Editorial Reviews
Book Description
On the occasion of its 25th anniversary the European Southern Observatory (ESO), is publishing a selection from its photographic treasures of the southern skies: 90 colour and 147 black and white plates have been reproduced. Thirty maps make it easy to locate the objects shown. Part 1 is devoted to extragalactic phenomena. Part 2 deals with our Galaxy. Part 3 contains the results from observations of minor bodies in the solar system (asteroids and comets with an emphasis on the most beautiful Halley's comet photographs). The final part presents the Observatory itself.
