Planisphere with moon phases
Hi guys,
some time ago I saw a special planisphere (a star chart that can be adjusted to display the night sky for any given latitude, time and date) on a website but I forgot the link. The special of this planisphere was the implemented moon phases on the edge of the map. There were several moon phases (more then 20) around the map (circumferential) to see the changing moon phase for the given date and time. Here is an example for a planisphere, but without moon phases. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planisphere I think the special planisphere came from USA but I am not sure. I forgot name and link. Does anybody know the planisphere with implemented moon phases? I couldn't find it with google. Many thanks in advance! Clear Skies! Bernd |

Hmmm, using "moon phase planisphere" to Google found this quickly: http://www.galileotelescope.com/observing_astro__the_moon_phase.php it costs Rs.99 -- I have no idea what currency that is. |

Bernd Try www.calsky.com Its shows moon phase and you can set it for anywhere on the planet its in English but its out of Germany. it can also be set for whatever amount of sky you want to see and actually can show photos of nebula and galaxies. |

Going by the flag on the home page, I'd say rupees. Pretty cheap at the price. Bud -- The night is just the shadow of the Earth. |
