Observation Settings

Or select it on the map:
This Earth map fragment is intended to illustrate celestial motion across the sky, emphasizing both bearing and elevational perspectives. The map's center point corresponds to the transit, showcasing celestial objects at their highest point, while elevation gradually decreases towards the map edges. This dynamic representation offers insights into the changing positions of celestial bodies with a focus on their bearing and elevational trajectories.

Sky Map

Celectial bearing and elevation at 21:38
This sky map is a dynamic visualization that displays the real-time positions of comets in the night sky. It allows you to interactively explore their locations as they move along their orbits. By adjusting the view, you can track comet positions relative to the stars and see how their arrangement changes over time.
