Star Gazing Journal: Track and Record Your Astronomical Observations by John Philip Hunter

Star Gazing Journal: Track and Record Your Astronomical Observations by John Philip Hunter
$9.45

Looking for something to do on these cold, clear nights? Start tracking and recording astronomical observations in this awesome journal.

If the movie Interstellar inspires you, then get a Star Gazing Journal. Make notes about the Rosetta landing. Awesome stuff. Now you don’t have to make astronomy observation notes on little scraps of paper or in funky notebooks. Record your sky viewing observations in an orderly way with this easy-to-use stargazing journal. Each page includes blank areas that allow you to sketch exactly what you're seeing in the night sky. You can also keep track of the date, time, lunar phase, longitude, latitude, sky conditions, and the equipment used. Make note of how many meteors you see during the Leonid and Perseid meteor showers. Follow a comet over the course of many nights. Or, just jot down how spectacular the night sky was on a certain date. You can even make note of the International Space Station (ISS) as it passes over your location. It's awesome to observe! Each time it passes, it's on a different trajectory. There are many celestial events to observe, in addition to the stars, constellations, and planets. With this stargazing journal, you’ll be able to plan ahead and then record your observations. It's an astronomy journal you'll keep for years!
