What would it be like to visit Mars? Two highly capable robotic geologists - Spirit and Opportunity - made the amazing voyage and spent the last four years roaming the Red Planet's unique landscape. Thanks to 120 stunning 3-D and colour images shot by these rovers, readers can enjoy these super-realistic pictures as they pop off the page, showing the rocks, craters, valleys and other geologic configurations that define the Martian terrain. Compelling and accessible text guides us on this exhilarating tour, revealing the thrill of each discovery, along with the perils and near misses. Featuring a fold-out flap with embedded 3-D viewer, it's the perfect gift for any armchair astronomer.
