Whenever I see this book, I do always request it as it is such an excellent guide on Astronomy that every year never fails on giving an informative and interesting guide on all that is going on in the skies in 2023.

Excellently written and a thorough guide on what to look out for, I can't wait to get the telescope out and find the many things that this book describes. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is needing an expert guide to Astronomy as it makes for an incredibly informative read.

An excellent book that caters to both those in the northern and southern hemispheres by providing monthly star charts for both areas. There are also the Constellation names and their abbreviations.

Next, it moves onto the planets and where they will be in the night sky, the moon phases, eclipses, comets, meteor showers,. Also included are different articles about scientific people, planets, or discoveries.

Overall it is a fascinating book for anyone who wants to look up at our night sky!

I received this book from Netgalley in return for an honest review.

Good guidebook for stargazing and having ready to plan out 2023 to know what there is to see in teh sky from night to night throughout the year.

The "Yearbook of Astronomy" series is just wonderful, and 2023's offering is no different. Whether you have a mild interest in astronomy or a wild enthusiasm, a deep knowledge or know next to nothing, there is always something for everyone. Month by month guides, fascinating articles, star charts... How can you fail to be entertained, educated, and more than a little bit in awe?!

Thank you #NetGalley and #PenandSword for sending me #YearbookofAstornomy2023 by #Brian Jones to review.

This is an awesome guide for all things astronomy in 2023. It is filled with charts and notes that are handy while exploring the skies in 2023. This would make a fantastic gift for anyone that enjoys Astronomy, whether they are a novice or expert.

This trusty stargazers’ guide is perfect for both the layman and scientists. It’s written in plain language accessible to the layman, but has content detailed and interesting enough to be of interest to those with science backgrounds (like myself).

It has easy to read, detailed star charts for stargazers in the northern and southern hemispheres for all of 2023. They include constellations, planets, galaxies, and other astronomical phenomena one might see while looking up at the night sky. Each chart is clearly labeled with dates and times for which the sky should match the chart.

This text also includes an overview of astronomical events to watch out for like lunar and solar eclipses, meteor showers, and good dates/times for viewing solar planets. This book includes a table of the lunar cycle timeline for 2023.

Finally, it’s got a large collection of astronomy-related science articles about anything from interesting bits of astronomy history or quirky astronomy/space anecdotes to recent discoveries, achievements, and technological advancements in the field of astronomy. There’s plenty of interesting topics for anyone and everyone. Even those with a physics or astronomy background are sure to find some bits of trivia or scientific history they’ve never seen before.

All in all, this is a great one-stop source to guide your stargazing and sate your science article/trivia cravings for the entire year of 2023.

I received a free eARC via NetGalley. I am writing this review completely honestly and voluntarily.

Great guide for anyone interested in astronomy! The month by month format makes it easy to follow through out the year. I enjoyed the short articles that highlight research and history.

I wish I had known about this book years ago. This book has everything from monthly calendars with a Events that are going to happen in historical events that have happened to the different phases of the moon. They even have articles and opinion pieces. My husband and I love sitting on the back deck and looking into the night sky add this book will now let us know what to look for. This book has been coming out for seventy years and the fact that I just heard about it this year makes me feel like I have lost out but not again. Thanking about stars in space can make you dizzy but if you know what you’re looking for it could be oh so interesting and this book helps you do that. I was given this book by Nat Gally and I am leaving this review voluntarily please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review but all opinions are definitely my own.

I was so excited to read this book! I've always wanted a calender type book that details all the year's meteor showers, supermoons, eclipses, constellations, planetary events etc, and when and where to view them. So, this sounded perfect!

Unfortunately, this wasn't it, at least for me, anyway. It does have all those elements but I found it so terribly difficult to read and follow. It feels like a scientific textbook and my amateur wannabe astronomer brain couldn't keep up.

I found the layout and style very overwhelming.

I think star charts and the like just aren't for me. I really need all this information simplified as much as possible, with an engaging and welcoming format that grabs my attention.

But it's possible it's the digital format that's really throwing me off.

I did really like the sections about advancements in astronomy, the mission to Mars and other articles. So very interesting! I love that. It was just the practical elements I struggled with.

I believe I would need to view this in print form to have a true experience.

If you are interested in astronomy and have a more agile brain than mine, try this book!

This iconic publication made its first appearance way back in 1962, shortly after the dawning of the Space Age. Now into its seventh decade of production, the Yearbook continues to be essential reading for anyone lured and fascinated by the magic of astronomy. Insightful and interesting ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Star charts and astronomical events galore! Here is a great handbook for Astronomy lovers and novices. Get your telescopes out.

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is an interesting book!

This astronomy yearbook includes information celestial bodies for 2023. There's a breakdown of the constellations and how to read the sky maps as well as sky maps for the year for both hemispheres. It is helpful for identifying constellations. There's also information on the orbit of the planets, what lunar eclipses will happen in 2023, and various comets and their history.

This is a technical but interesting guide to what you can see in the sky in 2023.

My husband is hard to shop for and finding a unique gift that h will love is even harder. I saw this book and wondered if it might be right for him…and it is! He’s an astronomy nerd and this book is going to be a great way for him to enjoy this passion every day in 2023. I was going to wait to give it to him at Christmas, but I figured this would make a great anniversary gift for him and he can read up and be ready for 2023.

This makes a great gift for anyone who is interested in the subject. Don’t hesitate to buy if for them, you’ll have title of best gift giver for awhile!

The format was a bit messed up when made into a Kindle e-book, but the content itself was super promising. I will be keeping note of the publishing date so I can get a physical copy ASAP.
