When astronauts look down at our planet from space, they experience the Overview Effect—a sense of awe and an awareness that everything is interconnected. Adapted for readers 9 and up from the adult book by the same title, this extraordinary collection of aerial photographs reveals the beauty of Niagara Falls, the Amazon River, and Mount Fuji, but also Central Park, the pyramids, Dubai's Burj Khalifa, and a variety of cities, farms, airports, refineries, and freeways. Retired astronaut Scott Kelly provides the foreword, and Benjamin Grant explains the satellite technology that made these images possible.
