A star map is ideal for all those nighttime hangouts. The ‘Crumpled Sky Map’ is one way of gazing at the night sky, but without having to go outside of your room.
If you’ve ever wanted to hold the universe in your hands, but lack the necessary resources for universal domination, then the Crumpled Sky Map will offer you the next best thing. The star map is printed onto Tyvek, a durable waterproof paper-like material, so carrying it outside or spilling orange juice onto it won’t be much of an issue. It also glows in the dark, which makes it ideal if you want to generate a romantic atmosphere with your significant other. The crumpled-up star map measures approximately 90cm x 90cm and can also be used as wallpaper.
