Synopsis
With Science Comics, you can explore the depths of the ocean, the farthest reaches of space, and everything in between! These gorgeously illustrated graphic novels offer wildly entertaining views of their subjects.
In this volume, get up close and personal with Earth's nearest neighbors―Venus with its acid rainstorms, Saturn and its rings of ice, and the heart of it all, the Sun. Humans have always been fascinated by outer space and we’re learning more about our solar system every day. Did you know that our Solar System was born from a cloud of cosmic dust? That Jupiter’s red spot is really a raging storm? Join Sara, Jill, and their space-faring pets on a quest to learn more about the wonders of our Solar System―and beyond!

About the Authors
Rosemary Mosco is a science writer and artist, and she’s passionate about sharing her love for the natural world. She writes and draws the science webcomic Bird and Moon and makes the urban nature webcomic Your Wild City in collaboration with fellow First Second author Maris Wicks.
Mosco has served in communications roles for nonprofits such as Mass Audubon and NPS, written for nature publications, and led unique nature walks. She holds an MS from UVM’s Field Naturalist and Ecological Planning Program.
If she could explore any place in the solar system, Mosco would travel to Jupiter’s moon Europa. Then she’d come back home and visit her favorite nature preserves on Earth, where she'd observe all the strange creatures and think about the possibilities for life on other planets.
Jon Chad lives in Vermont with his wife and daughter. He is the illustrator of Science Comics: Solar System, and the author of Leo Geo, Science Comics: Volcanoes, Science Comics: The Periodic Table of Elements, and Pinball: A Graphic History of the Silver Ball. Jon's graphic novel series, The Solvers, uses comics, and superhero action, to teach mathematics to young readers. His art is also featured in Steve Sheinkin's Diamond Fever.
