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.

Product Description

The 16-inch diameter plastic star chart is for use in the northern hempisphere between 30-60 degrees of lattitude. It consists of two plastic circles riveted together that can be turned to find the stars for any hour or day of the year. Binocular and small telescope objects are noted on the chart. The back of the chart is packed with information including a table for the annual meteor shower, Moon map, planet facts, a tickle of mythology, astro history timeline, fun facts and more.

Note about the Planets: The planets are not plotted on charts of this type because they move daily along the gray circular band within the white oval. This path in the sky is called the ecliptic.

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.
