Portraits of the deep sky and of local astronomical phenomena taken by the world’s renowned astrophotographers—with a foreword by Neil deGrasse Tyson.

Galaxies, star clusters, nebulae, and other deep-sky treasures fill the pages. Along with the marvels of the night sky—the Andromeda and Whirlpool galaxies, the Pleiades and the Praesepe, the Orion and Crab nebulae, and many more—each section features a profile of the photographer’s work, techniques, philosophy, and experiences. Compiled by the world’s leading amateur astrophotographer, with an introduction to the history of space photography, this spectacular volume is an essential for every stargazer’s bookshelf.elf.
