Orion DeepMap 600 Folding Star Chart Report
Orion DeepMap 600 Folding Star Chart Review by ALV
Good single source for the night sky visible to the eye and binoculars. Has beginner level information but as one advances in skill you will be able to take advantage of the detail offered. Works well with more detailed star references.
Orion DeepMap 600 Folding Star Chart Review by Jorjia
This map is very detailed, but the detail is very small, and hard to see.
I was looking for a map with the constellations, and not the complete cosmos.I am still satisfied with this purchase.
Orion DeepMap 600 Folding Star Chart Review by Morgan Davies (Scarborough, Canada)
The Orion DeepMap 600 Folding Star Chart is my favorite for binocular astronomy, travel astronomy and a “quick look” at the stars.
It folds up like a road map and fits in my coat pocket. It is made of a tough plastic that resists wind and dew. It lists 600 deep sky objects – galaxies, nebulae, star clusters and double stars. There are more celestial objects here than most amateur astronomers will observe in a lifetime.
It also lists each object`s Right Ascension and Declination, size, brightness and a brief description of each object.
Because I find this information so helpful for finding and identifying deep sky objects I refer to the Orion DeepMap along with the superb Sky Atlas 2000 by Wil Tirion and Roger W. Sinnott.
The only real weakness of the Orion DeepMap is the absence of the sky south of -60*. But this is of absolutely no consequence for observers north of 30* north latitude, and it is of little consequence anywhere in the northern hemisphere.
The Orion DeepMap successfully bridges the gap between a good planesphere, such as David Levy`s Guide To The Stars, and a high end star chart such as the Star Atlas 2000. Because of it`s dew resistance, extreme portability and the information about over 600 deep sky objects, the Orion Deep Map 600 has unique benefits that make it, for me at least, not only the best pocket star chart for the money, but among the most useful star charts available at any price.

Orion DeepMap 600 Folding Star Chart:: Description
It’s the first-ever star chart that folds up like a road map! DeepMap 600 shows the positions of the 600 finest celestial objects visible from the Northern Hemisphere. All are plotted on a giant 33″ x 21″ full-color star chart by world-renowned star-mapper Wil Tirion. DeepMap 600 is designed for easy location of hundreds of deep-sky objects with telescopes and binoculars. Color-coded symbols identify more than 500 galaxies, nebulas, and star clusters-including all 109 Messier objects-as well as some 100 of the most interesting double and variable stars. No other single star chart includes so many objects! What makes DeepMap 600 really indispensable is that it folds up accordion style to a thin, pocket-size 4-3/4″ x 10-1/2-just like a road map! No longer must you fumble with bulky books, star atlases, and observing references to find interesting objects to view.
