This book de-mystifies the jargon of webcams and computer processing,
and provides detailed hints and tips for imaging the Sun, Moon and
planets with a webcam. It demonstrates how inexpensive tools are
revolutionizing imaging in amateur astronomy. Anyone with a modest
telescope and a webcam can now obtain jaw-dropping lunar and planetary
images to rival those taken with mid-range astronomical CCD cameras
costing thousands of dollars. A glance through the images in this book
shows just what spectacular results can be achieved by using a webcam
with your telescope! Your scientific results will be sought by
professional astronomers.
