Below is a finder chart for Neptune in 2014, available in either light-on-dark or dark-on-light color schemes. Click on the finder chart to enlarge it, or click on the PDF link in the bottom-right corner to view it at the highest resolution. The planetarium view shows how the path of Neptune will appear relative to the horizon at your presently selected location. Use the time entry form at the top to show where the horizon will be on any particular day of the year, or the location panel at the top-left of this page to select a different location.

The charts above are based on the DE405 ephemeris computed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Star positions and magnitudes were taken from the Tycho catalogue. The data was reduced by the author and plotted using Pyxplot. A gnomonic projection of the sky has been used; celestial coordinates are indicated in the J2000.0 coordinate system. Related |
