Review:

Do you think scientists are looking for life on other planets? You are correct but that’s not all. In this handy guide, you can learn about space junk, food, and what happens to your body in space. 

Right off the bat, this guide quizzes you on your Galactic Glossary. Do you know your space language? Did you know that scientists think that asteroids and comets may be able to support life? The planet discovered with the most bling is 55 Cancri E. It is estimated that its diamond value is 26.9 nonillion. Winds on Venus can reach up to 250 miles per hour and it is possible to put one million earths’ into the sun. The astronaut footprints on the moon could be there for a million years. The NASA space suit costs over $250 million to make. When astronauts train for outer space they go to Antarctica for the freezing temperatures, Italy to explore deep caves, and the Atlantic Ocean to simulate living on another planet. 

With all the space information found within these pages, a reader could go into a serious overload. Don’t worry there are plenty of jokes, quizzes, space fun facts, games, resources to learn more, and loads of amazing photos which bring space up close and personal just for you. Parents and teachers can use this tool to teach all about space and get kids engaged with learning more.
