📝 About The Book

The Celestial Handbook, by Robert Burnham, is a landmark work in the field of astronomy, extensively revised through 1977. This comprehensive guide provides invaluable insights for both amateur and advanced astronomers, with its first volume covering a wide range of celestial objects from Andromeda through Cetus. Organized by constellation, the book includes detailed descriptions of stars, double and multiple stars, star clusters, nebulae, and galaxies, all presented with celestial coordinates, classifications, and physical details.

The extensive introduction in Volume I ensures that beginners can dive into the material with ease, providing approximately 80% of the necessary information. For each celestial object, the book features names, classifications, and rich, descriptive notes on history, peculiar movements, and accepted scientific explanations for phenomena like white dwarfs, novas, super novas, and cepheids.

This beautifully illustrated volume also includes over 300 photographs that capture the objects in stunning detail, along with hundreds of charts to aid in identification. The book serves as both a detailed reference and an inspiring tool for those with a passion for stargazing and exploring the mysteries of the universe.

As a cornerstone in the field, The Celestial Handbook is a must-have resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of the stars and celestial bodies beyond our solar system.
