Skystral

Know what is worth looking for tonight—and find it in the sky. Skystral turns your location and time into a practical stargazing guide. Check visible planets, the Moon, best viewing times and noteworthy events; browse planets, constellations, galaxies, nebulae, star clusters and comets; then open a target for direction, timing and observing advice. TONIGHT, MADE PERSONAL • Tonight at a glance – See sunset and sunrise, Moon phase and illumination, visible planets, dark-sky conditions and noteworthy events for your chosen location. • Personalized targets – Discover what is visible now and later tonight, ranked by darkness, altitude and the equipment you have. FIND IT IN THE SKY • Guided Sky View – Search for planets, constellations, comets and deep-sky objects. Choose a target, move to its best observing time and follow clear direction guidance. • Sky View on any phone – Point your phone when motion sensors are available, or drag manually. Choose a city or enter coordinates when you prefer not to use GPS. • Optional camera beta – Place the live rear-camera view behind the sky map to orient with your surroundings. Camera images stay on your device and microphone access is not requested. EXPLORE SPACE AND TIME • Interactive 3D solar system – Fly to the Sun, Moon and planets, compare real-size bodies and watch the system move through time. • Stars and constellations – Identify bright stars and explore constellation lines and names in a clean 3D sky. • Time travel – Choose any date or scrub through the hours to see how the sky changes. PLAN THE NEXT ECLIPSE • Eclipse Companion – Plan the 2 August 2027 total solar eclipse for your location, with local phases, coverage, viewing direction, Sun altitude, a Sky View preview, 3D alignment and a calendar reminder. Protect your eyes: use certified solar viewing protection throughout every partial phase. Skystral provides planning guidance, not protective equipment. Skystral is made for curious stargazers, families, teachers and anyone who wants to understand what is happening above them. No account, no sign-in and no ads.
