Introducing: The Knight Double-Sided Planisphere
by adminSpectrum Scientifics has now added the Knight Double-Sided Planisphere to its astronomy line-up!
The Knight planisphere is a vast improvement over previous planispheres that were either made of laminated cardboard, or were too large, or too small to be of use. The Knight planisphere is made of plastic, and has is double sided: one side for viewing when facing North and one while facing South. This gives more detailed views and makes it easier to read the planisphere. Also included is a built-in compass to help with orienting yourself.
In addition, we have also added the Deluxe Knight Planisphere which includes the planisphere as well as a useful carabiner red flashlight. This flashlight uses red light to preserve night vision while still giving your a light to examine your planisphere. In addition, the carabiner has a clock/timer. Also included in the set is a DVD filled with awesome images of outer space from the NASA and Hubble archives. Dozens and dozens of exquisite photographs in a way never seen before.
