Descriptionxvi, 148p.
Series(Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)
Abstract NoteReal Astronomy with Small Telescopes tells you everything you’ll need to know about how to get started on "real" astronomy using a small telescope (and ideally a digital camera), and make a real contribution to our scientific knowledge. This book is the necessary introduction to real astronomy – derived from the author’s many years of experience in teaching the subject – that can be your starting point for serious work. Here, the emphasis is on what you can do with a small telescope, rather than just on what you can see through it.

TitleAstronomy with small telescopes: Up to 5-inch, 125 mm
Author(s)Stephen F. Tonkin (ed.)
PublicationLondon, Springer-Verlag, 2001.
Descriptionxiii, 157p.
Series(Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series)
Abstract NoteSmall telescopes have a lot to recommend them. Cost is of course a consideration, but their most positive feature is sheer portability. Some manufacturers have tried to make large telescopes more portable (with mixed success), but the opposite approach, that of making small telescopes more effective, is what this book is all about. Good 2-inch (60mm) telescopes are now available for beginners, and major American manufacturers now offer small, affordable computer-controlled instruments that are capable of superb results. Stephen Tonkin has gathered the experience of users of small telescopes to provide an insight into just what is possible - for newcomers to astronomy or experienced observers who simply want to use a small, really portable telescope.
