The Night Sky - Northern Hemisphere Stargazer Map and Guide is centered on Polaris; the North Star; which appears fixed in place with the other stars on the chart rotating around it. The Night Sky - Southern Hemisphere Stargazer Map and Guide is centered near Crux; the Southern Cross; which appears nearly fixed in place with the other stars on the chart rotating around it. The constellations and brighter stars are labeled with their Latin names. The maps also includes a table of star magnitude or brightness and four seasonal charts that are specific for each season.

The Moon Stargazer Map and Guide includes detailed maps of the Near and Far Side and helpful tips on Moongazing from Earth. Each feature is listed in a detailed index to help easily locate them across the Moon's surface. The map also includes the landing and crash sites of spacecraft that have visited the Moon from Earth. Graphics describing the Moon's phases; rotations; and both solar and lunar eclipses help explain these phenomenon. Earth's moon is not the only moon in our local solar system. A graphic on the map shows the relative size of moons from the Mars' tiny Deimos to the enormous Titan orbiting Saturn.

The Solar System Stargazer Map and Guide includes detailed images of the planets and a striking comparison of all of the planets relative to the much larger Sun. A map of the planets shows their progression as they orbit around the Sun from Mercury's 88 days to Neptune's 165 years.
