Starting with a detailed spread showing the arrangement of a plausibly imagined "interplanetary cruise ship", this entertaining book is structured as a tourist guide to the Solar System, with spreads on each planet and some moons. Beyond the planets are spreads on a comet, a nebula, a dying star and a black hole. For each planet, Need to Know notes gravity, temperature and chances of alien life. Estimated Journey time from Earth is given. Suggested Visits and Tourist Tips are listed.There are splendid NASA illustrations.
