Featuring detailed commented spectral profiles of more than one hundred astronomical objects, in colour, this spectral reference documents important spectroscopically observable objects accessible to amateur-level equipment. It allows comparisons with your own recorded spectra to inspire amateurs and students to undertake independent observing projects.

Richard Walker spent his career in civil engineering, planning large projects such as power plants, dams and tunnels. Now retired, in the last ten years he has focused increasingly on stellar astronomy and on the indispensable key to this topic - spectroscopy. He undertook a large observing project to record and document the spectra of the most important astronomical objects, and chose to share this gathered information for the benefit of other amateurs worldwide.
