Description
The Cambridge Star Atlas by Wil Tirion is a comprehensive guide for astronomers and stargazers alike. This full-color star atlas features clear maps of the stars, clusters, and galaxies visible to the naked eye or with a small telescope, as well as constellation boundaries and the Milky Way. The atlas also lists interesting objects to observe, making it an ideal resource for both beginners and experienced observers. The latest edition of this popular atlas includes several enhancements, including a clearer map of the Moon's surface, a second Moon map for telescopes with star diagonals, and improved index charts to help you navigate the constellations. A new data table also lists stars hosting planetary systems, adding to the atlas's value for astronomers. With its spiral binding and compact size, this atlas is perfect for use at the telescope, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring the night sky.
