Space flight has provided fascinating images of the planets in our solar system, especially in recent years. Space probes equipped with high-resolution cameras and sensitive sensors have transmitted detailed images of the surfaces of planets and their moons that seemed unimaginable just a few years ago.
In this magnificent volume, which also comes with 3D glasses, Berndt Feuerbacher presents aesthetically appealing images – some in 3D – as well as information about the groundbreaking missions that made these images possible.
The author Prof. Dr. Berndt Feuerbacher has been active in space flight for over 30 years. He researched moon material from the Apollo missions and, as director of the Institute of Space Simulation at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), conducted scientific experiments in space laboratories (Spacelab), on satellites and space probes.
