Summer
Stargazing
is a succinct, but valuable explanation of
astronomy. The book puts a fascinating and
complicated field in simple perspective. Running
outdoors at night can bring many questions about
the night sky. See page 12 to find out why the dark
side of the crescent moon isn't always so dark. See
page 49 to find out which Winter constellation has
more bright stars than any other constellation.
Learn about the Ecliptic or planetary pathway, as
it explained on pages 16 and following. On pages
18-19 learn how to use your hand or fist to measure
degrees, based on a 360-degree circle in the sky.
Get this system down and you will also understand
how to measure the angle of the arm at the shoulder
joint. Straight overhead is 180 degrees. Beautiful
pictures of the moon, planets, meteors, comets,
auroras and more. |

A
Nature Company Guide
Skywatching
is an excellent book to read about astronomy by the
fireplace. It contains a lot of history as well as
the science of astronomy. You can slos take this
book with on a cruise or vacation in Southern
Lattitudes, because numerous sky charts show views
from Southern Lattitudes as well as Northern
Lattitudes. In Southern Lattitudes the Big Dipper
(Ursa Major) falls below the North horizon in July
through February. In the middle of this period, the
Big Dipper is totally buried below the horizon.
Excellent explanation of the mythology behind major
constellations, too. |
