Description
Take the night sky with you.
The Night Sky Field Guide is a printable companion for naked-eye stargazing: star-finder charts for Polaris, Orion, the Summer Triangle, Cassiopeia, and Leo, a moon phase and meteor shower calendar, hand-measurement techniques, the Bortle dark-sky scale, a beginner’s glossary, and a fill-in observation log to track what you’ve seen.
Every star position is plotted from real astronomical coordinates, the same method professional star charts use, not drawn by eye. What you see on the page is what’s actually in the sky.
Print it on cardstock and laminate it, and it holds up to dew, dark skies, and repeat use outside.
Giving it as a gift? Just open the PDF, click the cover’s ‘Prepared for’ field, and type their name before you print, a nice touch for a birthday, holiday, or any stargazer in your life.
Perfect alongside Exploring the Night Sky: A Beginner’s Guide, the field guide is your at-a-glance companion outside, the full guide is where you learn the why behind what you’re seeing.
