Eta Aquariid meteor shower 2027 in Newcastle upon Tyne: the sky above you
The real sky over Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom at 6 May 2027, 04:00 local time: 2,901 stars above the horizon, including Arcturus, Vega, Capella. This is the peak night of the Eta Aquariids, Halley's Comet's spring shower and a southern-sky favourite. Free to view, printable as an A3 star chart.
The Eta Aquariids radiant is 10° above the horizon over Newcastle upon Tyne at that moment — the poster marks it.
The Moon was below the horizon over Newcastle upon Tyne at that moment — a new moon, 0% lit — so it leaves the sky to the stars, and the poster shows it the way the night really was.
Brightest named stars up at that moment: Arcturus, Vega, Capella, Altair, Antares, Deneb. Every star is a real one from the HYG catalogue, placed with the exact latitude (54.97°) and longitude (-1.61°) of Newcastle upon Tyne. North is up and east is on the left, as when you look up.
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.
Preview free, one-off payment, no account. Change the place and the line of text on the poster page, or see which moment to pick for a birth, a wedding or an anniversary.
