Description
Whether you’re at the bach, the beach, or out in the bush, navigate your way through the southern skies using your very own planisphere!
Perfect for use between 30° and 60° South, simply rotate the inner disk to line up the date and time to reveal the skies overhead in the viewing window! Made out of water-resistant plastic and secured with a stainless steel rivet and eyelets, it is a hardy traveler and perfect for stargazing on those camping trips away – both in the bush and the backyard.
The design includes several handy features, including:
- a list of constellation abbreviations on the back for reference
- different sized markings for different magnitudes of stars
- high-contrast constellations for easy-viewing at night.
Viewing your planisphere using a red light is recommended to allow for minimal disturbance to your eyes during stargazing.
Exclusive to Museums Wellington, this Space Place branded planisphere is part of our custom range of products.
This product is also available for purchase in store at Space Place.
