The Current Sky

This page works out where the sun, the moon, the planets and the brighter stars are from wherever you are, then draws them and says it in words, for now, for any minute of any day, and across the year.

Choose a place

The sky is worked out to two decimal places of latitude and longitude, about a kilometre. The place you ask for is not stored, except as the server's access log records every address it is asked for.
