Description

Discover the Moon: A Guide to Lunar Observation Explore the night sky with this easy-to-use guide to discovering lunar sites. Suitable for beginners and experienced astronomers alike, it takes you through fourteen observing sessions from New Moon to Full Moon. Each evening, the book shows which craters, mountains and other features can be seen, along with how to find them. Photographs show what the observer actually sees through a telescope, helping to solve orientation difficulties. Maps printed on the front and back flaps of the book provide a visual guide to the whole Moon as seen through different types of telescopes. Written by two experienced astronomers, this guide is perfect for anyone looking to get started with lunar observation or improve their skills.
