Star Hopper’s Guide to the Universe
This book was created for amateur astronomers who are interested in locating deep sky objects using the star-hop method.
The book is primarily designed to be printed and carried out in the field. However, we also wanted to provide supplemental information for pre or post observation session research, so there are many online links throughout the book.
The charts are systematically organized by constellation, encompassing close to 50 constellations, over 170 charts, and over 250 objects including all Messier Objects.
