This stunning collection of images provides a new look at the Solar System made possible by recent exciting missions such as Cassini as well as by other probes and by Earth-based imaging. The book takes advantage of the rich pool of images that is available to tell a story of the Solar System that has not been told before. The images, all from the public domain but not hitherto gathered into a coherent collection, are supported by text and graphics. Each main image is accompanied by a graphic showing the location in the Solar System of the featured object. All of these graphics are based in a template providing a simple representation of the Solar System. The text itself is not extensive, allowing page design to have a high priority. The book is intended for anybody who lives in solar orbit and takes a general interest in the solar neighborhood.
