| Description: |
This text looks at lunar exploration, combining the astronauts' own words and pictures. It features a before and after discussion of the results of the moon landing programme, its contribution to our understanding of planetary geology, and transcripts of what the astronauts said to each other. |
| Synopsis: |
If you have ever asked yourself What did the astronauts do on the lunar surface? What did they say while they were there? What did they photograph? How did their discoveries alter our understanding of lunar geology? Will we ever go back to the moon? If so, Exploring the Moon is the book for you. This unique insight into the three Apollo missions (15, 16 and 17) answers all these questions and much more. Using the actual transcripts of what the astronauts said to each other whilst carrying out their duties, and numerous photographs taken at each step of the exploration, this book provides a graphic illustration of what can arguably be described as Mankinds greatest feat of exploration. |
