- Credits, licence & sources

Pages: 8 (including cover and credits). Sizes: A4 (210 × 297 mm) and US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), both PDFs included in one zip.

Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter, so nothing gets squashed. Inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; covers are dark, so start from page 2 to save ink.

Every fact is checked against Encyclopaedia Britannica, NASA Glenn Research Center and the Science Museum Group (checked 31 Oct 2026), and the sources are listed on each pack’s credits page. Historic pictures are public domain via Wikimedia Commons (credited on the credits page); the how-it-works poster is our own diagram. Drawings, puzzles and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work. Not endorsed by Britannica, NASA or the Science Museum Group.

Licence: personal and single-classroom use. You may print as many copies as you need for your own family or your own class, and share it with your class through a password-protected platform. Please don’t resell, re-upload or share it publicly. For school-wide use, please email info@reallybyte.com.
