Ever since the first astronauts traveled to space in the 1960s, scientists and engineers have worked hard to learn more about space travel. What kinds of spaceships will people use in the future? How will their needs be met during the long journey between Earth and some distant world? In this non-fiction graphic novel, Max Axiom and the Society of Super Scientists look for the answers to these questions and more as they learn about modern space tourism and the future of space travel.
