Hardback. Zustand: Good. Turn Left at Orion is a guidebook for beginning amateur astronomers. The Moon, planets and nearly a hundred deep sky objects, visible in the Northern hemisphere, are shown exactly as they appear in a small telescope (50?75 mm, or 2?3 inches aperture). The book provides all the information you need to find these, and other objects, in the night sky. There are plenty of maps to get you located, and the large format drawings accurately depict what you can expect to see. For each object there is information on the current state of our astronomical knowledge. Unlike many guides to the night sky, this one is specifically written for observers using small telescopes. No previous knowledge of astronomy is needed, and since the descriptions are non-technical, sky-watchers of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy and profit from this book. In the revised edition of this successful book, first published in 1989, the authors have brought information on the planets and eclipses up to date and extended the tables to the year AD 2006.…

Zustand: NEAR FINE. First printing. A book which "explores the various aspects of the solar system planet by planet. Along the way, it illustrates by example how science is 'done,' and constantly goes beyond the issue of merely 'What do we know,' to ask such questions as 'What motivates our questions?' and 'How do we go about finding the answers?' Each chapter begins with a purely descriptive section about a planet; then includes two sections on topics that are related to the planet in question (e.g., atmospheric chemistry and Venus; the generation of magnetic fields and Jupiter). Later chapters consider more difficult topics such as planetary satellites, comets and the solar wind, and the origin of the solar system." SIGNED on the title page by Brother Guy J. Consolmagno, SJ, an award-winning American research astronomer, physicist, religious brother, and director of the Vatican Observatory, one who believes in the need for science and religion to work alongside one another. Uncommon signed. Illustrated with black and white photographs, numerous charts and drawings. Several appendices, index. Small quarto. xii, 323 pp. Near fine in glossy illustrated boards (a few nicks to the bottom edge), no dust jacket.…
