A fantastic book, written by Kent Wallace and described by some as the Planetary Observing bible. With over 1000 PNs listed and described, of which 400 were observed with 8" Celestron SCT, and more with observations using a 20" f/5 reflector plus galactic, Magellanic Clouds and proto planetary Nebulae plus planetary Nebula mimics.
Price is £28 (before P&P).
Produced by one of our Members who used to work for the Ordnance Survey. This atlas is the first of two volumes and covers the sky from RA 0 hours 00 minutes to 11 hours 59 minutes. There are charts of the whole sky, but more importantly, a detailed chart for each of the open clusters down to 16th magnitude. An excellent and probably unique atlas with a PDF sample of the content to download.

A set of five A3 size charts covering the whole sky with selected double stars highlighted for you to chase.
Information including magnitude, separation and position angle for each of these doubles is provided on the reverse of each chart.
Please click on either image for a larger view.
Both are supplied in a 330mm cardboard tube.
These books describe some of the brighter double stars to be found. Sketches are included where the field of view is interesting and as an aid to identification. Instruments used range from 10x50 binoculars to 250mm Newtonian reflectors.
Volume 1 covers the northern constellations.

Thousands of variable stars have been discovered over the past 300 years. The great majority are members of our galaxy. In the 20th century some fascinating objects were found, which turned out to be not stars but extragalactic systems, mostly at cosmological distances: galaxies, quasars or BL Lacertae objects.
