Materials and Forms
In addition to the instructions, further materials for observation are provided here. The gnomonic map set Altas Brno is intended for visual observation. These special meteor star maps, with their distortion towards the edge, require a good knowledge of the starry sky. But only on such maps can meteors be plotted as straight lines, which is not the case with regular star maps. Unfortunately, the introduction to the atlas is in Czech, but the coordinate calculations can be used for each map. These gnomonic maps should be enlarged to A3 size, and they can also be obtained from us (see contact persons).
