The book Zoom took a "picture" of a SMALL part of the world and kept zooming out from it until it got to outer space. Every time you turn the page, you could guess or infer what you were looking at. This is related to perspective, because you can have a different view or idea on what you are looking at (a.k.a. the page). Everyone has a different view or prospective on what the page is showing.
Sometimes, I think I am viewing or seeing something correctly, but it turns out I have a bad prospective on it. If I get a different prospective on the subject, I can sometimes change my mind. Mindset, where I'm standing, and previous occurrences can all change my prospective on things.
In science anyone can be interested in my gathered data. For example, scientist could use my data for further research, or other people could use my data to make their own ideas. Scientists would probably be more interested in close-up data, where as to other people just want the overall view of things. When we study astronomy, prospective is very important, because depending on where and when you are, your prospective will change, because things in space are constantly moving.
