Venus—currently shining in the morning sky—produces patterns that can only be revealed by plotting data over many thousands of years.
Beta The Interactive Night Sky Map simulates the sky above Aasiaat on a date of your choice. Use it to locate a planet, the Moon, or the Sun and track their movements across the sky. The map also shows the phases of the Moon, and all solar and lunar eclipses. Need some help?
