Book excerpt: Excerpt from Half-Hours With the Stars: A Plain and Easy Guide to the Knowledge of the Constellations, Showing, in Twelve Maps, the Position for the United States of the Principal Star Groups Night After Night Throughout the Year; With Introduction and a Separate Explanation of Each Map, True F But although this illustration serves to indicate the nature Of the maps, the actual mode of using them is more convenient. Let it first be noted that properly speaking the maps have neither top, bottom, nor sides. Each map may be held with any part of the circumference downward then the centre of the map is to be looked upon as the top for that part of the circumference. The portion Of the map lying beneath the centre represents the portion of the sky lying between the point overhead and a certain part of the horizon - the part in fact corresponding to the particular part of the circum ference which is turned downwards. Thus if on any night we wish to learn what are the stars towards the north, we look for the map corresponding to that night. At the hour named the stars toward the north will be those shown between the centre Of the map and the top; and, of course.

Book excerpt: It is very easy to gain a knowledge of the stars, if the learner sets to work in the proper manner. But he commonly meets with a difficulty at the outset of his task. He provides himself with a set of the ordinary star maps, and then finds himself at a loss how to make use of them. Such maps tell him nothing of the position of the constellations on the sky. If he happen to recognize a constellation, then indeed his maps, if properly constructed, will tell him the names of the stars forming the constellation, and also he may be able to recognize a few of the neighboring constellations. But when he has done this he may meet with a new difficulty, even as respects this very constellation. For if he look for it again some months later, he will neither find it in its former place nor will it present the same aspect, -if indeed it happen to be above the horizon at all. It is clear, then, that what the learner wants is a set of maps specially constructed to show him in what part of the sky the constellations are to be looked for. He ought on any night of the year to be able to turn at once to the proper map, and in that map he ought to see at once what to look for, toward what point of the compass each visible constellation lies, and how high it is above the horizon. And, if possible (as the present work shows is the case), one map ought to suffice to exhibit the aspect of the whole heavens, in order that the beginner may not be confused by turning from map to map, and trying to find out how each fits in with the others

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Half-Hours With the Stars: A Plain and Easy Guide to the Knowledge of the Constellations, Showing in 12 Maps, the Position of the Principal Star-Groups Night After Night Throughout the Year It is necessary, perhaps, to point out that this work is intended as a companion to a series of star-charts, not as in itself a star-atlas. The possessor Of a good star-atlas will find that this work serves the purpose of a key to the atlas; and, on the other hand, the possessor of the present work will find that an atlas is needed to exhibit the details of constellations. We do not at present possess any satisfactory atlas sufficiently cheap for general use. I am pre paring, however, a small atlas, reduced from my large one, which will present many advantages over any at present in existence. Although the work will be small and handy - such a book as the Observer can conveniently carry in his pocket - the superficial scale will be half as large again as that of the S. D. U. K. Smaller atlas, each map of which occupies a sheet some 16 inches square. Yet each map Of the series will cover a tenth part of the heavens, the reduction in size being simply obtained by the adeption of a scheme which reduces the distortion to an absolute minimum.
