Space Views from the Hubble Telescope Wall Calendar: Because it orbits the Earth outside of the atmosphere and its distorting effects, the Hubble Telescope—one of NASA's longest-lasting and most successful missions—provides high-resolution images of cosmic phenomena. Each of this calendar's 12 dazzling images is accompanied by a description of the celestial phenomenon depicted. Important dates in the history of space exploration, as well as current astronomical events, are noted throughout. EAN: 9780764964183
