Deep-sky observing - that's looking at the stars, nebulae and galaxies
- is easily the most popular field for amateur astronomers. The big
problem faced by non-professional observers is what to look at -
what's visible at a paticular time of year. The Deep-sky Observer's
Year is a month-by-month guide to the best objects to view. Objects
are given a "star rating" according to how difficult they are to
observe or image (i.e. photograph) with a particular size of
telescope. The book includes many images produced by amateur
astronomers, as well as photographs from NASA, ESA and ESO. There is
also some background information about the objects that can be seen,
along with lots of useful tips, hints, and resources (especially about
what's available on the Internet) for deep-sky observers.
