How to use this map
Facing either south or north, look at the appropriate star map. Your view of the sky should roughly match the major stars and
constellations shown. You’ll see more stars as your eyes get accustomed to the dark, so wait for 10-15 minutes if you’re having
trouble spotting the constellations. (For full sky maps go to skymaps.com).
