Figure 1 is a whole sky star chart of Yanqing, Beijing at 20:30 tonight (UTC+8) with the limit magnitude = (m = magnitude). Four stars (about - ) and one planet (brighter than ) are missing in this chart. In the chart, the distance from the centre is in proportion to zenith distance

(1) Draw a cross (X) on the location of each missing star and mark “T” on the chart, and draw a cross (X) on the location of the missing planet and mark “P” on the chart. [20 т.]
(2) Please mark the orientation of the star chart with “N” “E” “S” “W” at the edge of the star chart. [5 т.]
(3) On the chart, the celestial equator passes through many constellations. Please write down the name of any five of these constellations (IAU codes). [10 т.]
(4) Using the star chart, estimate the altitude of Aldebaran (α Tau), to the nearest degree. [5 т.]
