Hello Gabriel Jaimes, Thank you for posting this planisphere for Spanish learners and amateur astronomers. It's really wonderful. Will it mostly work in South America or are their other continents where your planisphere will be accurate?

Clear skies,

Jessica

  Hi Jessica!
  
  The Planisphere will mostly work for a latitude of 17.5 S. If you turn back the inner constellations disk, the planisphere will work for 17.5 N. Moreover, If you would like to adjust it for others latitudes, 45 N or 45S for example, or other ones. We can do it :).
  
  Regards,
  
  Gabriel
