Product Description

Orion Star Target Planisphere, 30-50 degree
Orion Star Target Planisphere, 30-50 degree

Whether you're skywatching with just your eyes, with binoculars, or with a telescope, a planisphere star chart like the Star Target is an essential tool you'll use time and time again. It's an invaluable reference tool for learning the constellations, identifying stars, and locating popular bright celestial objects such as galaxies, open and globular star clusters, and nebulas.

The easy to use Orion Star Target Planisphere is a rounded star chart map which you rotate in its housing to dial in the date and time. Once the preferred date and time is dialed in, the Star Target displays a nicely detailed map of the current night sky. You can then rotate the Star Target to get a sneak peek of what objects will become visible as the night goes on, or to see when objects will be ideally positioned in the sky for observation through a telescope or pair of binoculars. It's easy to plan an entire night of stargazing fun in advance with the handy Orion Star Target, since it can tell you when and where your favorite objects and constellations will be visible.

The affordable Orion Star Target Planisphere features a detailed star map drafted by renowned celestial cartographer Wil Tirion. It shows all constellations visible from mid-northern latitudes ranging from 40-deg North to 60-deg North, as well as the locations of 100 showpiece star clusters, nebulas, and galaxies for viewing with binoculars or a telescope. The Star Target's map works year-round and year after year.The Star Target is a must-have for any stargazer, regardless of skill-level, but it is especially useful for beginners.

The planisphere is made of coated, dew-resistant cardboard, and measures 8-3/8" in diameter, so it's easy to stow just about anywhere. You just dial in the date and time, and -- voila! -- Star Target displays a current map of the night sky. On the back are simple directions plus viewing tips and a calendar of annual meteor showers. A must for any stargazer, especially beginners.

Love it! My daughter Go the new "space" american girl for her birthday. One of the accessories that came with the doll was a star chart. I was so excited to find the SAME exact star chart while going through amazon. Now she can match her doll!! I love astronomy, so it was a plus for me as well to share the excitement
