Star Theatre Expansion Disk Southern Hemisphere

Star Theatre Southern Hemisphere Expansion Disk.

With the Star Theatreprojection planetarium from Sega Toys you will have a real portable planetarium with a rotating movement that reproduces the appearance of the firmament throughout the year.

With adjustable projection angle and focus, automatic shut-off timer and shooting star function (shooting star effect appears), the Star Theatreprojection planetarium is one of the most advanced planetariums on the market.

It comes standard with two interchangeable disks with the fixed stars of the northern hemisphere:

- night sky with about 60,000 stars

- night sky with drawn constellation lines.

Now,imagine seeing the sky from a different angle. The dream becomes reality 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 disks can be purchased in two double packs, or purchased separately. The packs are DISK SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE+DISK ANDROMEDA and DISK DAYTIME EARTH AND MOON+DISK NIGHTTIME EARTH AND MOON.

ONLY ONE DISC IS SUPPLIED UNDER THIS REFERENCE:

SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE DISC:

The southern hemisphere sky is as beautiful (or 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!

Main features of the expansion disks:

With the Star Theater planetarium you have technology that lets you dream. Imagine seeing the night sky with all its stars and beauty, while sitting comfortably on your couch. Finally, something is happening in your house since the Big Bang!

You will probably never have the opportunity to visit space. But with the new disks Sega Toys offered by Telescopiomania you do have the chance to bring the beauty of outer space into your home.

These additional disks 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 into 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 the 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.
