The Northern Sky
Every naked-eye star of the northern celestial hemisphere, plotted from the HYG catalogue and centred on the north pole. A true planisphere, not an illustration.
The Southern Sky
The southern celestial hemisphere down to the pole, Crux and the Magellanic sky included, mapped star for star from real catalogue positions.
Orion
Betelgeuse, Rigel and the belt in exact position, with the constellation figure traced over real stars. Winter's most recognised pattern.
Ursa Major
The Plough and the whole Great Bear, drawn from catalogue positions. The pointer stars that find Polaris are exactly where they sit in the sky.
Crux & Centaurus
The Southern Cross with Alpha and Beta Centauri pointing to it, plotted from real positions. The emblem of the southern sky.
Cassiopeia
The unmistakable W of Cassiopeia, five bright stars in true configuration against the northern Milky Way.
Scorpius
Antares at the heart and the curving tail toward the galactic centre, mapped star for star. The finest figure of the summer sky.
Cygnus
The Northern Cross flying down the Milky Way, Deneb at the tail, in exact catalogue position.
Leo
Regulus and the Sickle that forms the Lion's head, plotted from real stars. The herald of spring.
Taurus
Aldebaran, the Hyades and the Pleiades cluster in true position. A field dense with real, catalogued stars.
The Winter Sky
The great winter hexagon: Orion, Taurus, Gemini, Auriga and Canis Major together as they hang over a January evening, every star from real data.
The Summer Sky
The Summer Triangle over the galactic centre: Cygnus, Lyra, Aquila and the Milky Way toward Sagittarius, plotted from the catalogue.
