Publisher's Synopsis

THE STORY OF THE HUMAN JOURNEY TO SPACE

Long before anyone had designed a rocket, the Montgolfier brothers were making hot air balloons. In October 1783, they became the first people to experience controlled flight. Balloon to the Moon starts there and leads to Neil Armstrong's 'small step' and beyond. But why stop there?

Learn about the great innovations of the past, then get ready for BLAST OFF into an unknown but exciting future.

About the Publisher

Big Picture Press

Big Picture Press books are objects to be pored over and then returned to, again and again... created by and made for the incurably curious. We also recognize that visual excellence enhances the way we read and the stories we are told - whatever corner of the globe you're reading from. And thus our motto, taken from an old Navajo poem: MANY TONGUES ONE EYE.
