Description:...

 When I stare at a starry sky, I understand why humans should explore space.  In the book, Moon Race, I learn about the first chase to space.  Much of the technology we have today is a spin-off from this race to the Moon.  This include critical parts of computers and smartphones. 

The second, simple book, Space Maps shows the importance of courage and directions.  Like GPS Map Apps on earth, space treks need maps too. On Earth, fossils are likes time maps.  They show 

past earth life that is now extinct.  Long term, we humans need a back-up home planet.

The starry sky is full of light dots, that are distance
suns.  There are more earth-like planets in space. 
How do we get there?  The quest to find another
human home starts by going back to the moon now.
