Equally useful for the beginning observer and for the old hand, this atlas presents:
- a short introduction into observing the sky and a thorough description of the star charts and tables
- clearly arranged charts of all the stars visible with the unaided eye (up to 6th magnitude)
- enlarged chart sections for binocular observation, highlighting 250 interesting nebulae, galaxies, and stellar clusters (to magnitude 9)
- a catalog of more than 1,000 objects that takes into account the far-reaching measurements of the Hipparcos Satellite published in 1997
- tables of predicted separations of binary stars until the year 2015.
The Observers Sky Atlas is an indispensable and handy companion for every observer.
