Astronomy: Atlases

Astro-photographer Legault and Brunier present images first of the whole moon each day through its 27-day cycle, and then of specific features--mostly mares--with information about them. A third section describes the moon's motion and eclipses and provides calendars, advice for viewing and photographing the moon, and a glossary. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Intended to provide general readers with a tour of the cosmos, from the solar system (first half of the volume, treated in wonderful detail) to the outer edge of deep space.

A mosaic of the entire sky, unparalleled in detail and completeness, an indispensable atlas for visual observers and astrophotographers.
