Wars are not just fought on the ground--militaries around the world have looked to the sky (and beyond) for many years. In order to employ technology such as rockets and satellites in warfare, engineers and other military members had to develop a strong understanding of STEM. This understanding is shared with readers through engaging text that presents common curriculum topics through a high-interest lens. Additional information is provided through sidebars and graphic organizers, and full-color photographs enhance this exciting reading experience. Critical-thinking questions are also included to help readers further engage with the material.
