An Amazon Best Book of the Year — 2020!The story of the people who see beyond the stars—an astronomy book for adults still spellbound by the night sky.Humans from the earliest civilizations through today have craned their necks each night, using the stars to orient themselves in the large, strange world around them. Stargazing is a pursuit that continues to fascinate us: from Copernicus to Carl Sagan, astronomers throughout history have spent their lives trying to answer the biggest questions in the universe. Now, award-winning astronomer Emily Levesque shares the stories of modern-day stargazers in this new nonfiction release, the people willing to adventure across high mountaintops and to some of the most remote corners of the planet, all in the name of science.From the lonely quiet of midnight stargazing to tall tales of wild bears loose in the observatory, The Last Stargazers is a love letter to astronomy and an affirmation of the crucial role that humans can and must play in the future of scientific discovery.In this sweeping work of narrative science, Levesque shows how astronomers in this scrappy and evolving field are going beyond the machines to infuse creativity and passion into the stars and space and inspires us all to peer skyward in pursuit of the universe's secrets.

This delightful book describes what it is actually like to carry out astronomical observations as a professional astronomer. It looks back at the days of photographic plates and freezing domes, examines today's astronomy of remote observing and digital cameras, and ponders a future of gigantic automated surveys. Many are the stories of the adventures and misadventures of astronomers in pursuit of their observations, and those sometimes autobiographical tales are what make the book fun as well as instructive. I had a few quibbles from time to time, for example, an occasional use of "literally" when it might not be appropriate -- but who really cares about that? I strongly recommend this book. The author may not want to duplicate her efforts too closely in any future book, but there are certainly enough stories still untold to make a sequel. Most of them may even be true.
