Résumé : Planetary Astronomy is a comprehensive book about observing, imaging, and studying
planets. It has been written by seven authors, all being skillful amateur observers
in their respective domains: Christian Viladrich, Marc Delcroix, Jean-Jacques Poupeau,
Frédéric Burgeot, Giuseppe Monachino, and Jean-Pierre Prost. This is a translation
and an update of the book Astronomie planétaire who is a great success in France since
2015. With Planetary Astronomy you will learn to: * Make the best use of your equipment:
choosing an instrument, setting correctly the optics of the telescope, setting the
camera, using planetary filters, train your eye to see all possible details at the
eyepiece * Anticipate weather and seeing conditions, not to lose any good night *
Use in depth the best planetary softwares: Autostakkert!, Registax, and WinJupos,
how to objectively process details and colors * Identify features on planets: each
of the seven planets (but Earth of course) has a detailed chapter that will help you
to anticipate cycles of activity on Jupiter, recognize dust storms on Mars, detect
bright storms on Uranus or Neptune * Analyse your data to go beyond simple observations:
measuring position and details drifting on planets, making cartographies, participate
to advanced observing projects including cooperation with scientists. [source éditeur]
