Lyrid meteor shower 2027 in Santiago: the sky above you

The real sky over Santiago, Chile at 22 April 2027, 04:00 local time: 3,167 stars above the horizon, including Arcturus, Rigil Kentaurus, Vega. 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 22° above the horizon over Santiago at that moment — the poster marks it.

The Moon was up over Santiago at that moment: a waning gibbous, 98% lit, 58° above the horizon toward the west — the poster draws it where it really stood.

Brightest named stars up at that moment: Arcturus, Rigil Kentaurus, Vega, Achernar, Hadar, Altair. Every star is a real one from the HYG catalogue, placed with the exact latitude (-33.45°) and longitude (-70.67°) of Santiago. 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.
