Publisher's Note
Since the dawn of time, people have been intrigued with the stars. See for yourself what's so fascinating with a homemade telescope -- there are six different sizes and styles: from a small hand-held device to a large mounted one, made with readily available, inexpensive materials that are better than the instruments used in Galileo or Newton's time, Full-color photographs and hundreds of fascinating tidbits about comets, eclipses, and constellations, as well as explanations free of technical jargon, make this guide accessible to anyone interested in seeing what's out there. Trace the history of the development of the telescope, and learn the principles and variations of its design, basic construction techniques and materials, how to repair and adapt older telescopes, how to take photographs through a telescope, and much more. With the ideas, tips and instructions contained here, beginners can explore the cosmos and embark on a lifetime of celestial discovery.
