This new edition of his classic text makes it easy to see why Sir Patrick Moore was such a helpful guide to generations of budding astronomers, professional and amateur alike. For every night of the year Patrick gives the reader details of interesting objects that can be seen from Earth. It is a book for people with a wide interest in practical astronomy, those who may not have specialized in a specific area of astronomy and wish to expand their knowledge in all areas. This third edition includes Sir Patrick?s original text but revises its time-sensitive material and adds all of the points of interest that change from year to year, such as eclipses, occultations, planetary positions, and so on.  Sir Patrick Moore left behind an enormous legacy, including the world's longest-running television series with the same original presenter, the BBC's The Sky at Night, and more than 70 written works. His influence on the world of amateur astronomy was phenomenal, and his knowledge and passion led many to take up observing as a life-long hobby. This book, ?The Observer?s Year, 366 Nights of the Universe? w as, he said, one of his personal favorites. It now features a tribute to Patrick Moore's legacy as well as including what has changed in astronomy since the previous edition ten years ago. 410 0$aThe Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series,$x1431-9756 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aPopular Science in Astronomy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009 606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 14$aPopular Science in Astronomy. 615 24$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 676 $a520.223 702 $aInglis$b Mike$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300405003321 996 $aPatrick Moore?s Observer?s Year: 366 Nights of the Universe$91910229 997 $aUNINA
