It is for both beginners and more experienced observers. The magnitude limit of the charted stars is about +5.5 which is the limit of the naked eye, but the magnitude limit for celestial objects (like nebulae and galaxies) is about +11.5, which is the limit for a 6-inch to 8-inch diameter telescope, that is, popular-size scopes under reasonably dark skies. Throughout its 128 pages, beginners will find explanations of terms and concepts, as well as help with terms in the expanded glossary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eCelestial Atlas Menor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e includes: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e* 26 detailed star charts of the entire sky with 14 additional close-up charts\u003cbr\u003e* Comfortable chart scale that keeps whole constellations on a single chart (page)\u003cbr\u003e* Simplified constellation outlines for easy identification of patterns in the sky\u003cbr\u003e* Over 1,370 plotted objects (Deep Sky Objects: star clusters, nebulae and galaxies) and 360 double stars with 24 pages of descriptions.
