Planetarium

This online planetarium allows to compute the coordinates of planets, comets and asteroids and visualize them in the sky with respect to stars and constellations.

• Select the Solar System object from the list of available objects
• Add other objects using the "Add" button (useful feature when visualizing close conjunctions between objects)
• Choose the date and time for which you want to compute the position
• Choose your geographical location in order to see the precise position of the objects with respect to the horizon and accurate times for raise, transit and set
• Pan the sky chart by dragging it, zoom in or out using the mose wheel or the slider
• Take screenshots using the 'p' key (image opens in a popup window)
