Stellarium for Meade County
A full-featured planetarium running right in your browser. Pre-centered on Brandenburg KY with realistic sky rendering — see what stars, planets, deep-sky objects, and constellations are above the horizon at any moment, past or future.
Self-hosted · no third-party dependency
