Out of stockColorful folded pictorial map of the solar system showing the the space exploration, created shortly after the Apollo 8 mission, the first crewed spacecraft to leave low Earth orbit and the first to reach the Moon, orbit it, and return. The map is accompanied by a second separate folded sheet describing in detail (with nice design of each ship, information about carrier missiles and space suits, etc.) the most important missions from 1957 – 1968. The very interesting and decorative map shows the trajectories of both manned and unmanned spacecraft, the path of the solar system, Moon orbit, planetary orbits, relative sizes of the planets, satellites and space crafts. Includes colored reference at the lower margin. At least three editions of this map were published, this being an example of the second. The differences between the three editions revolve around the presence of Apollo missions: the first edition was published before the Apollo program began launching missions, while the second includes Apollo 8, the third edition includes the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon.
