Description

This book will appeal to anyone who enjoys the outdoors and who is curious about many of the optical and astronomical phenomena that occur daily. You will find the answers to questions such as: Why is the sky blue? Why are sunsets red? How can I tell if that point of light is a planet or a star? Why can I often see further on an overcast day? What is a green flash? Naylor offers practical advice about where and when you can expect to see natural phenomena, what you will see and how to improve your chances of seeing it. He takes in both the night sky and the day sky, and deals only with what can be seen with the naked eye. Written in a popular style that assumes only basic scientific know-how. Over 100 full-color illustrations and photos.
