There has never been such a wonderfully detailed atlas so handy to take on trips and use at the telescope, thanks to its compact size, convenient spiral-bound design, and easy-to read labels. The 80 charts contain more than 30,000 stars to magnitude 7.6 and some 1,500 deep-sky objects (including 675 galaxies to magnitude 11.5). All the Messier, Caldwell and Herschel 400 objects are included. Facing pages show contiguous areas, and indicators in the margins point to adjacent charts. The best double stars are named, and three dozen red (carbon) stars are marked. The charts show constellation boundaries and constellation lines to help you find your way. In the back are close-up charts of the Orion Nebula region, Pleiades, Virgo Galaxy Cluster, and Large Magellanic Cloud.
110 pages, 6 by 9 inches (9" x 13.5" laid out flat)
