Description:

From the Friends of Killarney Park comes A Camper's Guide to the Universe. This small but handy book provides useful information to people interested in understanding the mysteries of the skies above. It provides something for everyone including:

explanation of many night sky phenomenon
star tours of the constellations for each season
observing tips and sun facts to help tell their stories

This book is a great companion for both the car camper as well as those heading into the interior. Used in conjunction with a large amateur telescope (such as the one found in the Killarney Provincial Park Observatory), this guide can open the door to an experience seldom found elsewhere.

A Camper's Guide to the Universe includes:

4 seasonal sky tours
74 diagrams, illustrations and images
9 observing tips
24 fun facts
information on the Sun, Moon, Planets , and many of the incredible wonders of our Universe.

Foreword by science journalist Bob McDonald.
