From Here to Infinity: A Beginner's Guide to Astronomy by Mary Gribbin, John Gribbin

millennialbookreview's review against another edition

3.0

This is a very good introduction to astronomy, as the subtitle suggests. It’s a good resource to have on hand while learning about space or simply look up random, but well-known facts and figures. By far, the biggest strength of this book is the beautiful, high-quality color photos of different planets, moons and other astronomical bodies. Some of the information is, unfortunately, outdated since this was published in 2009 and a number of discoveries have been made since then.
