Touch the stars, Jupiter, a few galaxies...

Doesn't this sound fantastic?

From Amazon.ca:
Touch the Universe: A NASA Braille Book of Astronomy
With its tactile illustrations and combination of Braille and large- print captions, this unique astronomy book highlights the Hubble Space Telescope and its images of planets, stars and nebulae. The raised photographs allow students to feel the rings of Saturn, Jupiter's Red Spot, the density of stars in a globular cluster, and even the different shapes of galaxies (spiral, lenticular, elliptical) in a Hubble deep field image.
