its a beautiful book! great for a gift
I think this is a wonderful book; the pictures are clear, and colors good. The pictures of our solar system and
beyond, are amazing.. There are stars that are being formed, and new solar systems.. It is a wonderful and unique gift for a student of any age. The price is right also.

Beautiful Book
Hubble is 33 years old with many technological and imaging upgrades along the way. Even though the early celestial images were spectacular, the newer images are even more impressive. This book captures them, which is one reason to buy it. Another reason is there isn’t much overlap with previously published images. Also, this book doesn’t waste a lot of space explaining telescope tech – but it tells what you need to know. My biggest reason to buy this book (I looked at and compared many) is this book focuses almost entirely on the cosmos not our solar system. Buy a different book for planets and the Sun. Buy this book to see the stars. abh

Well over 300 pages in this large book with most containing pictures. How do I pick out just 4 pictures to give you a glimpse?
Very informative and about $15 less than something like this at the bookstore.

Muy bien explicado y completo. El vocabulario en inglés es casi literario. Me ha parecido especialmente interesante el capÃtulo dedicado a la naturaleza de los colores en las fotografÃas del Hubble.
