Editorial Reviews

(This book) provides no lessons on taking space shots, but is a remarkable collection of images of the night sky that will inspire anyone who likes astronomy photography or wants a science discussion replete with some of Hubble's best images. Diane Donovan, California Bookwatch

“We do not know why we are born into the world, but we can try to find out what sort of a world it is—at least in its physical aspects.” “Speculations once ranged through the entire field, but they have been pushed steadily back by the explorations until now they lay undisputed claim only to the territory beyond the telescopes.” —Edwin Powell Hubble, author of The Realm of the Nebulae
