Would you like to make a trip to the Moon, or build your own nuclear reactor? Have you ever wanted to travel through time? Well, here's your chance! Whether you're interested in cloning budgies or building black holes, the "How to" guides tell everything the reader needs to know. These hands-on guides provide step-by step instructions on how to build a Moon rocket, clone a sheep, split the atom or make a time machine. And on the way to becoming a time traveller or nuclear genius, one can learn about the brilliant scientists who first made these discoveries - and about the slightly less brilliant scientists who didn't. This "How to" guide teaches how to become a rocket scientist and Moon-walking astronaut. Learn how astronauts first got to the Moon in 1969, and about the recent discoveries that would make setting up a Moon base much easier. Find out how to make your own space suit, how to survive on the Moon, and how to build a working rocket powered by liquid fuel.
