It is a planisphere—a rotatable star wheel that can be aligned with any date and time (past, present \u0026amp; future), resulting in a display of the night sky for that period of time. When the star finder is pre-exposed to light, all of the major stars will glow in the dark, mimicking the way they actually look in the night sky.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInside you will find a collection of more detailed star charts for each of the four seasons. The charts are clear and concise, allowing you to find objects in the sky with your binoculars or telescope by “star-hopping.” An illustrated reference section provides information on various types of objects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCelestron Sky Maps are made from 13-1\/4” x 11-1\/4” water-resistant, heavy-duty card stock for years of enjoyment and use.
