directions and their intermediate
points. To find stars, hold the map
overhead and orient it so one of
the labels matches the direction
you’re facing. The stars above
the map’s horizon now match
what’s in the sky.The all-sky map shows

MAGNITUDESSirius0.01.02.03.04.05.0STAR COLORS
A star’s color depends
on its surface temperature.-^
The hottest stars shine blue
- Slightly cooler stars appear white
- Intermediate stars (like the Sun) glow yellow
- Lower-temperature stars appear orange
- The coolest stars glow red
- Fainter stars can’t excite our eyes’ color
receptors, so they appear white unless you
use optical aid to gather more light
