SkyLep Planetarium

See what is visible tonight and follow the most interesting events above Earth.

The SkyLep Planetarium combines a sky map for your location with satellite-pass information, solar-eclipse forecasts and the latest aurora data.

From the game to the real sky

Managed to create Saturn? The Planetarium will help you check whether it is visible from your balcony tonight, which direction to look and what time to search for it in the sky.

Choose your location, date and time, and the Planetarium will show the sky from the place where you want to observe. This makes it easier to move from an object created in the game to the real view above your horizon.

Plan an observation in one place

The Planetarium connects a world map with the sky above your selected location. You can check both the objects visible from your area and events that can only be seen from a specific visibility path.

Information about passes, satellite positions, eclipses and aurora activity helps you plan an observation in advance. Instead of guessing where to look, you get a clear time, direction, location and an indication of your chances of seeing the event.

Planetarium features

Use these views before you step outside or while planning your next observation.

Sky map for your location

Set your location, date and time to receive a sky view matched to the place where you want to observe. The map helps you identify directions, altitude above the horizon and the position of the most important objects.

What is visible tonight

Get a simple list of planets, the Moon and bright stars visible at your chosen time. The Planetarium suggests what to look for and which object is the best place to begin.

ISS passes across the Sun and Moon

Find the places and times when the International Space Station may cross the face of the Sun or Moon. You can see the visibility path and observing conditions for a selected location. Observe the Sun only with a certified solar filter.

Current satellite positions

Check the current position of every supported satellite on a world map, then switch to the view of your own sky to see its direction and altitude above the horizon.

The next solar eclipse

Find out when the next solar eclipse will occur, where it will be visible and how it will unfold from a selected location. The Planetarium helps you plan an observation and check whether the event can be seen from your area.

Aurora visibility map

Find the latest information about the aurora's reach and intensity. The map shows which areas may see it, while the conditions overview helps you decide whether the aurora could be visible from your location and when it is worth stepping outside.

Play and explore the real sky

Every object you create in Planetki can become the start of a real observation. Play a round, choose a planet or the Moon from the Atlas, and then use the Planetarium to find out when and where to look above your area.

By combining a world map, satellite data and a local sky view, you can prepare for a quick look upwards or for a carefully planned observation of a larger event.
