Metal rings hold sun and sky,
A garden compass, still and bright.
Through shifting grass the seasons fly,
And stars are caught in rustic light.

No cause for ALARMillary...
But apparently we have more than one of these in mid century modern (but not TOO modern) movable planetary devices @NewberryLibrary? #ArmillarySphere #JusticeForPluto #Pluto

Current situation. Relative position of Wanderers was set with the aid of Stellarium. Moon is possibly in the right position. I think I finally figured out how the mondring is supposed to work #astronomy #armillarysphere #celestialsphere #moon

I have become obsessed w getting my hands on a functional #ArmillarySphere. Having hard time finding listings of functional details (sun & moon, adjustable axes, star positions, etc.). Want authentic function, tabletop, ~10"+. Any suggestions? #Astronomy #Astrolabe #ecliptic #meridian #Cosmographia

The Chinese astronomer Zhang Heng in the 2nd century AD developed an armillary sphere and a seismoscope, showing early advancements in understanding both celestial mechanics and terrestrial phenomena. #ZhangHeng #AncientChina #ArmillarySphere

Current situation. Relative position of Wanderers was set with the aid of Stellarium. Moon is not quite in the right position (phase is correct), but i don't have the energy to move the mondring. #astronomy #armillarysphere #celestialsphere

Made this for a good matey, Mini, who asked me to draw her OC.
It took me a long while to finish it, but I'm glad with how it turned out and it's one of my proudest achievements this year. I'm glad I was able to finish it before PC died. 🌌

I think I finally got the mondring (moon ring) right! Saw the 22 day old moon while scraping my car, went back in to check the #armillarysphere and it was correct. #astronomy #celestialsphere #moon

Trying this once more now that I've discovered more #Astronomy folks on here ( @skymaps.bsky.social @skycalpro.bsky.social @allthegalaxies.galaxyzoo.org @emily.space ), any help finding a function #ArmillarySphere would be amazing. Only finding decorative ones I can't tell if they are functional.

I've only trained with the #nocturnal, but the simple visuals and explanations are great and easy to follow. Highly recommend. #astronomy

Current situation on the #armillarysphere w a picture from last night of the near-full (day 13) moon & cloud halo. Had to adjust the moonring (mondring) to get the full phase opposite the local star for the #LunarEclipse tonight. Moon should rise ~7 pm, set around 7 am. #celestialsphere #astronomy
