Watch as students delight in recognizing constellations in the night sky using this high-tech, yet simple to operate new product! The Night Navigator uses a built-in digital compass and patented chip technology to help students locate any of 43 constellations and even all first magnitude stars and visible planets! Sixteen colorful (but night-vision protecting) illuminated charts label and divide the sky into clear, understandable sections and orient themselves to the viewers perspective. Even tells you how high in the sky to look. What's more, Night Navigator identifies night-sky objects students discover on their own!Battery-powered and completely portable, it's ideal for both individual and small group instruction. Requires no other equipment, but its also an invaluable guide for those using binoculars or a telescope. For quick learning, the charts "connect the dots" to show both ancient Greek representations and modern teaching patterns. (For example, Sagittarius is portrayed in green as the classical centaur- archer, and is also given in red as the modern "teapot".) When you first get Night Navigator, just enter your time, date and location- it's easy. Then it always "knows" what it's pointing at- and where to turn to find whatever you want. (Requires 4 AA and 2 user- supplied batteries.) Works accurately around the world, between 25 (Key West) and 55 (the southern tip of Alaska), northern latitudes.
