Description

A planisphere is a circular diagram or chart that shows the night sky and the stars in it at a particular moment in time. It is a tool that is frequently used by students, stargazers, and amateur astronomers to quickly identify constellations, stars, and other celestial bodies that are visible from a specific location on Earth. Planispheres are made to be intuitive to use and offer a visual aid for comprehending how the positions of celestial objects change throughout the night and throughout the seasons.

We bring to you a very special and wonderful astronomical tool. Star clusters, nebulae, galaxies and all 88 major constellations are now within your reach in this Planisphere. Learn to find the addresses of these objects using this tool and go out to locate them in real time night sky!
