The book opens flat and invites hours of browsing make sure you have a sturdy table , and contains a wealth of up-to-date information with at least one omission perhaps there are more but with a book of this size, it would take a long time to discover them. The omission I am referring to is that there is no mention whatsoever of the New Horizons space probe which was launched from Cape Canaveral in and is scheduled to arrive in the vicinity of Pluto and its satellites on July 15, and continue on to the Kuiper Belt and beyond.

Nasa hopes to obtain much new and extraordinary data from New Horizons. A brief mention of the approaching spacecraft on the pages devoted to Pluto and the Kuiper Belt would have been ideal. All-in-all, this is a book to delight the armchair astronomer as well as anyone else with even a passing interest in this fascinating subject. This book is inspiring and has lots of detailed information. It's large and heavy with lots of photos and diagrams. My only disappointment was the shipping.

When I got it, the box was open, the tape was torn and no packing slip. Because the book bounced around inside the box, some pages got dented.
