Star Charts

[Telrad]

I've seen a few Star Charts on the internet, are there any charts that are recommended and used by members?

If you want something that can be printed out, take a look at the Triatlas JR's website on Deep Sky Astronomy

You can choose the scale/faintness that best suits your equipment/viewing conditions, and print out the page(s) you require as you require them, thus building up an entire atlas over time.

Hi

I use the laminated version of the "Sk Atlas 2000"

Wouldn't be without it.

You can draw on it with china graph pencils to show fields of view and star hopping routes across the sky.

Then simply wipe clean at the end of a session.

Being a clumsy oaf it doesn't matter if I spill coffee or tea on it either.

I have Uranometria 2000, it includes clear grid laminates to help in the positioning of targets in RA and Dec, but you can also make you own and mark on your finder circles.
