### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outer Space & How to Get There!
*by P***E on December 30, 2020*

Although geared for young readers, this volume contains a lot of scientific information about planets, the solar system, gravity and the universe. This book then goes on to give detailed ways a rocket works. Included are many fine points about staging, orbits, power generation, thermal control, communications, navigation, and guidance. Questions are answered about what things would be necessary to explore a variety of places such as the moon, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, and even asteroids. What would be the same, and what would be different, to go to each place? What would be needed for exploration? Possible power sources or alternative methods are considered for deep space travel—even the use of gravity slingshots to increase speed. Also brought up is the question of life on other planets, and space exploration possibilities in the future. This hard-backed book contains brilliantly colored illustrations of planets and space. A vast amount of information about this intricate subject will be found in this volume—parts of which are complex. Although this book is geared towards grades four through nine, an individual’s grasp of math and science will best determine what age a child needs to be to appreciate this 5-star book. Children with an interest in outer space, along with those academic subjects, will highly enjoy this volume. Candlewick Publishers, for the purpose of review, has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Rocket Science. I have not been compensated in any other manner.
