This must have been my first "adult" book, given me when I was around 8. It may have set me on the course towards rabid sf fandom and what for a while was a concentration in science and mathematics (later exchanged for languages). The planetary science is horribly obsolete, of course, but the Bonestell illustrations are gorgeous and the book is a very nice publishing job.
