Mie Nagata, long-time planetarium narrator and presenter of the summertime NHK Radio Show “Science Questions from Children”, teams up with photographer Yasumaro Yaita, and uses images from NASA and JAXA (Japan’s equivalent to NASA) to answer 109 questions about our solar system, chosen from those sent into her radio show. Stunning, vivid photographs accompany her accessible explanations to some of the mysteries of the near universe. This book will fascinate and educate in equal measures.
