    Book Description:

    Finding all the fascinating scientific sites to visit throughout America can be daunting. This guidebook does all the work for you. The first in a series of travel books that will celebrate science and technology in America, Astronomy and Space Exploration describes astronomy- and space-related museums and attractions that conventional travel guides tend to ignore. So, gas up the car, grab some snacks for the road and start the voyage. Written in clear, easy-to-read language, Astronomy and Space Exploration lists more than 50 of the most critical and intriguing astronomical and space-related sites in the United States. The book encompasses famous and obscure places of interest, all open to the public. Grouping the attractions by theme, such as Native American astronomy, optical and radio telescopes, NASA and space exploration, and space rocks, Duane S. Nickell provides a scientific and historical overview of each theme, followed by detailed descriptions of the related sites within that theme. With over 40 illustrations, the book gives readers a visual understanding of what they will experience at most locations. For those readers who want to use the book as a trip planner, Nickell also includes a state-by-state listing of the attractions and identifies must-see exhibits at many of the space museums featured. Travelers and armchair tourists will be entertained by the illustrations and scientific descriptions of these out-of-this-world attractions.
