Hello all, I'm a new user. I use to do celestial maps for beginners as well as detailed maps for my articles that I write in italian language. Most of my maps are in english, and I would like to show you one of my last map, created for a description of the Carina-Centaurus region of Milky Way. The map is available here
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi...ail_charta.png and has very high resolution (3,500 × 2,550 pixels, file size: 1.57 MB).
On this map are plotted stars up to 9.0 magnitude, most of the ionized (H II) regions and planetary nebulae (in green) and many open clusters and star associations (in yellow). Main OB associations and dark clouds are also included. You can download it following the link to the full resolution just below the map and saving it.
I like to have some suggestions or feedbacks, hoping that this map could be a small help for you. The map has a free license.
