Stargazing: The Digital Astronomer by Patrick Moore
Bring astronomy into the backyard with this one-stop stargazing manual from the stars of the BC's The Sky at Night. These days, affordable telescopes, cameras, and software make it easy for anyone to explore and photograph the heavens. Here is all the information amateur astronomers need, including a month-by-month sky guide, large wall poster of the constellations, and a map of the Moon.
Sir Patrick Moore is the presenter of the world's longest-running television program--BBC TV's The Sky at Night, which was first broadcast in 1957. He is the author of more than 100 books, and has played a unique role in astronomy education and popularizing science over six decades. He was recently elected a Fellow of the Royal Society--something he shares with Sir Isaac Newton. Pete Lawrence appears regularly on The Sky at Night demonstrating practical astronomy with an emphasis on what can be seen in the night sky that month. He is an expert observer and photographer, and is known for spectacular astronomical images, several of which have been featured on the NASA website--Astronomy Picture of the Day.
