    Throughout history, mastery of the skies has been one of mankind's greatest desires. From the first experiments with gliders to the most advanced air combat systems of the 21st century, military aviation has been a decisive factor in the technological, strategic and political development of the modern world.

    	From the flight of the first biplane fighters to the latest generation of autonomous drones, we will explore how each advance has redefined the art of war and the very conception of airspace.

    Brian Clegg's acclaimed popular science book Inflight Science explored the science experienced on a plane flight. Interstellar Tours takes that concept and goes large. It takes the reader on a tour of our galaxy on the starship Endurance. 
     
    That vessel itself is science fiction. But the phenomena you will visit, from the vast nebulae that are birthplaces of stars to stellar explosions in vast supernovas, creating the elements necessary for life - or from the planets of other solar systems to the unbelievably supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way - all reflect the best picture that current science has to offer. 
     
    Accompanying Interstellar Tours is an online gallery with over 50 images and videos in full colour, each directly accessible from the page using QR codes.
