Perseid meteor shower 2027 in Auckland: the sky above you

The real sky over Auckland, New Zealand at 13 August 2027, 03:00 local time: 3,367 stars above the horizon, including Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Rigel. This is the peak night of the Perseids, the best-loved meteor shower of the northern summer. Free to view, printable as an A3 star chart.

The Moon was up over Auckland at that moment: a waxing gibbous, 81% lit, 14° above the horizon toward the south-west — the poster draws it where it really stood.

Brightest named stars up at that moment: Canopus, Rigil Kentaurus, Rigel, Achernar, Hadar, Altair. Every star is a real one from the HYG catalogue, placed with the exact latitude (-36.85°) and longitude (174.76°) of Auckland. North is up and east is on the left, as when you look up.

Make it an A3 poster — $4.99

Printing it at home? There is a second paper: the same sky as ink on white. A full-bleed night A3 bands on a home printer and drinks a cartridge; the ink one does not. Same price, pick either on the next page.
