With a universe of options to explore, it can be difficult to track what awe-inspiring treasures are visible in your sky each month. To
help guide your explorations throughout the year, Sky’s Up is providing the following collection of seasonal star maps created by
noted celestial cartographer Wil Tirion. Based in The Netherlands, Tirion has been crafting stars maps since the 1970s and became
a professional uranographer shortly after the publication of his highly regarded Sky Atlas 2000.0 in 1981. To learn more about Tirion
and his work, click here.
