Viewing and Imaging the Solar System: A Guide for Amateur
Astronomers is for those who want to develop their ability to
observe and image Solar System objects, including the planets and
moons, the Sun, and comets and asteroids. They might be beginners,
or they may have already owned and used an astronomical telescope
for a year or more. Newcomers are almost always wowed by sights
such as the rings of Saturn and the moons of Jupiter, but have
little idea how to find these objects for themselves (with the
obvious exceptions of the Sun and Moon). They also need guidance
about what equipment, besides a telescope, they will need. This
book is written by an expert on the Solar System, who has had a lot
of experience with outreach programs, which teach others how to
make the most of relatively simple and low-cost equipment. That
does not mean that this book is not for serious amateurs. On the
contrary, it is designed to show amateur astronomers, in a
relatively light-hearted-and math-free way-how to become serious.
