When you line up the time of day with the day of the year a planisphere will show you what you'll see in the night sky as you look North, South, East or West. These are a great way to get your bearings and to learn to star hop around the night sky.

Description du produit

La carte stellaire en plastique de 16 pouces de diamètre est destinée à être utilisée dans l'hempisphère nord entre 30 et 60 degrés de latitude. Il se compose de deux cercles en plastique rivés ensemble qui peuvent être tournés pour trouver les étoiles pour n'importe quelle heure ou jour de l'année. Les objets binoculaires et petits télescopes sont notés sur la carte. Le verso de la carte regorge d'informations, notamment un tableau pour la pluie de météores annuelle, la carte de la Lune, des faits sur la planète, un chatouillement de la mythologie, la chronologie de l'histoire astro, des faits amusants et plus encore.

Remarque sur les planètes : les planètes ne sont pas tracées sur des cartes de ce type car elles se déplacent quotidiennement le long de la bande circulaire grise à l'intérieur de l'ovale blanc. Cette trajectoire dans le ciel s'appelle l'écliptique.

I wish I had this planisphere in 1984.

This 16” diameter planisphere is a wonderful device. Probably most observers are like me: after 40 years, still not totally familiar with the constellations. This puppy is almost like a star atlas — lots of stars shown, quite a few deep-sky objects are plotted, bright stars are named — AND — I never have to turn a page. Plus no amount of dew or squashed mosquitoes will ever degrade it. 100% plastic!

Seriously, if you want to learn the constellations better, find your way by star-hopping with binocs or a modest scope…. this bad boy will be your saviour. There’s also a lot of handy “under the stars” text on the back. Not cheap. Yet a tremendous value.

Ken Press 16" Planisphere

Ever since I saw a similar planisphere in the giftshop of the HR MacMillan Planetarium I have always wanted one. Because of cloudy weather I have not really had a chance to use it, but I'm sure it will come in handy the spring and summer. Sure is big! Also, it is easy to read.

A large and easy to read chart. I should have realized the scale’s size at purchase and was surprised when I opened the box and saw it for the first time. It turned out to be a good thing when multiple people are viewing it at the same time and much more friendly when viewing under red light. It is very detailed and extremely helpful finding what you’re looking for in the night sky.
