A seasonal guide to the night sky

Organized by season, this compact guide brings together sky charts, photographs, and illustrations to help identify constellations and locate objects in the night sky. Its coverage ranges from the Moon and planets to meteor showers and deep-sky objects, with observation tips and a meteor-shower timetable adding practical reference material. Six full-sky charts are designed for use throughout the year, while the tabbed format and tear-resistant pages suit taking the booklet outdoors. The guide also introduces the ecliptic and zodiac as part of its broader overview of what can be observed overhead.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults beginning to explore stargazing and sky identification
  • Casual observers seeking a portable, seasonal reference
  • Readers interested in constellations, planets, meteor showers, and deep-sky objects

To gaze skyward is to be filled with wonder. You might find yourself asking questions like, "Is that bright object a planet or a star? What does the constellation Perseus look like? When's the next meteor shower?" Find these answers and more in Simply Stargazing.

The tabbed booklet is simple and convenient to use, with full-color photographs and illustrations. Topics are organized by season for quick and easy identification, and award-winning author Jonathan Poppele offers observation tips and instructions on everything from the moon, planets, and deep-sky objects to the ecliptic and the zodiac.

  • Six full-sky charts make locating constellations a snap at any time of year.
  • You'll learn about spotting planets, meteor showers, and more.
  • A timetable for meteor showers further enhances your knowledge of stargazing.
  • The booklet's pocket-size format is much easier to use than laminated foldouts, and the tear-resistant pages help to make the book durable in the field.

Keep Simply Stargazing close at hand on your next nighttime outing.
