Title: interstellarum Deep Sky Atlas English Desk Edition - English language edition
Author: Ronald Stoyan, Stephan Schurig
The interstellarum Deep Sky Atlas heralds a new era of celestial cartography. It is an innovative, practical tool for you to choose and find stars, star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. Thanks to its revolutionary new concept, it is aimed at users of all experience levels.
Usually, deep-sky objects are shown with just a standard symbol in the star charts. The interstellarum Deep Sky Atlas is different: all objects are shown according to their actual visibility. With one quick glance at the map, it is clear which objects you can see in a given telescope and which you can’t. This is made possible with the introduction of four main object
visibility classes:
- Objects visible in 4-inch telescopes under a moderately dark sky
- Objects visible in 8-inch telescopes under a moderately dark sky
- Objects visible in 12-inch telescopes under a moderately dark sky
- Objects not visible in 12-inch telescopes under a moderately dark sky
Within each visibility class, the objects are labeled in different type weights and using graduated shades and colors for the symbols – the bolder the label or the darker the symbol, the easier it is for you to see the object! Finally – an atlas for deep sky observers, by deep sky observers. Once you’ve seen it, there’s no going back.
Features:
- Scale 1.5 cm per degree
- Faint stars down to magnitude 9.5; over 200 000 plotted
- Each map covers 2h in R.A. and 15° in Decl. (with exceptions in polar regions)
- Color throughout, optimized for the use under red light conditions
- Generously sized maps run to the edge of each sheet
- Contains all Abell planetaries, Hickson compact groups, Arp galaxies, Barnard dark nebulae, Palomar globulars, and many more
- Contains a selection of Abell galaxy clusters, Shakhbazian groups, and Klemola groups
- Contains asterisms > 5'
- Gives information on which filter to use for emission nebulae
264 pages, wire-o binding, 28cm × 26cm, colored, ISBN 978-3-938469-79-8, December 2014 (1st edition)
