J'observe le ciel à l'oeil nu (BROQUET)

The beauty and immensity of the starry sky of a cloudless night is always a source of amazement. In "I observe the sky with the naked eye": astronomy without a telescope, Patrick Moore, the best-known British astronomer, reveals everything you need to know about the universe visible to the naked eye. Using detailed maps and illustrations, he explains how to "read" the stars, constellations and their trajectories throughout the seasons, as well as the legends that accompany them. In a guide covering one month at a time, he describes, with supporting maps, the starry skies of each of the two hemispheres. It also takes a look at the planets, the sun and the moon as well as their eclipses, comets, meteors, auroras and other celestial phenomena; and always with attention to scientific detail. Astronomy is for everyone and even observing the sky with the naked eye can become a fascinating and rewarding activity for a lifetime.
