Maintaining its appealing style and presentation, the Yearbook of
Astronomy 2023 contains comprehensive jargon-free monthly sky notes
and an authoritative set of sky charts to enable backyard
astronomers and sky gazers everywhere to plan their viewing of the
year's eclipses, comets, meteor showers and minor planets as well
as detailing the phases of the Moon and visibility and locations of
the planets throughout the year. To supplement all this is a
variety of entertaining and informative articles, a feature for
which the Yearbook of Astronomy is known. Presenting the reader
with information on a wide range of topics, the articles for the
2023 edition include, among others, The Incomparable Sir Patrick
Moore; Shining a Light on Jupiter's Atmosphere; A Brief History of
the End of the Universe; The Closing of Historic Observatories; The
Ability to Believe: Bizarre Worlds of Astronomical Antireality;
Optical SETI at Harvard; The Future of Spaceflight; and Male Family
Mentors for Women in Astronomy: Caroline and William Herschel. This
iconic publication made its first appearance way back in 1962,
shortly after the dawning of the Space Age. Now into its seventh
decade of production, the Yearbook continues to be essential
reading for anyone lured and fascinated by the magic of astronomy
and who has a desire to extend their knowledge of the Universe and
the wonders it plays host to. The Yearbook of Astronomy is indeed
an inspiration to amateur and professional astronomers alike, and
warrants a place on the bookshelf of all stargazers and watchers of
the Universe.
