Level
Beginner
What is a planisphere and why would we need one to look at the night sky? You'll see how you can make a planisphere with our handy planisphere print out.
We will show you how to use the planisphere for backyard astronomy. You'll need the planisphere print out (download below), some scissors, blu tack, a split pin (or similar) and some adult permission and supervision. View on YouTube.
