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 refer-
ence 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.
