He is the lead author of college textbooks in four subjects--astronomy, astrobiology, mathematics, and statistics--and has written critically acclaimed books for the general public including Beyond UFOs and On the Cosmic Horizon. He is also the author of children's books, including those in the Science Adventures with Max the Dog series and The Wizard Who Saved the World. He lives in Boulder, Colorado. Alan Okamoto (1957-2012) was well-known for his work as a space artist; through the Story Time from Space program, many of his children's illustrations have orbited Earth aboard the International Space Station.
