SynopsisHow do we know that the temperature on Venus is nearly 900 degrees Fahrenheit or that the Martian sky is pink? And what about those beautiful rings around Saturn? NASA scientists have been launching satellites into space to answer many questions. Some of the most exciting unmanned probes that have explored the solar system are highlighted in this latest addition to the Countdown to Space series. Readers will learn about Magellan as it orbits Venus and how Voyager flew by Saturn. Readers will learn about the Pathfinder landing on Mars and what scientists discovered about the Red Planet. The latest highlights of Galileo's exploration of Jupiter are also included.
