Best space picture book yet

Deep Space gives huge, high resolution photographs of galaxies, nebula, and many other parts of the universe and explains their form and structure clearly and accurately. The latest science is covered, including the acceleration in expansion of the universe and the theoretical role of dark energy. This is science publishing at its best. The beauty of deep space structures is shown in such scale and color that anyone can be thrilled without the least understanding of what they are viewing. For those who want to learn about astronomy, the text is deep. Deep Space beats any book or TV documentary I have seen with its detail and beauty. It's worth every penny, but if you are lucky you might find it on the bargain table.
