Fixed-star projecting machine for planetarium

摘要

A fixed-star projecting machine for a planetarium includes a fixed-star projection lens unit in each polygon of the globe surface of a fixed-star projection globe divided into a plurality of parts. Of these projection lens units, one whose projection range covers both sides of the equator is adapted to have its optical axis shifted in the direction which increases the attaching angle. The star positions of the fixed-star negative of the shifted projection lens unit are corrected to the normal projection positions according to the amount of shift.
