Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My husband loves astronomy and I got him a telescope for Christmas and needed a planisphere so both of us could learn more about the stars. He is a lot more advanced that I am, but he loves this chart and I have no trouble reading it. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for some celestial reference. I did expect there to be more to it, (like more pages) but I am the novice -so what do I know?- and my husband was very pleased.
