The planisphere is the ideal tool for learning to recognize stars and constellations. It's your guide to the stars.
The planisphere consists of a round astronomical map with a celestial pole in the center. The astronomical map represents all the stars, constellations, and objects such as nebulae (see below) visible in a given area. The firmament is not always presented in the same way: stars rise and fall, and in summer you may see a different sky than in autumn, winter, or spring.
For this reason, the planisphere has another disc at the top of the astronomical map. The disc has a transparent opening, the horizon opening, which represents the segment of the sky visible on a given date and time. You can easily adjust the planisphere to this date and time.
It contains more than 700 stars and about 300 binocular objects: deep-sky objects such as galaxies, nebulae, star clusters, double stars, etc., to be discovered with the naked eye or at least with ordinary binoculars.
