The Fifty Year Almanac of Astronomical Events: 2021 to 2070 is a catalog listing a wide range of solar system phenomena as seen from Earth. Each year gives a concise compendium of the most conspicuous and/or significant astronomical events involving the Sun, Moon and the planets. The astronomical events include the following. - solar and lunar eclipses - phases of the Moon - apogees and perigees of the Moon - Equinoxes and Solstices of Earth - aphelion and perihelion (Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus) - oppositions and conjunctions of the planets - elongations of Mercury and Venus - close conjunctions of the Moon with the planets and bright stars - close conjunctions of planets with bright stars and other planets - peak of major meteor showers The date and time of each event is given in Greenwich Mean Time (= Coordinated Universal Time). With 200+ events each year, the Fifty Year Almanac includes over 10,200 astronomical events.

Timing is everything. Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide, the most trusted and detailed astrological planner available, makes it easy to take advantage of planetary energies. Choose the best time to do anything on a monthly, weekly, and daily basis—and even down to the minute. Before setting up a job interview, signing a contract, planning a vacation, or scheduling anything important, consult the weekly forecasts and Opportunity Periods—times when the positive flow of energy is at its peak. Plan your year wisely according to aspects, ephemerides, retrograde planets, eclipses for 2014, and more astrological information. Even beginners can use this powerful planner, which explains the planets, signs, houses, and how to use this guide.

This well-schooled text provides a detailed description of how to perform practical astronomy or spherical astronomy. It is an authoritative source on astronomical phenomena and calendars.

Bridging the gap between physics and astronomy textbooks, this book provides step-by-step physical and mathematical development of fundamental astrophysical processes underlying a wide range of phenomena in stellar, galactic, and extragalactic astronomy. The book has been written for upper-level undergraduates and beginning graduate students, and its strong pedagogy ensures solid mastery of each process and application. It contains over 150 tutorial figures, numerous examples of astronomical measurements, and 201 exercises. Topics covered include the Kepler–Newton problem, stellar structure, binary evolution, radiation processes, special relativity in astronomy, radio propagation in the interstellar medium, and gravitational lensing. Applications presented include Jeans length, Eddington luminosity, the cooling of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), the Sunyaev–Zeldovich effect, Doppler boosting in jets, and determinations of the Hubble constant. This text is a stepping stone to more specialized books and primary literature. Password-protected solutions to the exercises are available to instructors at www.cambridge.org/9780521846561.
