Lyrid meteor shower 2027 in Palermo: the sky above you
The real sky over Palermo, Italy at 22 April 2027, 04:00 local time: 2,970 stars above the horizon, including Arcturus, Vega, Altair. This is the peak night of the Lyrids, one of the oldest recorded meteor showers. Free to view, printable as an A3 star chart.
The Lyrids radiant is 75° above the horizon over Palermo at that moment — the poster marks it.
The Moon was up over Palermo at that moment: a waning gibbous, 98% lit, 24° above the horizon toward the south-west — the poster draws it where it really stood.
Brightest named stars up at that moment: Arcturus, Vega, Altair, Spica, Antares, Deneb. Every star is a real one from the HYG catalogue, placed with the exact latitude (38.12°) and longitude (13.36°) of Palermo. 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.
