There are many more ways to locate a star besides using a Star Map. OSR helps you find stars by offering unique apps and tools, like the OSR Star Finder mobile app and our One Million Stars browser app. In this article, we’ll show you how to find the star named One Million Stars using multiple applications. This example star has the coordinates RA 13h03m33.35 -49°31’38.1” dec 4.83 mag Cen. About the coordinates • RA is the abbreviation for Right Ascension and dec is the abbreviation for declination. They are similar to latitude and longitude, but they relate to coordinates in the sky. • Mag stands for magnitude, which is the brightness of the star. The limiting brightness of stars seen with the naked eye is about magnitude 6.5. With binoculars, you can see to magnitudes of about 10. For magnitudes beyond that, using an amateur telescope is recommended. • Cen, in this case, stands for Centaurus, one of the 88 constellations that can be found in the sky. Knowing the constellation can help you locate a star more easily. OSR Star Finder app Finding a star in the night sky has been made easy with the Google Earth To find your star with the free version of Google Earth, simply use the following steps: • • From the top bar, select the pl...

What it is: Google comes out with some really incredible tools and How to integrate Tips: As a side note this would be a great site to couple with the Discovery Series “When We Left Earth.” If you haven’t had a chance to catch the series, they are wonderful! Leave a comment and share how you are using Google Sky in your classroom. Hi- I used Google Sky in my third grade classroom last week, and it was amazing! I just had to do a quick lesson on constellations. I read a little book to intro what constellations are, and then we darkened the room and fired up Google Sky on the front screen, using my laptop and projector. The kids learned so much and loved it! We just were wrapping up the solar system, so we poked around a bit on that portion as well. The students were much more engaged than they were with just the book. At the end, each student received a black piece of paper, and used a white crayon to create their own constellation in the night sky. Thanks for telling me about Google Sky!

In Virgo, right between Spica and Syrma, on Google Sky, if you click on infra red you can see what appears to be a black rectangle with a very bright object behind it. The Planet X / Nibiru conspiracy wackos are saying the black rectangle is google trying to cover up evidence of Nibiru. Of course... Nibiru is a "dark planet" which is "not visible with normal light." As often as otherwise intelligent people ask me about the whole Nibiru garbage I figured I should have some definitive information. I thought maybe someone here has an IR setup and has already checked it out, or could post their own pictures here. I would go out in a few hours and take look myself with the C14 / Hyperstar / Atik, and a few filters, but we have nothing but thick clouds tonight here. Besides... I don't know what I'm doing with IR anyways.

I'm guessing the IRAS controllers avoided bright planets to avoid damaging the sensors, hence the lack of data there.
