Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times-bestselling author of The Secret World of Weather and The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs, learn to tap into nature and notice the hidden clues all around you Before GPS, before the compass, and even before cartography, humankind was navigating. Now this singular guide helps us rediscover what our ancestors long understood—that a windswept tree, the depth of a puddle, or a trill of birdsong can help us find our way, if we know what to look and listen for. Adventurer and navigation expert Tristan Gooley unlocks the directional clues hidden in the sun, moon, stars, clouds, weather patterns, lengthening shadows, changing tides, plant growth, and the habits of wildlife. Rich with navigational anecdotes collected across ages, continents, and cultures, The Natural Navigator will help keep you on course and open your eyes to the wonders, large and small, of the natural world.

Book excerpt: Stargazing is among the most peaceful and inspiring outdoor activities. Night Sky, the award-winning book by Jonathan Poppele, makes it more fun than ever! Take a simple approach to finding 62 constellations by focusing on one constellation at a time, instead of attempting to study dizzying charts. Start with the easy-to-find constellations during each season and work toward the more difficult ones. Better yet, you'll learn how to locate any constellation in relation to the Big Dipper, the North Star and the top of the sky. With two ways to locate each constellation, you'll know where in the sky to look and what to look for! Along the way, you'll be introduced to mythology, facts and tidbits, as well as details about the planets, solar system and more! As an added bonus, the book comes with a red-light flashlight for night reading.

This book was released on 2017-03-05 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Introduction. The ability to recognize the more brilliant stars and to locate the more conspicuous constellations or star groups, is both an interesting and a useful acquirement. The number of people who have a real interest in popular astronomy and a fair acquaintance with the stars and constellations is steadily increasing and they find real pleasure in their information. To the meteorologist who would make observations of the position of the streamers of the Aurora Borealis or locate the place of the appearance and disappearance of bright meteors, a knowledge of the stars and constellations is absolutely necessary. The best way to locate the position of an auroral streamer without the use of apparatus is to observe the stars between which and over which it extends. Similarly the point of appearance and disappearance of a meteor has been definitely determined if the nearest star in each case has been noted. If great exactness is desired, the angular distance and direction of the point in question from the nearest star may be estimated. Whenever an object is thus located by means of the stars, the exact time of observation and the place of observation (latitude, longitude, and elevation) must also be stated. From such observations made at two, preferably more, stations, the distance, height, and direction of an auroral display, and the distance, height, direction of motion, velocity of motion, and orbit in space of a meteor may be determined by computation. The purpose of the constellation tracings and the descriptive material here given, is to serve as a guide in taking the first steps in learning the stars and constellations and also to point the way to the acquisition of further information on the part of those who desire it. The method here followed and the material presented is essentially the same as that used in the course on Descriptive Astronomy in Williams College.
