jules Verne inspired the Father of Astronautics; the originals of the Saturn V Moon Rocket; the Apollo missions, and so much more.
