Everybody seems to love Chandler's Night Sky Planisphere...but me. I bought one, but find myself continually frustrated by the fact that when using the south-facing side, the planisphere coverage does not extend to the zenith. It seems freaky to have to flip to the north-facing side in order to see the higher sky towards the south. Facing north is terrific. Facing south gives me that 'looking through a straw' feeling, making it more difficult to 'get the big picture'. Am I not using this thing properly? I understand that this planisphere is designed to more accurately represent proportion, but I'm thinking of switching to one that lets me see more of the southern sky...even if not in ideal proportion. Any advice?
