For over 150 years the United States Nautical Almanac Office has published The Nautical Almanac, first as part of the American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac, and then on its own, to provide the US Navy with a convenient form of the astronomical data used for celestial navigation. This book is still the standard resource for marine celestial navigation for the U.S. Navy. The Nautical Almanac provides essential astronomical information for every kind of sea-going vessel, from cruise liners to fishing boats. It is fully comprehensive, containing a set of concise sight reduction tables for the navigator, together with all the necessary information needed for use in determining the position at sea from sextant observations. Nautical Almanac is essential for astro-navigation and used by many astro-teaching courses.

This year the Almanac is bilingual, with the intention of promoting a dialog within the international community. In fact, because its distribution is exclusively through the web, it was necessary to meld the two versions, Italian and English, into one document. The format of the charts has remained the same as well as the contents, with some broadening and graphic improvements. The great events are detailed for the major cities of the world. About 400 pages covers events in great detail, with orderly data in easy to read charts for a wide variety of phenomenon. Exhaustive data contained in this Almanac is designed to satisfy the needs of anyone that observes the sky whether professional or amateur. Included are phenomena that will be visible to the naked eye and those notable for their spectacularity and rarity. Besides the classical ephemerides of Sun, planets and Moon, there is data about conjunctions of every type, between planets, with the Moon, with the comets...

Written by a former freelance writer for Astronomy magazine, the guide provides almost daily data and information on the Moon and planets and lists details of hundreds of astronomical events. Included in the guide are: * Graphical depictions of the Moon and planets throughout the month * Data tables for the Moon and planets including position, magnitude, apparent diameter and elongation from the Sun. * Conjunctions between the Moon, planets and bright stars (including angular separations for planetary conjunctions.) * Lunar and Solar eclipses * Annual summaries of when to observe the planets * Annual summaries of notable close planetary conjunctions * Peak dates for the major meteor showers with moon phase * Inferior and superior conjunctions for Mercury and Venus * Greatest eastern and western elongations for Mercury and Venus * Oppositions and solar conjunctions for the outer planets * Dates of the equinoxes and solstices PLUS * Twenty-four star charts with accompanying lists of suggested deep sky objects Whether you're an expert astronomer or a casual star gazer, the almanac is the essential guide for observers everywhere.

Much of what is known about the universe came from the study of celestial shadows. This book looks in detail at the way eclipses and other celestial shadows have given us amazing insights into the nature of the objects in our solar system and how they are even helping us discover and analyze planets that orbit stars other than our Sun. A variety of eclipses, transits, and occultations of the mooons of Jupiter and Saturn, Pluto and its satellite Charon, asteroids and stars have helped astronomers to work out their dimensions, structures, and shapes - even the existence of atmospheres and structures of exoplanets. Long before Columbus set out to reach the Far East by sailing West, the curved shadow of the Earth on the Moon during a lunar eclipse revealed that we inhabit a round world, a globe. More recently, comparisons of the sunlit and Earthlit parts of the Moon have been used to determine changes in the Earth's brightness as a way of monitoring possible effects in cloud coverage which may be related to global warming. Shadows were used by the Greek mathematician Eratosthenes to work out the first estimate of the circumference of the Earth, by Galileo to measure the heights of the lunar mountains and by eighteenth century astronomers to determine the scale of the Solar System itself. Some of the rarest and most wonderful shadows of all are those cast onto Earth by the lovely "Evening Star" Venus as it goes between the Earth and the Sun. These majestic transits of Venus occur at most two in a century; after the 2012 transit, there is not a chance to observe this phenomenon until 2117, while the more common sweep of a total solar eclipse creates one of the most dramatic and awe-inspiring events of nature. Though it may have once been a source of consternation or dread, solar eclipses now lead thousands of amateur astronomers and "eclipse-chasers" to travel the globe in order to experience the dramatic view under "totality." These phenomena are among the most spectacular available to observers and are given their full due in Westfall and Sheehan's comprehensive study.
