Even with the AutoStar 30,000 object library, star charts and planispheres are
still useful for a variety of reasons. In particular, they are a great aid in
planning a night of celestial viewing.
A wide variety of star charts are available in books, in magazines, on the
internet and on CD Roms. Meade offers AutoStar Suite
locator software. Contact your Meade dealer or Meade's Customer Service
department for more information.
Astronomy and Sky and Telescope magazines print star charts each month
for up-to-the-minute maps of the heavens.
