Thanks! A good place to start might be Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything.
If you haven't read Lives of the Planets, go get a copy! You would love it.

I'm still waiting for real model sets. that you have to glue together. I have never found any space models except for the shuttle and the ISS.
I would love to start building my fleet of space craft. I just don't understand why there is so little on the market.
You might find what you're looking for in Emily Lakdawalla's excellent book "The Design and Engineering of Curiosity: How the Mars Rover Performs Its Job".
Emily Lakdawalla is publishing a comprehensive book on the details of the engineering of Curiosity. It looks like it's out in May. She's a planetary scientist who writes for the Planetary Society, and I can't recommend her stuff highly enough. If it's for an assignment, a month and a half might be too long to wait, of course.
I bought 3d glasses from china for this.
I'm so glad they came yesterday!
