I’m very pleased to announce that my new book The Night Sky Month by Month was published by Dorling Kindersley today.

The book is a month by month observational guide for both the northern and southern hemispheres. It includes details of which celestial objects to look out for each month, charts showing the positions of the planets, a detailed almanac and a guide to getting started in astronomy.

Over the last few days Dorling Kindersley has been tweeting tips on astronomical sights to look out for this week, so be sure to follow them on Twitter here. And, if you want a guide to what to see in the night skies throughout the year, you’ll find details of where to buy my book here.
