The brand new edition of this favorite star watchers' handbook has all of its maps, tables, and charts updated to chronicle celestial events throughout the first decade of the twenty-first century.

Gatefold front and back covers open to show solar and lunar eclipses for the same ten-year period. A 22-page illustrated A-to-Z dictionary describes major celestial objects and events.
