The 500 most beautiful deep sky objects with maps and photos
The "Atlas for Sky Watchers" is a legend among amateur astronomers and has been the top recommendation for over 25 years. Now this standard work is available in a completely revised edition: in a larger format, with new colour star charts, with the latest data from the Gaia space probe and unique comparison images of celestial objects. This makes it even easier to find star clusters, gas nebulae and galaxies.
In total, the atlas presents 500 of the most beautiful deep sky objects that can be observed with binoculars and a telescope. This guarantees quick orientation for beginners and offers amateur astronomers many exciting hours under the night sky.
The author Erich Karkoschka works as a specialist in planetary research at the Lunar and Planetary Center in Tucson, USA.
