Journey to the Moon (The Science, History, and Future of Earth's Nearest Neighbour)

The human race's fascination with Earth's Moon reached fever pitch on July 20, 1969, but now, more than half a century on, we are living through the greatest lunar renaissance since the Apollo era.

In April 2026, four astronauts flew further from Earth than any humans since Apollo 17 – aboard Artemis II, the first crewed mission beyond low Earth orbit in over 50 years. In March 2025, Firefly Aerospace became the first commercial company to complete a fully successful soft landing on the Moon.

This fully updated edition celebrates everything we know and love about our nearest neighbour, and we answer the timeless questions:

• How was the Moon formed?
• What's on the far side?
• Who owns it? – and our guided tour of the craters and seas
• Plus, advice on photographing the Moon, makes this the perfect companion for any clear night.

Put together by a team of experts from All About Space, in each specific field, this book really is everything you need to know about the moon.
