Discovering Deep Sky Objects helps you to find and learn about over 600 of the most notable astronomical objects visible to Northern Hemisphere observers. This book covers a wide range of galaxies, star clusters, nebulae, variables and fiercely red carbon stars, with descriptions of 386 of the best objects. Overview charts tailored to light polluted skies show the general position of the objects, while generously proportioned detail charts show the surrounding star patterns in detail, enabling an observer to locate the objects through a finder scope. Each object includes a description with location instructions, general data and any additional information and related objects.
