Night Sky Planispheres of Stars and Constellations
- *The Night Sky is not just another planisphere. I think The Night Sky is the finest and easiest to use star finding aid in existence. *--Jack Horkheimer, T.V's Star Hustler. Conventional planispheres severely distort the sky near the southern horizon. The distortion results from trying to stretch the whole dome of the sky onto a single flat map. The Night Sky is NOT a conventional planisphere! No flat map can remove all distortion, but The Night Sky eliminates over 90% of the distortion inherent in conventional 1-sided planispheres. Various Latitude Ranges available listed below in degrees. If you prefer to order by telephone or by fax, click here for more information. Product Numbers DCLPNS1, DCLPNS2, DCLPNS3 and DCLPNSSH1

Sky Atlases
- Written to fill a special need. More 2.5 inches (60mm) telescopes are sold than any other kind, but most star atlases assume at least a 6 or 8 inches telescope. We of course recommend that beginners start with a larger telescope, if possible, but the fact is most people start small. If you own a small telescope already you should supplement it with a pair of binoculars, learn to use the equipment you have, and start spending time under the stars. Featuring nearly 200 deep sky objects selected for visibility in a 2.5" telescope or simple binoculars, this atlas is designed to help you do just that.
