About the Book

This book combines knowledge of Chinese constellations and Western astrology to guide readers in understanding the rotation of the Earth and the constellations of the four seasons. 本书结合中国星宿与西方星座的相关知识,带领大家认识地转天旋和四季星座。 This book begins with an introduction to the twelve zodiac constellations and planets along the ecliptic, covering topics such as the ecliptic, planets, precession, the rotation of the Earth, and the origins of the four seasons' constellations. It also explores various celestial phenomena such as "transit of Venus" and "Mars staying at Antares," along with mythological stories related to the planets. By guiding readers from everyday life into the vastness of the night sky, the book helps them recognize the distinct characteristics of the four seasons' starry skies, providing a reliable reference for stargazing in each season. To help readers better understand the historical context of stargazing, the author explains the ancient Chinese division of the sky and recounts well-known star-related stories, such as "Huo Qubing Viewing the Big Dipper Upside Down," "The Separation of Shen and Shang," "The Cowherd and Weaver Girl Meeting on the Seventh Night of the Seventh Month," "The Battle of Fei River," and "Beacon Fires Toying with the Princes." What makes this book even more valuable is that the author introduces readers to a free and practical stargazing tool-the Stellarium (simulated sky) software-using real examples to demonstrate how to observe a real-time simulated night sky and customize observation times and locations. Additionally, the author provides detailed instructions on capturing beautiful starry skies using a digital camera. This book encompasses both Chinese and Western cultures, richly illustrated with high-quality four-color images, aiming to offer readers a fresh perspective on the universe and the night sky. 本书从黄道附近的十二星座和行星讲起,介绍了黄道、行星、岁差,以及地转天旋和四季星座的由来,同时还介绍了"金星凌日""荧惑守心"等各类星空现象和有关行星的神话故事。让人们从日常生活走进浩渺的星空,认识四季星空的不同特点,使每个季节观星都有据可依。 为了让读者更好地理解观星的历史知识,作者为读者讲解了中国古代星空的划分和"霍去病倒看北斗""参商不相见""牛郎织女七夕相会""淝水之战""烽火戏诸侯"等大家耳熟能详的星宿故事。 更为难能可贵的是,作者还为读者介绍了免费实用的观星工具--Stellarium(模拟星空)软件,用实例讲解如何利用这个软件观看实时的模拟星空,自定观星时间与地点。同时,作者还详细地教大家用数码相机拍摄美丽星空的方法。 本书内容涵盖中西方文化,配有大量四色精美插图,力求让大家对宇宙和星空有一个全新的认识。
