Your Night Sky Companion

Is that bright object a planet or a star? What does the constellation Perseus look like? When's the next lunar eclipse? Find these answers and more in Simply Stargazing. The tabbed booklet covers most of the Northern Hemisphere and is organized by season and by such topics as "The Moon," "The Planets," and "Bright Deep Sky Objects." Full-sky charts make locating constellations simple and quick at any time of year. Plus, you'll learn about spotting satellites with the naked eye and deep sky objects with only a pair of binoculars. Timetables for eclipses and meteor showers further enhance your knowledge of stargazing. The booklet's pocket-sized format is much easier to use than laminated foldouts, and the tear-resistant pages help to make the book durable in the field. So keep Simply Stargazing by Jonathan Poppele close at hand on your next nighttime outing.
