Star Theatre Southern Hemisphere and Andromeda Expansion Disc Packs
Set of two additional disks for one of the best planetariums on the market and the most easily transportable of all. Enjoy the total realism of the sky with your Star Theatre Planetarium from Sega Toys.
Star Theatre Southern Hemisphere and Andromeda Expansion Discs Pack.
With the projection planetarium Star Theatre from Sega Toys you will have a real portable planetarium equipped with a rotating movement that reproduces the appearance of the firmament over the course of a year.
With adjustable projection angle and focus, timer for automatic shut-off and shooting star function (shooting star effect appears), the projection planetarium Star Theatre is one of the most advanced on the market.
As standard it is supplied with two interchangeable discs with the fixed stars of the northern hemisphere:
- night sky with some 60,000 stars
- night sky with the lines of the constellations drawn.
Now, imaginate to see the sky from a different angle. The dream comes true with the additional disks for the fantastic planetarium Sega Toys Star Theater. These new disks allow you to travel to four different places in the universe without leaving home. You can prepare the planetarium for your next astronomical trip to the southern hemisphere, observe the Earth or the Moon by day or night, or even get up close to the Andromeda Galaxy. All this is finally possible with the new expansion disks.
The four additional discs can be purchased in two double packs, or they can be purchased separately. The packs are DISCO HEMISFERIO SUR+DISCO ANDRÓMEDA and DISCO TIERRA Y LUNA DIURNAS+DISCO TIERRA Y LUNA NOCTURNAS.
UNDER THIS REFERENCE, TWO DISCS ARE SUPPLIED IN A PACK:
SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE DISK:
The southern hemisphere sky is just as beautiful (if not more so) as the northern hemisphere's. Find out what the penguins are seeing for no less than six months of the year!
The southern hemisphere disk complements the northern hemisphere disk included with the planetarium and shows the sky that can be seen from the southern hemisphere, from latitude about 35° south. It is the sky visible from the parallel passing through the Australian capital of Canberra, Auckland on the north island of New Zealand, Cape Town and Buenos Aires. This sky includes almost 15,000,000 stars!
ANDROMEDA GALAXY DISK:
The Andromeda galaxy is a spiral galaxy located about 2.2 million light-years from Earth, and is the farthest deep-sky object visible to the naked eye.
The Andromeda galaxy M31 is the closest spiral galaxy to our Milky Way galaxy and was first described in 964 as a "small cloud". As its name suggests, the galaxy is in the constellation Andromeda. The image featuring this disk comes from the NASA Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission and highlights the older stellar population in blue. WISE was launched in 2009 and orbits Earth 15 times a day at 525 km above our homes. In the upper left of the galaxy, another small galaxy in collision with Andromeda, M32 and also its satellite galaxy M100, can be seen.
Main characteristics of expansion disks:
With the Star Theater planetarium you have technology that allows you to dream. Imagine watching the night sky with all its stars and beauty, while sitting comfortably on your couch. Finally, something is happening in your home since the Big Bang!
You'll probably never get the chance to visit space. But with the new Sega Toys telescopiomania offers you the opportunity to bring the beauty of outer space into your home.
These additional records have been made using data from a number of different NASA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and United States Naval Observatory (USNO) missions.
Data from no less than 100,000,000 celestial objects have been recoded from more than 150,000 exposures in Arizona, the United States and Chile. They amount to more than 4.1 TB of raw data that have been processed for the generation of the night sky images used in the disks.
The images of Earth have been created from data from a total of six missions over a decade. Images and measurements from NASA and NOAA missions have been combined to show us the Earth, sea ice, oceans, clouds, city lights, as well as topography. The images of the Moon are taken from the photographic record of the Clementine probe. More than 43,000 images have been recorded occupying more than 88 CDs, the images have a resolution of 100 meters per pixel.
