What budding astronomer would want to find his or her way around the stars without the use of sky maps? Sky maps help you to identify stars, constellations, and planets, and help you find them through your telescope. Traditional sky maps, are available in a book format, available through bookstores or telescope retailers. For those who like a more high-tech approach, you can also use computerized sky maps, allowing you to browse through large databases of thousands of celestial objects and even allowing you to connect with a computerized telescope for an automated tour of the Milky Way or Andromeda.
