"Atlas of the Heavens: Six Plates" is a notable celestial atlas by the American astronomer Elijah Hinsdale Burritt (1794–1838). Published in the early 19th century, this work is often associated with Burritt's more famous atlas, "The Geography of the Heavens," which was widely used for educational purposes in the United States during that era. "Atlas of the Heavens: Six Plates" consists of a series of detailed star charts that map the positions of stars, constellations, and other celestial objects as they would appear to observers from Earth.

The atlas reflects the astronomical knowledge and cartographic techniques of its time, offering a window into the history of astronomy and the methods used by astronomers to represent the night sky. Each plate in the atlas is dedicated to a specific region of the sky, with careful attention to the accuracy of star positions and the artistic representation of constellation figures. The work of Elijah Hinsdale Burritt was instrumental in popularizing astronomy among the American public and in educational settings, and his atlases served as valuable resources for both amateur and professional astronomers of the period.

"Atlas of the Heavens: Six Plates" is significant not only for its scientific content but also for its historical and cultural value. It exemplifies the early efforts to democratize knowledge of the heavens and to provide tools for the systematic study of the stars. The atlas is a testament to Burritt's dedication to education and his contribution to the field of astronomy, and it remains a subject of interest for historians of science and collectors of astronomical works.
