Zephyros Press takes it to the next level in Astronomy with a Home Telescope! I am new to the Astronomy world & recently I've gotten really interested in whats in the sky. Most times when I am driving I will glance up and see stars & thats all I see. BUT find thats it so pretty & intriguing! In this book Zephyros touches base on all you need to know about the night sky. And explains in depth the top 50 celestial bodies.
I have learned so much from this book! I never knew that the brightest star was in fact the dog star (Sirius). Or maybe I am the only person who didn't know that! In this book I learned that some things we cannot see unless its the right time of the year. Which is exciting because there is always something to look forward to seeing! The sky has so many hidden treasures to view its simply amazing. I also thought everything in the sky was just stars & planets. I now know that there is the Moon, Planets, Stars, Clusters, Nebula, Galaxies & Phenomenons! I learned that the Moon is in fact 230,000 miles from the earth which Zephyros explains in great detail in chapter 2! The Moon is seriously everyone's focus point. Even when looking at it without a telescope, everyone is always like oh my look at the moon. Tonight its a full moon or a half cresent moon. Its always the topic at night time especially in my home. Zephyros also explains each celestial body in depth. From which season to look for it to the quality of say Mars if its a clear view and why its a clear view. He also provides the distance each Celestial body is from us and the directions on how to spot each one. He provides definitions of each & its origins story. I learned that "Mars was the Roman God of war known as Ares to the ancient Greeks". Also each celestials pop culture along with the ranking if its visibal or kinda visible. At the end of this book by Zephyros he provides 2 appendixes! Apendix A which is the Schedule of Solar Elipses & Apendix B which is the Schedule of Lunar Elipses! Also there is a glossary located at the back of the book with definitions for words you may not know meaning of or understand.
Overall I am very pleased with all the knowledge this book has given me! I've learned so much from this book & now have a bigger passion for everything in the night sky. And I am determined to find each Celestial Body! I definitely recommend Astronomy with a Home Telescope by Zephyros Press to anyone in the market looking to learn more about Astronomy & the Celestial Bodies!
