Deep-Sky Companions: The Messier Objects（ISBN=9780521553322） 英文原版 115盘 下载 pdf txt 电子版 mobi snb docx

The 110 galaxies, star clusters and nebulae catalogued by the

comet hunter Charles Messier in the late 1700s are still the most

widely observed celestial wonders in the heavens. They are the

favourite targets of amateur astronomers, with such rich variety

and detail that they never cease to fascinate. This book provides

new and experienced observers with a fresh perspective on the

Messier objects. Stephen James O'Meara has prepared a visual feast

for the observer. Using the finest optical telescopes available for

amateur work, superior eyepieces and the darkest site on Earth, he

describes and sketches the view from the telescope as never before.

There are new drawings, improved finder charts, and new

astronomical data on each object, including findings from the

Hubble Space Telescope. This is truly the Messier Guide for the

modern age.
