If you like Basics of Space Flight, you will also like NASA/JPL's Basics of Radio Astronomy, which is another down-to-Earth workbook on an out-of-this-world subject.
And for the younger audience, be sure to visit The Space Place site at JPL, a cool place where kids can explore and do spacey things.


Here are a few selected links related to interplanetary space flight. Some appear elsewhere in Basics of Space Flight, and some do not.
