TitleObserving the Messier Objects with a Small Telescope : In the Footsteps of a Great Observer
Author(s)Pugh, Philip
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer New York, 2012.
DescriptionXIV, 387 p. 296 illus., 99 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteObserving the Messier Objects with a Small Telescope lets the reader follow in Charles Messier's footsteps by observing the Messier objects more or less as the great man saw them himself! This book contains descriptions and photographs of?? his 110 cataloged objects, with instructions on how to find them without a computerized telescope or even setting circles. Messier's telescope (thought to be a 4-inch) was, by today's amateur standards, small. It also had rather poor optics by modern standards. The visual appearance of a Messier object is often very different from what can be imaged with the same telescope, and this book shows what you can see with a small telescope or even binoculars!

TitleObserving the Sun with Coronado??? Telescopes
Author(s)Pugh, Philip
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer New York, 2007.
DescriptionXXVI, 321 p : online resource
Abstract NoteAt around the turn of the millennium, the introduction of the Coronado range of solar telescopes and filters heralded the ???coming of age??? of amateur solar astronomy. Before then, solar astronomy was mostly white-light only. Hydrogen-alpha systems were expensive and difficult to use, but today even the budget-priced Coronado PST (Personal Solar Telescope) provides a band pass of one Angstrom and is thermally stable. That means that today???s amateur solar observers can see ??? and image ??? sunspots, flares, prominences, plage, filaments, and active regions of the Sun, all in amazing detail. Getting the very best out of a Coronado solar telescope still requires knowledge of specialist techniques and an accumulation of experience, which are what this book provides. In Observing the Sun with Coronado Telescopes, Philip Pugh has assembled a team of contributors who show just how much solar work can be done with Coronado telescopes, and explain how to get the very best from these marvellous instruments. The spectacular solar images reproduced in this book speak for themselves ??? listen to the voices of the experts!

TitleHow to Photograph the Moon and Planets with Your Digital Camera
Author(s)Buick, Tony;Pugh, Philip
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer New York, 2011.
DescriptionXX, 346 p. 357 illus., 60 illus. in color : online resource
Abstract NoteAlthough our Moon and the planets have not changed much in the five years since the first edition of this book was published, the technology allowing you to photograph them has changed dramatically. And the costs for equipment have come down significantly, opening all kinds of possibilities to the amateur and practical astronomer. With this practical guide to taking quality shots in your own backyard, with all the light pollution found in cities and towns today and using only very basic equipment, you will be amazed at what you can accomplish. Whether you want to dazzle friends or contribute to the scientific understanding of a particular body, whether you are a fan of solar photography or craters on the Moon, the rings of Saturn, or the bands of clouds that color Jupiter, in this book you will find help and support, and clear explanations of how best to proceed. This is a hobby you can stay with for a lifetime and keep on improving. You can get fancier equipment or just learn how to better post process your snaps. Either way, you can benefit from the knowledge and experience the authors of this book share. Don???t waste more time wishing you could capture the beauty found in the heavens! Read how, and get started now!
