Readers are taken on an imaginary space mission to explore the far side of the Moon for the first time in human history. In this adventure into deep space, readers will be the first astronauts to set foot on the far side of the Moon, where the light is low, temperatures are extreme and the surface is pitted with craters that are so deep they have never been exposed to sunlight. What lies within may reveal incredible secrets about our universe, and provide a stepping stone to Mars and beyond. Illustrated in a dreamy science-fiction style, this book places readers in the moon boots of a mission specialist, appointed to undertake the first crewed mission to the far side of the Moon in human history.
