Exploring the Final Frontier: Books about Space

Space and all its components have been studied for centuries. From the first telescopes to the most detailed photos of far-away planets, people study space because so little is known about it. We know it’s a vacuum. We know there are planets. But every day, we discover more and more about outer space, and share more information with people all around the world. If you’re interested in learning more about space and the related fields of study, here are a few books that you might want to read.
