| Title | Go-to telescope under suburban skies |
| Author(s) | Neale Monks |
| Publication | New York, Springer, 2005. |
| Description | xxi, 260p. |
| Series | (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series) |
| Abstract Note | This book does not tell you how to use your Go-to telescope. Your manual will help you do that. It tells you what to look for in the deep sky and why, and what equipment to best see it with. Organized broadly by what is best for viewing in the northern hemisphere in different seasons, Monks further divides the sights of each season into groupings such as "Showpiece Objects," "Interesting Deep Sky Objects," and "Obscure and Challenging Deep Sky Objects." He also tells what objects are visible even in light-polluted skies. So armed with your go-to telescope, find an ideal viewing site or set up your telescope in your own backyard. Either way, youâre in for some fun! |

| Title | NexStar user's guide |
| Author(s) | Michael W. Swanson |
| Publication | London, Springer-Verlag, 2004. |
| Description | xviii, 296p. |
| Series | (Patrick Moore's Practical Astronomy Series) |
| Abstract Note | Celestronâs NexStar telescopes were introduced in 1999, beginning with their first computer controlled "go toâ model, a 5-inch. More models appeared in quick succession, and Celestronâs new range made it one of the two dominant manufacturers of affordable "go toâ telescopes. Michael Swansonâs online discussions with literally thousands of NexStar owners made it clear that there was a desperate need for a book such as this - one that provides a complete, detailed guide to buying, using and maintaining NexStar telescopes. Although this book is highly comprehensive, it is suitable for beginners - there is a chapter on "Astronomy Basicsâ - and experts alike. |
