Gift Set - How to Observe the Stars

Gift set in a box. Inside it: the book "How to Observe the Stars" by astronomer and astrophotographer Ruslan Ilnitsky, a double-sided foldable star map (when unfolded, 790x640 mm), and a star atlas. The book "How to Observe the Stars"... is a guide to the world of astrophotography. It contains everything an amateur astronomer needs to know before and after purchasing a telescope. The star map features the northern and southern hemispheres of the celestial sphere. This is how the night sky with its shimmering galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters can be seen from the North and South Poles of the Earth. The stars on the map are ranked by apparent stellar magnitude. The names of the brightest stars and the conventional outlines of all 88 constellations are provided. Brief information on the Solar System, celestial sphere, star coordinates, ecliptic, and zodiacal circle is included. With the star atlas, you can determine which stars and constellations are visible in the sky at any date and time of day, as well as establish the approximate position of the Sun in its annual motion along the ecliptic. The atlas shows stars down to the 5th apparent magnitude in the declination range from +90 to -50 degrees.
