Summary
This stunning visual guide to our corner of the universe takes you on a journey from the blazing Sun to the planets that make up our star's family. The journey includes Earth itself and the rocky, uninhabitable worlds that are our nearest neighbors--Mercury, Venus, and Mars--before heading out through the debris of the Asteroid Belt to the giant gas planets. At the outer limits of the solar system, the tour reachers its conclusion in the dark, icy regions where comets are born
