Beginners' knowledge, ideas and observation projects for the whole year
This makes it easy to get started in practical astronomy: 52 chapters explain everything amateur astronomers want to know. The content ranges from the basics of the world's oldest science to practical questions about operating a telescope and suggestions for observations for your first galactic experiences. All important topics for a basic introduction to this exciting hobby are discussed in an easy-to-understand and clearly illustrated manner. Practical relevance and completeness, geared to the actual problems of a hobby beginner, distinguish this book from other introductions to astronomy.
Thanks to its easy-to-navigate double-page structure, the book is equally suitable as a reference work and as a first guide. "Hobby Astronomer in 4 Steps" offers information on knowledge, equipment, observation and object tips for amateur astronomers and those who want to become one.
