The Little Spacecraft That Could

Description

From the author and illustrator of If You Had Your Birthday Party on the Moon, a new out-of-this-world account of New Horizons–the spacecraft that journeyed to Pluto and changed the way scientists study outer space. Ride along with the New Horizons spacecraft as she rockets three billion miles to Pluto! Watch her take the first close-up photos of Pluto, and then journey another billion miles to mini-world Arrokoth. You’ll whiz through space at more than 10 miles per second; learn how giant planet Jupiter helped the little spacecraft reach Pluto; and discover the astonishing surface feature that made the world fall in love with Pluto.
