People live in interesting places all over the world. Some people even live above the world! First Space Station gives readers a glimpse at some of the very first long-term bases built for astronauts to study the moon, the stars, and even Earth itself. But how do you get something so big past Earth’s gravitational pull? What do people need to survive in space? And how will space stations help us learn more about our solar system? The Firsts in Outer Space series takes readers on a journey to the stars—and beyond.
