The sky on the night you were born

Pick a date and a place. Sky+ works out the real stars, planets and Moon of that night and makes a picture you can share.

Without a time, the picture shows 10 PM that night. Nothing you type here leaves your phone.

How it works: planets from NASA JPL orbital elements (good from 1900 to 2050), stars from the Hipparcos catalogue, turned to the sky as seen from the place and time you chose. The centre of the circle is straight overhead; the edge is the horizon.
