NASS is pleased to offer an astrolabe in the tradition of Chaucer, following his manuscript of 1390.  The astrolabe is 7 inches (180mm) in diameter with the Climate Plate tailored to your latitude.

This working astrolabe is in the English tradition of Chaucer during the period 1326-1400 and will be constructed specifically for your latitude. Although the astrolabe is a medieval instrument, this one has been updated for the precession of the equinox for modern day use. The astrolabe is 3D-printed using PLA plastic.
