Each volume in the Planetary Exploration series has been designed to introduce aspects of the solar system to young readers. The text has been illustrated with artwork which provides a scientifically accurate portrayal of features of the planet's surfaces, and gives such details as a sunrise over the rings of Saturn and the total eclipse of the sun. This volume, which describes the Earth's satellite, contains a series of illustrations charting the evolution of the Moon and showing the formation of the major lunar oceans, the onset of volcanism and images of the lunar seas.
