Exploring the Night Sky

Presents a look at the "universe in 40 jumps'' and takes the reader from the Moon (1.3 light-seconds) to the galactic field in general (300 million light-years) with a quick spin about the solar system, adding season-by-season charts of the planets, stars, and constellations visible from North America. Dozens of color paintings and some photographs accompany the text, and there is a page of advice on choosing and using binoculars and telescopes.--From source other than Library of Congress.
