Excellent product for the beginner astronomer! All data needed to understand the starts in an easy package
Quick shipping, very nice storage box. Easy to understand. Some of the colors on card blend with the words.
The new Cosmic Shards Stargazing Cards are an excellent gift for those interested in astronomy. The Constellations set is organized by season, with each of the laminated cards providing detailed information for observing one of the eighty-eight regions of the night sky. The cards are packed full of observation details: where to find the stars relative to nearby constellation regions, the latitude visibility zones, nearby galaxies and star clusters, and the best months of the year for observing. The cards also include discovery details, some of the mythological basis for the constellations, and additional notes and facts regarding the history of the constellations. The cards are designed for red-light / night vision use, feel durable for outdoor use in varying weather conditions, and have the advantage of being separable into clusters to make stargazing for specific objects during astronomy sessions easier. I highly recommend these card sets as gifts and for those with a personal interest in astronomy.
No screens, no batteries, just useful and practical information for beginners and experienced astronomers alike. These are very helpful for planning observing sessions and learning the night sky. Cleverly organized by color code into seasons makes finding appropriate objects to observe a snap. These will also be great to keep near my scope at public star watches to share information and help people see what to expect when they look into the eyepiece.
Beautifully crafted. I am very much looking forward to seeing what comes next!
