Photographs from the Archives of NASA

Take a tour of the universe with this awe-inspiring collection of photographs from the archives of NASA, featuring spectacular views of Earth from above, our solar system, and deep space.



Featuring a preface by everyone's favorite "Science Guy" Bill Nye, Earth and Space is an unparalleled journey through the cosmos, offering up-close views of our remarkable cosmos.



More than 100 astonishing images of Earth from above (first captured by the Apollo program), the phenomena of our solar system, and the celestial bodies of deep space will captivate readers and photography lovers with an interest in science, astronomy, and the great beyond. Each extraordinary photograph gleaned from the archives of the legendary space agency is paired with explanatory text that contextualizes its place in the cosmic ballet of planets, stars, dust, and matter--from Earth's limb to solar flares, the Jellyfish Nebula to Pandora's Cluster.



Anyone with an interest in stars, planets, space exploration, and the overall beauty and mystery of our universe will find much to marvel at within these pages.



DAZZLING HIGH-QUALITY PHOTOGRAPHY: Readers rave about the quality of the images in this collection as well as the gorgeous page layouts that offer a feast for the eyes. Equal parts photography book and astronomy book, it is ideal for casual browsers and science learners alike.



AMONG THE GREAT SPACE BOOKS: Alongside books like Carl Sagan's Cosmos and Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time, this volume offers us a chance to step deeply into our universe without ever leaving Earth. Page after page reveal incredible views of constellations, stars, star clusters, a hypernova, supernova remnants, nebulae, Milky Way dust, cloud galaxies, galaxy clusters, and much more.



A GIFT FOR ALL AGES: Much more than a coffee table book, Earth and Space holds appeal for kids, teens, adults, and seniors with its mesmerizing visual catalog and fascinating facts.



Perfect for:
 * Astronomy and space enthusiasts
 * Teachers, librarians, and students seeking an instructive and inspiring resource
 * Fans of Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, National Geographic and Smithsonian books
 * Gift giving for birthday, graduation, retirement, Mother's Day, Father's Day, or holiday for science, technology, history, and space lovers of all ages

The book has some moderate notes in the margins. The white pages are lightly browned with age. 

From the back of the book:

These essays by Wendell Berry express his hope for a harmonious relationship of humanity with the earth and all its creatures. Whether his focus is on the poet and nature, as in "A Secular Pilgrimage"and "Homage to Dr. Williams," or consumerism, as in
"Think Little," or strip mining, as in
"Mayhem in the Industrial Paradise," his subject is always the urgency of resolving the conflict between people and the fragile world in which they must live. Perhaps this theme is best expressed in the extended essay, "Discipline and Hope," in which a dismal collection of social ills is seen as originating in the contemporary inability to recognize a potential for order through perceiving the world as a whole. Berry's passionate, reasoned, articulate voice speaks compellingly of the need to learn a new way of seeing.

"Berry's book will be treasured by those convinced, as the author is, that 'We have despised our greatest gift, the inheritance of a fruitful land.?'"

- Louisville Times


"A dignified and lucid statement of the need for personal attention- love -for the land."

The Volcanic Disaster That Claimed 30,000 Lives

On May 8, 1902, Mont Pelée on the island of Martinique exploded. A deadly cloud of steam and ash churned through plantations and villages, flattened the grand city of St. Pierre, then thundered into the bay where it sank eighteen ships and hundreds of smaller craft. Within a minute or two, nearly 30,000 humans died. The splintered rubble of their homes and belongings burned for three days, and the world began to understand the awesome power of nuées ardentes, glowing avalanches of hot gas and debris that sweep down the slopes of volcanoes, instantly steaming to death anything in its path. The enormous death toll was particularly tragic because it was avoidable. Had it not been for an unfortunate combination of scientific misjudgment and political hubris, most of the victims would have escaped.

            In The Last Days of St. Pierre, Ernest Zebrowski Jr. counts down the days leading up to the catastrophe, and unfolds a tale intertwining human foolishness and heroism with the remarkable forces of nature. Illustrations contrast life in Martinique before and after the eruption, and eyewitness accounts bring the story to life.

Although it seems a long time since the destruction of St. Pierre, it is a mere blink of an eye in our planet's geological history. Mont Pelée will erupt again, as will Vesuvius, Krakatau, St. Helens, Thera, and most other infamously fatal volcanoes, and human lives will again be threatened. The St. Pierre disaster has taught us much about the awesome power of volcanic forces and the devastation they can bring.

Living in Full Awareness of the Earth

“There’s a war going on. A war against the earth, against mother earth. I wonder whose side you on?” So says Clayton Tommy, Salish teacher and mentor, to Tom Harmer, his apprentice in the old ways of the native peoples of the American Northwest, and the even more ancient ways of nature. What I’ve Always Knownis Harmer’s wondrous memoir of his pursuit of the answer to that question. Roaming the mountains and forests with Clayton, Harmer is guided along the arduous and perilous road of “self-training,” as he learns how to interpret his dreams, participate in sweatlodges and healing ceremonies, track and hunt deer, deal with raw fear, and—Clayton’s own personal gift—foretell, and even influence, the weather. By journey’s end he realizes that the legacy he has received is the knowledge of how to live in a way that benefits and serves the earth and all the creatures who call it home.
