The Secret Deep list contains many exceptional objects, including a planetary nebula whose last thermal pulse produced a circumstellar shell similar to the one expected in the final days of our Sun's life; a piece of the only supernova remnant known visible to the unaided eye; the flattest galaxy known; the largest edge-on galaxy in the heavens; the brightest quasar; and the companion star to one of the first black hole candidates ever discovered. Each object is accompanied by beautiful photographs and sketches, original finder charts, visual histories and up-to-date astrophysical information to enrich the observing experience. Featuring galaxies, clusters and nebulae not covered in other Deep-Sky Companions books, this is a wonderful addition to the series and an essential guide for any deep-sky observer"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Galaxies $v Observers' manuals. 650 0 $a Astronomy $v Observers' manuals. 830 0 $a Deep-sky companions. 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20120405011224.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D377E9B67EE411E18914EBF56AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
