5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Astronomy Resource
A wonderful astronomy resource. Has informative articles written by amateurs smattered throughout -- in just the right amounts and at just the right places. Similar to my "The Universal Book of Astronomy : From the Andromeda Galaxy to the Zone of Avoidance" book, but with more depth to most definitions. Many full color illustrations and photos. The only thing I don't...

Alright
This is a alright book to add to anyone collect. I didn't find this book to be useful to me. Its more along the lines of a children/teen book to learn in science class.

The only thing I don't like in the Firefly one better than the "The Universal Book of Astronomy : From the Andromeda Galaxy to the Zone of Avoidance" book is that this book doesn't list out the stars of each constellations with distances like the Universal Book does. The only solution -- buy both! :)

This book is AMAZING! It is chock full of terms and definitions, plus gorgeous pictures. It is not one of those books with no color or pictures in it. So you not only have a wealth of information at your fingertips, but you also get to see beautiful pictures/examples of terms along the way.
