50 Things to See With a Telescope, by John A Read, explains everything needed to jumpstart a journey in astronomy. Readers will learn how to identify constellations, planets, stars, galaxies, nebulae, and more. Inquisitive stargazers will find planet hunting and star hopping easy with clearly plotted routes. Colorful images of the sky both as seen by the naked eye and detailed views from a telescope will aid in exploration.

Many fascinating cosmic objects can be easily spotted with the help of this book including beautiful Cassiopeia, regal Leo, the plentiful Kemble’s Cascade, the explosive Crab Nebula, and the rings of Saturn!

This easy-to-read, illustrated reference book will enrich every young person’s experience of the skies above.
