About this book

Packed with practical advice and vivid details, this guide follows an aspiring space tourist through every step of planning a solar-system vacation, from choosing a class V launch vehicle to packing the right gear. Each chapter explores a destination such as the Moon, Mars, and the cloud-laden atmosphere of Venus explaining what you'll see, how the environment differs from Earth, and whether you'll need water, air, or a special suit. The book also tackles the everyday realities of life aboard a spacecraft, including zero-gravity living, keeping clean, and staying safe in hostile conditions. Designed for middle-grade readers, it turns complex planetary science into an accessible travel itinerary.
