Galaxies - the Milky Way's siblings - offer a surprising variety of
forms and colours. Displaying symmetrical spiral arms, glowing red
nebulae or diffuse halos, even the image of a galaxy can reveal
much about its construction. All galaxies consist of gas, dust and
stars, but the effects of gravity, dark matter and the interaction
of star formation and stellar explosions all influence their
appearances. This volume showcases more than 250 of the most
beautiful galaxies within an amateur's reach and uses them to
explain current astrophysical research. It features fantastic
photographs, unique insights into our knowledge, tips on
astrophotography and essential facts and figures based on the
latest science. From the Andromeda Galaxy to galaxy clusters and
gravitational lenses, the nature of galaxies is revealed through
these stunning amateur photographs. This well illustrated reference
atlas deserves a place on the bookshelves of astronomical imagers,
observers and armchair enthusiasts.
