Pages: 1 Faraway member Reged: 08/29/11 Loc: A white zone Star Chart that shows time?       #5510896 - 11/09/12 12:21 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Hi guys, Is there such a graph that can depict the appearance of the sky for a specific hour on a given date (besides a planisphere)? I seem to remember a kind of sinusoidal chart that depicted what would be above and below the horizon during a 24 hour period. What are those called and where would I find them? Any advice would be appreciated. Edited by Faraway (11/09/12 12:23 AM) Post Extras:       GlennLeDrew Postmaster Reged: 06/18/08 Loc: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Re: Star Chart that shows time?

It is nice size (read bigger than most) and works very good. Post Extras:       auriga Pooh-Bah Reged: 03/02/06 Re: Star Chart that shows time?
