If you like mags with large amounts of the 'classics' Astronomy has put
on the racks '100 most spectacular Sky Wonders'
Gobs of the classics but very good shots. #2 is a TACo fav of Thor's
Helmet (NGC2359) . Some nice pics on paper for sending this to people
next christmas or whatever. They have a 47 Tucanae (NGC104) that is
very nice so they did not just limit it to north.
They are also putting little boxes off to the sides of these 100 with
suggestions of 1-4 nearby objects often with a smaller pic.
A good cloudy day or full moon armchair 'observing' .
Just FYI, I liked um,
