"For those planning to...enjoy many fine celestial vistas, there is no better guide than Stephen O'Meara's book. For each object, a photograph, a finder chart, basic data and a quote from Messier's accounts are provided, with a discussion of what is seen through small telescopes, and some history of telescopic studies." Nature, ‘The book is well printed on heavy paper and both drawings and most of the photographs appear to have reproduced well. … I think this is an excellent book and a worthy replacement for The Messier Album and deserves a place on the bookshelf of both the novice and experienced amateur astronomer.’Owen Brazell, Webb Society Quarterly Journal, "This delightful observing companion by veteran astronomical observer, photographer, and writer O'Meara summarizes the basics of observing (including definitions, concepts, and sky descriptions), and methods and equipment involved...amateur observers...will find this book to be exceptionally useful because it also gives one of the best approaches to observing. Coordinates, size and brightness, distance, excellent description, finding chart, photograph, and a drawing are listed for each object....Highly recommended." Choice, ' … to be recommended to any serious backyard astronomer.' A. D. Andrews, Irish Astronomical Journal, 'The Messier Objects is packed with useful advice, historical facts, and interesting anecdotes.' Robert Argyle, The Observatory, "...will become the standard reference book of the Messier objects for years to come."

Owen Brazell, Webb Society Quarterly Journal, 'All in all, the book lives up to the author's claim about offering a new perspective and is thoroughly up to date and very readable book on the subject.

Synopsis
The Messier Guide for the modern age. Exquisite and highly detailed drawings made from the darkest skies on Earth are combined with a thoroughly modern text in this ultimate field guide to the finest galaxies, clusters and nebulae., The 110 galaxies, star clusters and nebulae catalogued by the comet hunter Charles Messier in the late 1700s are still the most widely observed celestial wonders in the heavens. They are the favourite targets of amateur astronomers, with such rich variety and detail that they never cease to fascinate. This book provides new and experienced observers with a fresh perspective on the Messier objects. Stephen James O'Meara has prepared a visual feast for the observer. Using the finest optical telescopes available for amateur work, superior eyepieces and the darkest site on Earth, he describes and sketches the view from the telescope as never before. There are new drawings, improved finder charts, and new astronomical data on each object, including findings from the Hubble Space Telescope. This is truly the Messier Guide for the modern age., If there were a canon for viewing the night sky, Charles Messier would be its author. The galaxies, star clusters, and nebulae cataloged by the famous comet hunter in the late 1700s are still the most widely observed celestial wonders in the heavens. They are the favorite targets of amateur astronomers, with such rich variety and detail that they never cease to fascinate. This book provides new and experienced observers with a fresh perspective on the Messier objects. Stephen James O'Meara has prepared a visual feast for the observer. Using the finest optical telescopes available for amateur work, he describes and sketches the view from the telescope as never before. There are new drawings, improved finder charts, and new astronomical data on each object, including findings from the Hubble Space Telescope. Expand your universe and test your viewing acumen with this truly modern Messier Guide. It is a must for budding night watchers. Stephen James O'Meara is a contributing editor to Sky and Telescope.

- t***o (2475)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoFirst off thank you for working a deal out with me on the price. Delivered in good time, magazine was wrapped in plastic, similar to saran wrap, then covered with cardboard, all four sides taped off with eBay scotch tape, then placed in a bubble wrapped bag that was sealed, then placed in an USPS shipping bag. Magazine is in pretty close to mint shape, if it was in its original delivery bag from MR, I would have been convinced that no one had read it. Thanks so much for taking good care of this.
