(Space) The Solar System
If you wanted a map that could bring you up to what speed with good understanding of the Solar System at the time, this is probably the best visual compendium you could find. This, the 9th edition of this map for our home Solar System was first printed in 1970 and would give a perspective on the greater neighborhood of planets and how earth fit into the pattern of orbits. Includes the planets (and, yes, Pluto) as well the major comets. The verso is a rich history of ancient to modern understandings of the system and focus on each planet and their moons.
Condition is very good. Size is approximately 33 x 49.5 (inches)
