From inside cover blurb: Geoff March has discovered more planets than anyone else in history. As a boy, he spent hours looking at the night sky, wondering what might be out there. He grew up to become an astronomer and planet hunter at a time when many thought it would be impossible to detect planets which might not even exist. March joined with Paul Butler and since 1995 they have discovered nearly half of the more than 400 known extrasolar planets. This is their story.

Beautiful color photos and illustrations add depth to this book. Interesting to older elementary school age through adult.
