A self-portrait of the mars rover, pictures of footprints on the moon and satellite images of the most remote places in our solar system have all been taken from Nasa’s archives to commemorate the 60th birthday of the world’s most famous space agency.
The collection contains over 400 pictures that show Nasa’s achievements in space travel as well as the humans that have driven them.
Accompanying the photos is text charting Nasa’s past, present and future from the book’s editor, Piers Bizony, and Nasa historians.
The Nasa archives is available now from Taschen.
