About this deal

Hold your counting tube up to your eyes and count all of the stars you see through the tube, being careful not to count any star twice. Write the number in your notebook. Create A Night Sky Projection Kit:If you've got time with the kids to fill, this could be a fun introduction to stargazing. Don't expect to be dazzled by a plug-and-play awe-inspiring experience, but you can enjoy the process of setting it up with your kids.★★★

The northeastern sky on November evenings hosts the bright constellations of Perseus and W-shaped Cassiopeia, with the very bright star Capella positioned below them. The November Full Moon, traditionally known as the Beaver Moon or Frost Moon, always shines within or near the stars of Taurus and Aries. (Image credit: Chris Vaughan/Starry Night)The "far side" of the Moon looks very different than the near side (see the first photo in this article). Notice how few dark areas the far side has. This image is based on data from NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft. Credit: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center/Arizona State University In theory, yes. Most models of star projectors run from mains AC power or DC through a USB port, so they will run as long as they are plugged in. Some models are battery-powered, meaning you run the risk of the battery running out of power overnight.

To do this type of experiment you should know what the following terms mean. Have an adult help you search the Internet, or take you to your local library to find out more! The Atmosphere Smart Galaxy Projector is incredibly user-friendly, allowing you to use voice control to change colors, adjust brightness and control the speed of the projections. You can also control it using the Smart App on your smartphone (available for Android and iOS). On the app, you'll see a color wheel with a broad spectrum of tones, ranging from cool blue to warm fiery red. However, in our testing, we found that while it's certainly impressive to offer 16.7 million different colors, it's unlikely you'll actually be able to distinguish them all with the naked eye. Over the month, Saturn's brightness will diminish a little from magnitude 0.7 to 0.85. Viewed in a telescope during November Saturn will show an apparent disk diameter of 17.4 arc-seconds, and its rings will span nearly 41 arc-seconds. Pococo Galaxy Star ProjectorIt does what it is supposed to — it projects high-quality imagery onto any surface to immerse you in the wonders of what the universe has to offer, maintaining a static picture or slowly rotating image.★★★★ Like many other star projectors, there's a 'shooting star' function, although, in our Sega Homestar Flux review, we explained how we'd like this to be at random intervals, or in a different place each time so it isn't as predictable. It has an automatic switch-off after 15, 30 or 60 minutes function.

On November evenings, the Andromeda Galaxy is positioned very high in the eastern sky. (Image credit: Chris Vaughan/Starry Night) After the first week of November Mercury will become visible above the southwestern horizon after sunset. Its position several degrees south of the ecliptic will hold it very low in the sky for mid-northern latitude observers — making this a very poor apparition for them, but an excellent one for residents of the tropics and the Southern Hemisphere where the planet will be much higher after sunset. Algol normally shines at magnitude 2.1, similar to the nearby star Almach (aka Gamma Andromedae). But while fully dimmed, Algol's brightness of magnitude 3.4 is almost identical to Rho Persei (or Gorgonea Tertia or ρ Per), the star sitting just two finger widths to Algol's lower right (or 2.25 degrees to the celestial south). The hardware is simple and straightforward. It includes a small lamp that runs on 4 x AA batteries (not included) and a square base. The assembled night sky dome, positioned over the lamp, has support fixed at each of its four corners. Once the lights are off, the stars on the globe light up, casting their projections onto the walls and ceiling. Once again, we're not sure what we love most about this feature-rich Aurora Borealis Northern Lights Star Projector. You can easily choose between a whopping 16.7 million Aurora colors by using the buttons on the device, the remote control that comes with it or your smartphone.

Does the number of visible stars in the night sky change, depending upon the lunar phase? In this experiment you will count the number of stars in the sky during different phases of the moon. Will there be more stars during a full moon, quarter moon or new moon? Terms and Concepts It serves no other purpose or provides any scientific accuracy. Still, it is a discrete, affordable, high-quality device that puts out visually stunning lasers to transform your surroundings while drawing very little energy. The operation of the motor is very smooth and quiet, so it would be fine as a night light to drift off to sleep. As we mentioned in our review, the lighting module seems to be the same — if just a tiny bit less impressive — as other star projectors we have reviewed, including the BlissLights Sky Lite 2.0and the Encalife Atmosphere Smart Galaxy Star Projector. They are by no means scientific, but they can be customized using the supplied remote control to any speed and color configuration you like. BlissLights Sky Lite EvolveThe nebulas are bright and endearing, complimented perfectly by the hue of the blue/green lasers.This is a great option for anyone shopping for a mood-enhancing star projector (rather than a scientific one). ★★★½ That corresponds to six by two full moon diameters! In a dark sky, M31 can be seen with your unaided eyes as a sizeable faint smudge located 1.4 fist diameters to the lower left (or 14 degrees to the celestial northeast) of Alpheratz, the star that occupies the lower left (northeastern) corner of the Great Square of Pegasus. The three higher (westernmost) stars of Cassiopeia, named Caph, Shedar, and Gamma Cas, also conveniently form an arrow that points toward M31.Planets, named for the Greek word for "wanderer," process through the starfield a little each day, executing loops with time scales dependent on the length of the planet's year or orbital period around the Sun. Planets, to the naked eye, appear as points of light in the sky with variable brightness. Planets shine due to sunlight reflecting or scattering from the planets' surface or atmosphere. Thus, the relative Sun-planet-Earth positions determine the planet's brightness. With a telescope or good binoculars, the planets appear as discs demonstrating finite size, and it is possible to observe orbiting moons which cast shadows onto the host planet's surface. Venus is the most prominent planet, often called the "morning star" or "evening star" because it is brighter than the stars and often the only "star" visible near sunrise or sunset, depending on its location in its orbit. Because of its brightness, Venus can sometimes be seen after sunrise. Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are also visible to the naked eye in the night sky. Another way to measure light is to use a light meter. A light meter will give a reading of the amount of light present. You can buy a light meter, or you may have one as an option in your camera. Take light readings at night during different phases of the moon. Do the changes in light values correlate with the numbers of visible stars during each lunar phase?
