A work of art that no amateur astronomer should be without Astronomy ForumThe Firefly Planisphere is a valuable tool for beginner and advanced stargazers The previous edition published in 2013 had star maps up to 2022 This sixth edition updates the maps to 2030Charted by the month day hour and minute the Firefly Planisphere is easy to use batteryfree and weatherresistant The stargazer needs only to turn the wheel to align the current date and time What the seethrough panel reveals will match the view of the night skyThe planisphere shows the position of the stars for every night of the year Icons describe star magnitudes the larger the symbol the brighter the star making it easy to locate specific stars Stargazers will be able to identify planets stars constellations globular clusters nebulas galaxies and other celestial wondersFeatures includeAtaglance coordinates for locating the brightest objects in the sky Planetary tables to locate Venus Mars Jupiter and Saturn now improved for easier use An overlay window with a new shape for better viewing Times of sunrise and sunset for each day Declination and right ascension scales The ecliptic pathThe planispheres booklet provides accurate information on bright and faint stars the Milky Way and deepsky searching Other topics includeHow to use the planisphere Finding planets sunrise and sunset How to read a star map Learning the sky Exploring the skies season by seasonWith its improved features sturdy construction portability weather resistance smooth wheel rotation easytoread booklet and protective pocket the Firefly Planisphere is simply the handiest guide to the night sky for the amateur astronomer all at the same price as the previous edition just 1995. LATITUDE & LONGITUDE. There are three very important lines to help us find our way around the world. . 1. The . Equator. The . equator . is measured at 0° latitude. . It is an imaginary line that runs around the Earth halfway between the poles. This Line divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.. A . Reconfigurable Wireless Datacenter .

A place can be either in the NORTHERN or SOUTHERN hemisphere. That means it is in one of the halves above or below the imaginary east-west line known as the EQUATOR.. A place can also be in either the WESTERN or EASTERN hemisphere. That means it is in one of the halves on either side of the imaginary north-south line known as the PRIME MERIDIAN.. By Rick .
