A night-by-night guide to studying the moon.
The moon is usually the first celestial body that captures a stargazer's attention and imagination. Throughout history, the moon has endured as a universal subject of myth, poems, entertainment and intense scientific endeavor.
In clear language and with full color photographs and illustrations throughout, Moon Observer's Guide offers practical guidance to amateur astronomers viewing Earth's only natural satellite. There is valuable advice for observing the Moon with the naked eye, binoculars and telescopes. Central to this book is a detailed 28-day guide to lunar features. Lunar geology and the various causes of physical features, such as craters and volcanoes, are described.
Also included are:
- Guidelines for choosing binoculars and telescopes
- Ways of recording observations
- Digital and conventional photography
- Using Internet resources, personal computers and lunar software programs
- Safety tips for observing the moon during solar and lunar eclipses
- Detailed moon maps
This book is an ideal reference for the growing numbers of beginning astronomers.
