Each constellation featured is presented as a full-page spread with a transparent overlay. Details include: Name of the constellation Location, luminosity and dimensions of the main stars and most interesting objects Best time of night for observing History and characteristics Map of the constellation and its surroundings Transparency showing the outline of the constellation with its stars Full-page night-sky photo of the constellation.
