Collins' Atlas of the Night Sky covers everything that is visible in both the northern and southern hemispheres, and is suitable for both amateur and experienced astronomers alike.
The whole of the sky is covered in a series of charts, illustrated to a revealing magnitude of 6.5, with accompanying text detailing everything that can be seen. Each of the 88 constellations is illustrated with charts that have been specially commissioned for this project, making use of the latest data available. There is also planetary information for the next five years, and details of where in the sky the major planets can be seen, and at what time.
With comprehensive, original maps of the Moon's surface and details of craters and other named features, this is the definitive night sky atlas for every astronomer. - Gardners
