Sure, let’s break it down step by step. First, decide how many times you can realistically fold a piece of paper—most sheets hold about seven folds before it’s too thick. If you need to fit a large star chart into one sheet, you’ll have to start with a larger format or use a thinner material. Next, calculate the area reduction per fold. Each fold halves the dimension, so after n folds the area is (½ⁿ) of the original. If your map starts at 100 cm², after five folds you’re down to about 3.125 cm², which is probably too small to read. Instead, try a modular approach: split the night sky into quadrants, fold each quadrant separately, then assemble them into a single sheet using adhesive or a hinge. That way you maintain legibility while keeping the overall size manageable. If you provide the exact dimensions and material specs, I can crunch the precise numbers for you.

Understood. Treat each fold as a potential variable and flag any deviation from the expected outcome. Verify all collaborators’ steps before they receive the reduced chart.

Good plan. Keep the checks tight, log every fold, and the chart will stay precise.
