Publisher's Synopsis

Specifically designed for absolute beginners and casual stargazers without a telescope, this guide highlights over 100 astronomical events in 2018 - all of them visible with just your eyes.

Written by a former freelance writer for Astronomy magazine, every event has a full colour depiction of the sky and a description that's jargon-free and easy to understand.

The guide showcases events visible in both the evening and pre-dawn sky and includes:

* Pairings of the Moon with planets, bright stars and star clusters
* The best opportunities to see Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn
* Meteor showers
* Bright stars and constellations

You don't need to be an expert. You don't need to know the jargon. You just need a calendar, clear, dark skies and a willingness to explore the universe above and beyond you!
