STAR LOCATOROuter space is filled with trillions of stars and planets! For thousands of years, long before the invention of the telescope, humans have observed and studied the twinkling lights that fill our night skies. Early star gazers would locate and identify stars by grouping and connecting them in shapes called constellations. Constellations are basically dot-to-dot pictures made from the stars above. These pictures were created and used by farmers, poets and astronomers to tell stories, mark the seasons and map the heavens. Now, you can find these constellations yourself using your own STAR LOCATOR! Due to Earth’s rotation the location of stars and constellations are always moving. By adjusting the time and date settings on your STAR LOCATOR you can see a map of the constellations that are visible from where you are.Please note: This chart reads standard time, please set the chart back an hour in order to adjust for Daylight Savings time.

1) Rotate the star wheel so that the TIME lines up with the current DATE.

2) Use a compass or ask a grown-up to help you find NORTH.

3) Hold the STAR LOCATOR above your head and look up at it.

4) Rotate the whole STAR LOCATOR so that NORTH is pointing north and SOUTH is pointing south.

5) The stars will appear in the same relative positions on the STAR LOCATOR as they do in the sky.

If you’d like to see the stars and planets close up, visit the worldwide telescope online at nasa.gov and see images from all over the universe!
