Un cherche-étoiles (on dit aussi un planisphère) est une carte circulaire dotée d'un masque qui tourne pour montrer, à travers une fenêtre, la région du ciel visible en fonction de l'heure, de la date et du lieu où vous observez. C'est un outil fort utile pour s'orienter sur la voûte céleste, identifier les constellations et planifier sa nuit d'observation. 5, record 1, French, - carte%20du%20ciel
