«Cómo descubrir el firmamento con prismáticos» is an astronomy guide by Patrick Moore, published by Debate in paperback (221 pages, in Spanish).
The guide explains the fundamentals of astronomical observation with binoculars, how to choose them, and what objects can be seen: stars, clusters, nebulae, and galaxies. It covers the sky by season in both hemispheres, includes constellation maps, and also describes the Sun, the Moon, the planets, comets, and shooting stars.
Originally published as «Exploring the Night Sky with Binoculars» in 1986, this Spanish translation was published in 1997. The illustrations are by Paul Doherty.
It is a work intended for those who want to start observing the sky without buying a telescope and for enthusiasts who already use binoculars.
Sir Patrick Alfred Caldwell-Moore was an English amateur astronomer who attained prominence in that field as a writer, researcher, radio commentator and television presenter.
