Summary Do aliens exist? Are UFOs real? The race is on to discover alien life in the universe! This book will sort myth from fact to bring you the real science behind the search for alien lifeforms. Space expert Joalda Morancy will take readers on a tour of the solar system (and beyond), on board new NASA missions searching for the most likely alien hiding places - from icy moons of Jupiter to the clouds of Venus. Along the way kids will find out about: the robots sent to Mars to look for Martians, what really goes on at Area 51, and ways to spot an advanced alien civilisation (hint - look for dim stars).
Target audience note 8-10 years old.
