It shows you how to understand and enjoy the cosmos, building your practical astronomy skills from the basics to more advanced techniques.Beginning with an explanation of the Universe itself - how big is it, what shape is it, how old is it, and will it end? - it then takes you on a tour around the night sky, building up your knowledge in simple stages. Practical advice begins with naked-eye observations, then illustrated step-by-step instructions show you how to set up and use binoculars and telescopes and how to take your own pictures of the night sky. It also lets you take a closer look at the different objects you can view in the night sky, telling you how to train your eye to recognize basic patterns of stars (constellations) and how to tell planets apart from other celestial bodies, showing you how to observe them in an innovative step-by-step way. An atlas of the night sky is also included, with charts that can be used in both the northern and southern hemispheres throughout the year.Accessible, inspirational, and authoritative, The Practical Astronomer will enthuse and inform anyone who wants to expand their knowledge of the night sky. An essential reference tool for both beginning and veteran sky observers. Drawing on decades of stargazing experience, the authors suggest what equipment to buy and what to avoid, describe observing techniques, and explain how to hunt down the most interesting celestial objects. Each chapter is illustrated with the latest, breathtaking astrophotography.This companion is broken down into three parts: Equipment for Backyard Astronomy, Observing the Celestial Panorama and Astrophotography. It focuses on the practical aspects of astronomy.Among many astronomy subjects, the authors offer advice on how to contend with light pollution, and how to take successful and impressive color photographs of galaxies and nebulas (with or without a telescope). Each chapter is written in clear, jargon-free yet detailed. Explore the star-studded cosmos with this fully updated, user-friendly skywatcher\'s guide, filled with charts, graphics, photographs, and expert tips for viewing -- and understanding -- the wonders of space.Stargazing\'s too much fun to leave to astronomers.

Essential information, organized logically, brings the solar system, stars, and planets to life in your own backyard. Start with the easiest constellations and then star-hop across the night sky to find others nearby.

Photographs and graphics present key facts in an easy-to-understand format, explaining heavenly phenomena such as black holes, solar flares, and supernovas.
