Philip's Mini Stargazer by Philip's

Philip's Mini Stargazer is an excellent starter pack suitable for use in the northern hemisphere, containing three essential items to get the beginner started on the fascinating hobby of astronomy: Philip's Star Chart: An attractive folded wall chart showing the stars and constellations in three superb colour maps. Philip's Planisphere: A small-size, practical starfinder for locating the stars and constellations visible on any night of the year from the UK, Northern Europe and Canada (51.5 degrees N). Philip's Stargazing with Binoculars: This indispensable 208-page illustrated guide describes the wide range of objects that anyone can observe in the night sky using normal binoculars. It gives clear, step-by-step instructions for finding objects, with easy-to-use star maps covering the whole sky. Written by Robin Scagell (Vice President of the Society for Popular Astronomy) and David Frydman (a lifelong amateur astronomer who observes mainly with binoculars and small telescopes), this is an ideal introduction to observing the night sky.
