Informazioni sugli autori: Sir Patrick Moore CBE, FRS is the world's most famous amateur astronomer. Author of over 100 books and award-winning presenter of the fifty-year-long BBC TV series The Sky at Night, Patrick is a well-known and much-loved figure, whose work in the fields of astronomy and broadcasting was recognized in 1967 with an OBE, in 1988 with a CBE, and in 2001 with a knighthood. Sir Patrick lives in Selsey, West Sussex.

HJP Douglas Arnold was a space photography expert and the perfect person to select the images for the book. Formerly at Kodak Ltd, when they supplied the film for the Apollo missions, he was in the BBC TV studio team for the later Apollo Moon landings and ran a space photography agency for many years. He was the author of several books on astronomy, photography, and its history. He died in 2006.
