I have come into possession of a a three-dimensional star atlas that appears to be identical to the Starship Earth globe listed in the Celestaire catalog (p.23). Mine lacks the instruction book mentioned in the catalog and, I am embarrassed to say, I have not been able to intuit exactly how to use the globe. Does anyone have this booklet? If so, could you post a scan of it on nav-list? Failing this, perhaps someone could tell me how to orient the parts and how I am supposed to look at it.Thanks for your help.Best regards,Patrick
