| Description: The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) will go down in history as the most productive and scientifically significant instrument in our era. Stunning images that have expanded our knowledge and added new mysteries are included along with author/astronomer Robin Kerrod's excellent analysis and commentary on what scientists have revealed about the details. 9.5"x 11.5". 192 pgs. Hardcover. High above the dirty window of Earth's atmosphere, the Hubble Space Telescope enjoys a clear view of the universe. 'Hubble' uses hundreds of the latest, most spectacular images from the HST to illustrate a comprehensive astronomy reference. Stargazers will be astonished to see in color pictures what were once fuzzy photographs, dots on a star map or words in a textbook. FREE: Three copies of our Heavenly Reflections Hubble Space Telescope cards - a $7.50 value - with each book. (These cards are pre-packed , so the cards selected will be a surprise.)
