Description
Like most amateur astronomers, Covington has a day job (computational linguistics, U. of Georgia, but starts his real life when the sun goes down. He explains to kindred souls how to use the new generation of telescopes now available--portable, compact, and probably computer- controlled--and the new high-quality data sources such as satellites and the Internet. The companion volume is How to Use a Computerized Telescope. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
