Guest chrishewett Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Just looking to buy the pocket star atlas. Can someone tell me what the date of the latest edition is and is it necessary to buy the latest? These are available on ebay for £10.72 delivered, 2006 edition. Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Type-R Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yeah I believe that is the latest copy. I dont think you need a revised version (if there was one) as not that much changes up there (Messier wise) so the atlas will stay current for many a year, besides, I bet any new stuff ESA/NASA find will proberbly be too distant for us to see any way (I may be wrong on that). It`s a a cracking atlas, I would be lost without mine!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I don't think it matters, the heavens aren't changing every year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chrishewett Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Thanks for that. I will order one today. The atlas I am using at the moment is based on 1950 star maps! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAZ Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 The Book Depository has an offer on at the moment, might be worth a look. />http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/Sky-Telescopes-Pocket-Sky-Atlas-Roger-Sinnott/9781931559317 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tweedledum Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) Originally 6 quid from an amazon store last year.. That would be an extra penny in the apo fund Martyn . Cheers Edited November 20, 2012 by Tweedledum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MrsR Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I used mine for the first time last week and found I got on with it better than any star atlas I'd previously used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
