⚠️ This book is written in French.

A richly illustrated guide to the night sky by Quebec amateur astronomer and astrophotographer Philippe Moussette. The book presents more than 200 celestial objects — planets, constellations, comets, stars, nebulae, star clusters and supernovae — almost all photographed by the author himself (98% of the images). Some photos are overlaid with sky charts to help you find and identify each object, and the book covers observing instruments, sky phenomena and the basics of astrophotography. Written for beginners and experienced observers alike, its content and style were validated by a panel of novice and scientific readers.

This second edition is a complete overhaul of the original 2011 book, with many new photos and updated information. Prefaces by Hubert Reeves and Charles Tisseyre.
