It was my old astrophotography blog: https://neurohack.com/Astrophotography/index.html
And the book it led to is 101 Amazing Sights of the Night Sky: https://www.amazon.com/101-Amazing-Sights-Night-Sky/dp/15919...
Neither is very popular, but it was a lot of fun.
It always pleases me to see pictures of NGC 4216, the edge-on spiral galaxy with a star beside its nucleus. I used to use it as a pointer to the short-period contact binary star CC Comae Berenices back when I used observe eclipsing binaries with my Celestron 8.
Nice! I was never much of a visual observer--I never had the patience.
Picked it up :) The look inside was great, it reminds me of an old astronomy book that I was obsessed with a long time ago.
Awesome! Let me know what you think.
Did not expect to see a book about night sky in this post. The book looks great. I'm getting one for my sons.
Hope they like it! Let me know what they think!
