50 Things To See With A Telescope
After observing Saturn through a small telescope in his late twenties, John A. Read, the author of 50 Things To See With A Telescope fell in love with astronomy. After a few years, he left his Fortune 500 position to become a full-time astronomy student, author, YouTuber, and father of three. Read received the RASC's Simon Newcomb Award for excellence in science communication in 2020.
This colorful edition, from the author of the blockbuster book 50 Things to See with a Small Telescope, explores the constellations with young readers, guiding them to dozens of galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters. Every page includes a useful "telescope view," which shows how objects appear when viewed through a tiny telescope or binoculars. John Read taught hundreds of pupils how to use telescopes and explore the night sky while a member of the Mount Diablo Astronomical Society in California. Now he's passing on his wisdom to you! Even if you don't have a telescope, this introduction to the night sky should be in every child's collection.
