Hi All,

I can't remember if someone had already put this link up so I thought I would post just in case.

The Mag-7 Star Atlas plots stars down to Magnitude 7.25, with double / multiple stars indicated by a thin horizontal bar. Plotted DSO's (Deep Sky Objects) include all objects on the Messier list, the RASC's finest NGC list, and the Herschell 400 list --- more than 550 DSO's in total.

Link is here:

I've already printed out & laminated about half of them - At DSC over the weekend I found myself wanting to look at maps - it's just easier sometimes than doing it all on the laptop (assuming you have one to hand) The quality looks good.  

Cheers,  John
