treasury presents 100 eclectic objects—
from Stonehenge to Sputnik—and
explains their significance to the
history of space exploration
What do UFOs, astrology, the Apollo 11 moon
landing, and Elon Musk’s launch of a sports car
into orbit all have in common? How about the
Challenger and Columbia shuttle accidents, or
NASA’s close-up view of Pluto?
All of these objects (and the seminal events
related to them) captivated public attention and
allowed us to contemplate a larger universe.
Some are potent urban myths, legends, and failed
mythologies. Others are seemingly miraculous and
rock-hard revelations from science.
In this eclectic guide to the history of space
exploration, told through the lens of 100 objects,
author Sten Odenwald shows how our modern
intuitions about space, and our exploration of
it, have been sculpted by more than just the
geopolitically potent launch of Sputnik.
For the past century, space has become a
pastiche of awe-inspiring scientific discoveries,
far-out technological gadgetry, and emotionally
visceral events. Together, they form the history of
space in popular imagination.

STEN ODENWALD is an astronomer, NASA scientist, educator

and also the author of The Astronomy Cafe, The 23rd Cycle,
Patterns in the Void, and Back to the Astronomy Cafe. Since
receiving his PhD in astronomy from Harvard University in 1982,
he has been an astronomer in the Washington, DC area, primarily
at NASA. He is currently the director of the Centers for Integrative

illustrated introduction to our earliest
relatives—the first sapiens and their
relatives, origins, characteristics, and
earliest migrations
Few disciplines have experienced such significant
changes over the last few years as has the study
of prehistory. Thanks to the progress of science of
genetics, now we know that 40,000 years ago, we
shared the planet with three other species of the
Homo genus. As for new dating methods, they have
taught us that sapiens left its African cradle a good
100,000 years earlier than we had first thought . . .
Meanwhile, anthropology has tackled the issue
of what is inherent to mankind: Is it the use of
tools? The presence of a “large” brain? Articulated
language? Bipedalism? Empathy? All of this
suggests the urgent need to take stock of our
ancestors and to listen to the latest news on
Homo sapiens.
Not only do the authors deliver a valuable
overview of the latest findings on the topic, they
also look at the future of our strange species.
They offer a riveting account of the social animals
that we are: migrants with a rapidly expanding
population, who have forever transformed their

environment.

SILVANA CONDEMI is a paleoanthropologist and research

director at CNRS, the largest French public scientific research
organization, at the University of Marseille. FRANÇOIS SAVATIER
is a journalist for the magazine Pour la Science, where he

biography for kids about one of the

explorers of all time
This is the story of German explorer Alexander von
Humboldt, to be published at the time of his 250th
birthday celebrations in September 2019.
Starting at the beginning with his upbringing
and education, experienced travel writer Volker
Mehnert follows Humboldt on his travels to South
America, his visit to the US, his journey through
Russia, and his rise to fame back in Europe.
From the island of Tenerife to his travels along
the Orinoco and his trek across the Andes,
Humboldt examines everything he sees along the
way. He discovers new waterways, draws maps,
and makes notes he uses for his later works, which
will go on to inspire a generation of scientists after
him—Charles Darwin among them.
Readers, young and old alike, will be whisked
away and inspired to see the world through the

eyes of one of the greatest scientists of all time.

VOLKER MEHNERT was born in 1951 and spent many

years living in Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the US
as a freelance travel writer and author. CLAUDIA LIEB
studied communication design in Münster and at Hamburg
University of Applied Sciences. She lives in Munich, where
she works as an illustrator and graphic artist.
