The reality of space travel is something that today's child has grown up with. He knows that men have walked on the moon, and he knows that someday he may go there himself.
In this completely revised edition of a Beginner Book favorite, Dr. and Mrs. Freeman have drawn upon the knowledge and experience of the past dramatic decade of space exploration to give the young reader an exciting and scientifically accurate picture of what it will be like. They take him from the Earth to a space station, and then to the mountains of the moon itself, introducing along the way such concepts as weightlessness, gravity, inertia and centrifugal force. And they do it in simple words and simple sentences that beginners can read all by themselves.
