101 Outer Space Projects for the Evil Genius

This is a great book for anyone who is intrigued by the science of outer space. Written with older children and even adults in mind, the projects included in this book will help you use a GPS device, build rockets, build a radio, and much more.

This book is great for all serious outer space fans who want to discover more about astronomy and space exploration by building easy and also more complex projects. You will learn more about navigation, rocketry, telescopes, astrophotography, star gazing, space exploration, and even alien life forms. It also shows you how to use important equipment, such as a GPS device, a Silva compass, a few different telescopes, and other astronomy related equipment.

While the projects presented in this book my seem intimidating at first glance, the complete material lists, easy-to-follow plans, and step-by-step photographs make building them surprisingly easy to do. While I am not familiar with some of the supplies used in the projects contained in this book, the author claims all of the 'pieces and parts' needed can be found at your local hobby, craft, hardware, and toy stores. Some of the projects also require nothing more that a piece of paper, pencil, and your brain power; while other will help you explore many online resources and tools.

This book will lead you to:

• Experiment with model rockets
• Navigate your way through the universe using your computer
• Build your own telescope, radio telescope, and planetarium
• Read celestial maps of heavenly bodies
• Create a Mars rover to explore your home
• Design your own International Space Station

If you are a science fan fascinated by the stars and outer-space or just want to learn more about these topics, this book is for you!
