But there are countless other less well known examples. These dark regions are often ignored altogether or commented upon only briefly in astronomy books, and it is all too easy to overlook the treasure trove they offer the observer. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDark Nebulae, Dark Lanes, and Dust Lanes\u003c\/i\u003e is a great source of practical information for observers. Such voids may be successfully observed using conventional observing methods, but they are often far better seen with technologies such as light-pollution filters, CCD video cameras, and image intensifiers.  This book explains the optimal ways to observe each object in detail.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-01-28\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461411857\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4614-1186-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 243\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47379802390668,"sku":"9781461411857","price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461411857.jpg?v=1775730564","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461411857","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
