Planets tonight

How high the Moon and the five naked-eye planets stand above your horizon over the next 24 hours. Tell me where you are, then wind the site clock.

Where you are51.5° N, 0.0° E (Greenwich, London, until you set your own)

I start the chart at the site clock’s time on the left and run it for 24 hours. Pale bands are daylight and twilight. Hours are in your device’s time zone. Drag the chart sideways, or press the arrow keys on it, to move time. Once you set a place, it is remembered on this device and the address bar carries it, rounded to half a degree, so a copied link shows the same sky. It is not sent anywhere. I would not know what to do with it. Computed with Astronomy Engine.

Altitudes include the bending of light by the atmosphere near the horizon. Rise and set times assume a flat horizon at sea level. I can’t see your neighbour’s roof from here. A lower magnitude number means a brighter object; anything below about 1 is easy to spot once the sky is dark.
