The Secrets of Mars: Astronomy: The Science of the Heavenly Bodies by David P. Todd

Did you know that it was once a widespread belief that Mars had canals? It was much debated through the early 20th Century and tonight’s bedtime reading is from an astronomy book from back when people thought it may be possible!

As you prepare to sleep learn about the great debate, the challenges involved in looking at our neighbour and also learn about what was though to be required for life on other planets.
