Nexus 6 Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Hi noakesy,this book is very well regarded by many astronomers.http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=turn+left+at+orion&tag=googhydr-21&index=stripbooks&hvadid=6634990145&ref=pd_sl_8ic2j3jhmv_bAlan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshane Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 when you say tell you about do you mean background info or how to find them?assuming the latter the above suggestion is good but in my opinion even better and cheaper is Illustrated Guide to Astronomical Wonders: From Novice to Master Observer DIY Science: Amazon.co.uk: Robert Thompson, Barbara Fritchman, Thompson: Books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollypenrice Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 On the science side, Universe by Kauffmann, ed Freeman is comprehensive and accessible. The maths is always optional.There is also a science book called Cosmic Clouds by James Kaler.Olly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
