In the past three decades, the golden age of planetary exploration, all the planets of the Solar Sytem except Pluto have been extensively explored and photographed by robotic spacecraft. This book draws on the results of those explorations to present the definitive guide to the Solar System as we know it, complementing some of the finest images of the planets yet seen with explanations of how such images were produced and what they tell us about our planetary neighbours.
