StarLab and Orientation/Navigation by Polaris

We were able to go into the StarLab portable planetarium with guest lecturer,Chuck Bueter from the Great Lakes Planetarium Association. Chuck also maintains the Paper Plate Education Web Site. We used our planispheres and the Latitude by Polaris devices before we went into the planetarium.

We built a student friendly "platisphere" with the Big Dipper, 2 stars from the Little Dipper, Polaris and Cassiopeia to help us find "North".
