5.0 out of 5 stars Full of information and great videos, July 21, 2005

By	Spaceboss "importcdboss" (Chicago IL) - See all my reviews

I just finally got through the plethora of data in this book. It might not give you all of the after mission details that we got after each mission, but it tells you all of the basics of Voyager, Pioneer, Cassini, Galileo et al. You could write an outer solar system space mission from this book. The double sided DVD as usual is brilliant, there are some amazing videos of each mission. Described by the people who lead the teams, you get the feeling of excitement that these people generate from being the first to do something extraordinary. If you are a space enthusiast you cannot afford to be without this book.
Well done once again Apogee Books
