VIEWING AND IMAGING THE SOLAR SYSTEM - JANE CLA...

Viewing and Imaging the Solar System: A Guide for Amateur Astronomers is for those who want to
develop their ability to observe and image Solar System objects  including the planets and
moons  the Sun  and comets and asteroids. They might be beginners  or they may have already
owned and used an astronomical telescope for a year or more. Newcomers are almost always wowed
by sights such as the rings of Saturn and the moons of Jupiter  but have little idea how to
find these objects for themselves (with the obvious exceptions of the Sun and Moon). They also
need guidance about what equipment  besides a telescope  they will need. This book is written
by an expert on the Solar System  who has had a lot of experience with outreach programs  which
teach others how to make the most of relatively simple and low-cost equipment. That does not
mean that this book is not for serious amateurs. On the contrary  it is designed to show
amateur astronomers  in a relatively light-hearted-and math-free way-how to become serious.
