Firsts in Outer Space

Earth is full of natural resources. To get to them, though, they must be mined, which is dangerous to people and the planet. Asteroids are full of those same minerals and metals. Mining them would be much safer! But would the First Asteroid Mining Mission even be possible? How would we be able to safely mine materials-and how would they get back to Earth? The Firsts in Outer Space series takes readers on a journey to the stars-and beyond.

The future of space exploration runs on wheels, gears, and joints. Grab a screwdriver and read all about the future of lunar landings with First Robot Mission. How could robots help people study and understand outer space? Where could they be used to save time or make missions safer? What are some of the special skills robots have to enhance the work astronauts do? The Firsts in Outer Space series takes readers on a journey to the stars-and beyond.

You might not ever step foot on another planet, but reading about the First Mars Landing is the next best thing! When did the first probe fly by the Red Planet, and what did the first lander see once it touched down? There's plenty to discover when no human has never seen it before! What does it take to send spacecraft millions of miles away, and when will people be able to make the trip for themselves? The Firsts in Outer Space series takes readers on a journey to the stars-and beyond.

Take a trip to the final frontier-into space! Pack your bags and read all about the future of vacations with First Space Tourists. How would people get into outer space, and how much would a one-way ticket cost? When did the first person imagine that it could even be possible? How close are scientists to sending people on the coolest holiday ever, and who's the closest to making it happen? The Firsts in Outer Space series takes readers on a journey to the stars-and beyond.

People live in interesting places all over the world. Some people even live above the world! First Space Station gives readers a glimpse at some of the very first long-term bases built for astronauts to study the moon, the stars, and even Earth itself. But how do you get something so big past Earth's gravitational pull? What do people need to survive in space? And how will space stations help us learn more about our solar system? The Firsts in Outer Space series takes readers on a journey to the stars-and beyond.

Telescopes help scientists peer into the night sky to study stars, planets, and beyond. Space telescopes are launched into space to give an even bigger picture of what could be out there. First Space Telescope looks at how these instruments can turn blurry dots into full focus. But how does this sensitive equipment get into space in the first place? Are there any risks once it's there? And how have space telescopes changed the way people see their place in the universe?
