Book Synopsis
About 80 years ago, it was possible for the first time to confirm what modern science had suggested for centuries: Earth shows its sphericity based on a curved horizon. Images sent back from many spacecraft showed how Earth and its Moon are part of the solar system. This book is a journey away from Earth, but always looking back at it.
