Touring The Universe lets you in on the best places to explore, when and where to witness the most spectacular events, and how to get there to have the best experience! Even those on a budget will garner a lifetime of memories. Liftoff is Now! Fasten your seat belts! I wrote this book to accommodate a wide range of astronomy enthusiasts. It details a plethora of observing activities for those just beginning or others who are more knowledgeable. Those who are just beginning won't need binoculars or a telescope to enjoy the heavens, only a small commitment of time. For the most part, nature does the work for you, so all you have to do is look up and enjoy the show. Now if you have a basic knowledge of astronomy or get the "bug", I have noted over 100 objects on the star charts that you can observe with binoculars or a small telescope. This should keep you busy while you decide where you want to go next with this wonderful science. Astronomy is dynamic. Meteors streak across the sky, the Moon waxes and wanes, eclipses occur, comets come and go and stars occasionally flair up. There is always something different happening. For this reason I am providing 16 years of celestial information to keep you abreast of the most predictable events so that you can pick up wherever you may have left off. Now, go out and enjoy the splendors of the Heavens. You won't regret it! Ken Graun |
