Better start saving your pennies now because in a few thousand years, your
beloved planisphere will become obsolete and you'll have to buy a new one.
Don't get too familiar with the constellations as well, because in tens of 
thousands of years, they will be unrecognizable because of the proper
motion of all the stars with respect to us.

And the closest stars do move at a different rate than the farthest stars,
which is how we even know they are the closest stars.
