About the Book

In this fun adventure novel for young readers, Zack and his older sister, Taylor, were enjoying the last few days of their summer vacation when they made a fantastic discovery. A mysterious box buried in the sand with an unusual telescope inside. Where did it come from? Who does it belong to and why was it buried? Soon Zack and Taylor uncover the telescope's amazing ability to instantly transport them to wherever the telescope is aimed! Will the universe ever be the same? Will they?
About the Author: Peter A. Oppenheim has been fascinated with astronomy and space travel since watching the first Moon landing as a child on Long Island, New York. Today he is an avid astrophotographer taking images of nebulae, galaxies and other astronomical wonders from his self-built observatory. His photographs have been featured in major magazines such as Astronomy and Time Off. Mr. Oppenheim has been an active volunteer in Project Astro Nova which teams astronomers with teachers to bring hands-on astronomy to the classroom. "I love seeing the excitement in the students' faces when we talk about space. They have a wonder and amazement that too many of us lose as we get older," says the author. He frequently attends "star parties" held by schools and youth organizations, bringing one of his telescopes and sharing first hand views of Saturn to the delight of participants. As a Friend of the FitzRandolph Observatory at Princeton University, he has assisted in the hunt for extraterrestrial intelligence using the university's 36" telescope to search for artificial pulses of light. When he's not writing or attending NASA's Space Academy in Huntsville, Alabama, Mr. Oppenheim provides risk and crisis management services to large corporations. In his book The Telescope Travelers, his enthusiasm comes through clearly in this exciting new adventure story for readers ages 7 and up. In it, two children discover a mysterious telescope that has the power to transport them across space - after they do the dishes and finish their homework. While visiting various celestial objects, they learn new and surprising facts, and ponder the bigger mystery of the origins of this amazing device. A companion web site (www.thetelescopetravelers.com) offers an interactive, personalized night sky chart, astronomy-related puzzles, mazes and fun projects.
