It's a guide to all 88 constellations in the sky. Each entry has a chart for the region of the sky, descriptions of the major objects you'll find there, background mythology, and a guided tour through each constellation with binoculars or a telescope. I'm really grateful for Tammy's work on this, and I hope you find it really helpful, whether you're an experienced astronomer or want to start exploring the constellations. Of course, it's totally free for you all to use.

Here's the full list of all the constellations:
