Celestron - Sky Map
Celestron Sky Maps are the ideal teaching guide for learning the night sky. You wouldn't set
off on a road trip without a road map, and you don't need to try to navigate the night sky without
a map either. Even if you already know your way around the major constellations, these maps can
help you locate all kinds of fascinating objects.
The front cover has a specially designed
luminous planisphere that rotates to simulate the seasonal progression of celestial objects
through the sky. When the planisphere is pre-exposed to light, star positions glow brightly
against a dark background, mimicking actual constellations.
More than a thousand stars and
deep-sky objects are listed and charted. The illustrated reference section provides basic
information and the visual characteristics of various types of stars, nebulae and galaxies. The
maps measure 13.25" x 11.25" and are printed on a heavyweight, moisture resistant card stock. The
pages have a special comb binding so they can lay flat or be folded over.
