Planetary Maps ~Illustrated Solar System~: What if we could travel through space? What if we could live in space?

"Shall we go to Mars next holiday?" "Or maybe the moon?" A picture book that stimulates children's scientific minds, revealing things parents don't know and schools don't teach.

With concrete research underway on plans for human colonization of Mars, traveling to planets is no longer science fiction.

This book, from the perspective of a potential future destination, teaches children about the universe, especially the "solar system," which is like a neighbor to Earth.

Featuring characters children can relate to, it introduces each planet in a fun way, even for younger children, as they journey together.

Each planet is based on research data known as of May 2018, so it includes things even adults don't know, such as "Are there living things on Jupiter's moons?", "Does Uranus smell like farts?", "Would houses on the moon be built underground by digging holes?"

The authors, the Space Brothers, are a unit active in the Japan Space Youth Association, a public interest incorporated foundation, which conducts space education in various locations in cooperation with JAXA.

They are professionals at conveying accurate knowledge while capturing children's interest.

Experience authentic space education that you can't learn in school through this picture book.
