Why gift a star map of Cape Town?
Gifting a star map of Cape Town means capturing the magic of a night when austral constellations arch above Table Mountain. Whether for a proposal at Signal Hill or an anniversary at the V&A Waterfront, this map immortalises a unique moment beneath one of the purest skies in the Southern Hemisphere. South Africa, home of the SALT telescope, is a land of astronomy. A gift as grand as the meeting of two oceans.
The sky of Cape Town
At 34° south latitude, Cape Town offers privileged access to the treasures of the austral sky: the Southern Cross, Alpha Centauri, and the Magellanic Clouds. South Africa is home to the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) in Sutherland, and the city is an ideal starting point for stargazing under some of the clearest skies on Earth.
