Book Synopsis How We See the Sky by : Thomas Hockey
Download or read book How We See the Sky written by Thomas Hockey and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2011-09-12 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gazing up at the heavens from our backyards or a nearby field, most of us see an undifferentiated mess of stars—if, that is, we can see anything at all through the glow of light pollution. Today’s casual observer knows far less about the sky than did our ancestors, who depended on the sun and the moon to tell them the time and on the stars to guide them through the seas. Nowadays, we don’t need the sky, which is good, because we’ve made it far less accessible, hiding it behind the skyscrapers and the excessive artificial light of our cities. How We See the Sky gives us back our knowledge of the sky, offering a fascinating overview of what can be seen there without the aid of a telescope. Thomas Hockey begins by scanning the horizon, explaining how the visible universe rotates through this horizon as night turns to day and season to season. Subsequent chapters explore the sun’s and moon’s respective motions through the celestial globe, as well as the appearance of solstices, eclipses, and planets, and how these are accounted for in different kinds of calendars. In every chapter, Hockey introduces the common vocabulary of today’s astronomers, uses examples past and present to explain them, and provides conceptual tools to help newcomers understand the topics he discusses. Packed with illustrations and enlivened by historical anecdotes and literary references, How We See the Sky reacquaints us with the wonders to be found in our own backyards.

Book Synopsis Discover the Stars by : Richard Berry
Download or read book Discover the Stars written by Richard Berry and published by Crown. This book was released on 1987-12-13 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible, informative guide to identifying constellations and other incredible features of the sky, whether you’re hiking, camping, or stargazing from your backyard. Discover the Stars leads you on a tour of all the stars and constellations visible with the naked eye and introduces you to deep-sky objects that can be seen with binoculars or a simple telescope. The tour is conducted by the editor of Astronomy magazine, Richard Berry, whose two-color, computer-plotted sky maps and clear instructions make stargazing fun and productive from your first night out. The heart of Discover the Stars is two sections of big, beautiful sky maps and charts. The first section features twelve maps that show the entire sky overhead as it appears during each month of the year. These outline all the constellations visible anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere, and the accompanying text reveals the rich ancient mythology that surrounds the star groups. The second section is made up of twenty-three star charts that depict smaller regions of the sky in great detail. These charts give the names of key stars and lead you to fascinating features such as stars with unusual colors, double stars, variable stars, nebulae, and galaxies. Separate chapters cover basics, such as how the stars move through the sky, how to find your way around the moon and the planets, making an astronomer's flashlight, and choosing and using a telescope—all in terms that are easy to grasp and remember. Discover the Stars is the perfect introduction to the heavens, simple enough to be useful if you're just starting out but packed with enough information to keep you learning and enjoying the stars for years to come.

Download or read book Astronomy With the Naked Eye written by Garrett Putnam Serviss and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Astronomy With the Naked Eye: A New Geography of the Heavens, With Descriptions and Charts of Constellations, Stars, and Planets The specific things undertaken in this book are: First, the presentation of a set of star-charts, accompanying and illustrating the text, and containing the constellation figures, so that the reader may see those strange forms that the imaginations of men for thousands of years have drawn in the sky. The charts also contain all the stars that have received distinctive names, and with these all the other stars that the unaided eye readily perceives. The sixth-magnitude stars are visible to ordinarily good eyes, but they are inconspicuous. The charts are reductions from Heis's Atlas Cælestis. A chart of the southern sky has been added to cover the constellations not visible from our latitudes. Second, the march of the constellations across the sky, resulting from the annual revolution of the earth in its orbit, is followed from month to month, and they are presented in the text according to the times of their successive arrivals near the meridian, the north and south line of the sky.
