November Evening Star Chart

November Morning Star Chart

For early birds I’m including a morning star chart too, which shows the stars we’ll see in the evening 4 months from now.

If you want to convert the above times for your locality in North America click here.

The outer edge of the chart is the horizon with the compass points marked. The chart is oriented as one is looking south. The constellation outlines in magenta are those of the Zodiac. The magenta line is the ecliptic, the path of the sun. The white line that passes through the east and west compass points is the celestial equator, above the earth's equator. The white lines that cross in the north at the north celestial pole are major right ascension lines and are like meridians on the earth.

All constellations shown have the standard three letter abbreviation. The constellation abbreviations, names and bright star names are found here.

Also on the sky dome are helps to locate other stars and constellations from the Big Dipper, and asterisms.

• The arrow from the pointer stars of the Big Dipper to Polaris the North Star, near the north celestial pole.

• A leaky dipper drips on Leo

• Follow the arc of the handle of the Big Dipper to Arcturus.

• The Summer Triangle is in red.

• TauR is the approximate radiant of both the North and South Taurid meteor showers

• LeoR on the morning star chart is the radiant of the Leonid meteor shower, which peaks on the afternoon of the 17th.
