Stellarscope

Description

A compact, handheld, easy-to-use educational guide to the stars and constellations… in the shape of a kaleidoscope. View the night sky for any date and time in either the Northern or Southern hemispheres by simply setting the time and date dials on the scope, point the scope towards a light source, and you will see the stars and constellations appearing in the sky on that night. Although it resembles a kaleidoscope, the Stellarscope is not a toy. It was designed by Bernard Vuarnesson, and manufactured in France. It comes with computer-drawn star maps, four latitude adaptors which allow for viewing throughout the world, and complete instructions.It also includes a pocket keychain light for use as an alternative light source. The unit is only 6.5 inches long, and is the most compact portable way to learn about the night sky.
