Amazing pictures of objects in the Solar System, from the Nasa archives. This is more of a picture book, really. It's more like I'm lazily looking through it than actual reading.
I read about this book, and the matching exposition in an article in the New York Times. The pictures on the website were breath-taking, so I ordered the book. Some of them are pictures of the Earth taken from orbit, kinda like those of @Astro_Soichi on Twitter. Others are from other planets and moons, taken by space probes, some with false color. The writer worked with astronomers and astroscientists to ensure his false coloring was as close as possible to reality.
