PLEASE CHOOSE THE RIGHT REGION
Calculated for New York City (40.7128° N, 74.0060° W), with the closest match in the New York metropolitan area and nearby Northeast. The guide includes regional comparisons for Boston, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Charleston and Miami. Charts are orientation guides farther away, especially in the Southeast and Florida. This is not an exact local almanac for every East Coast city or the entire United States. Times follow Eastern Standard and Daylight Time, including the 2027 clock changes.

DESIGNED FOR PRINT AND DIGITAL USE
Print on US Letter at actual size (100%), one page per sheet. Charts are approximately 6.1 inches across, with 10.5-point star labels. Charts and graph line styles support black-and-white printing; color is recommended for photographs. Calendar details and footnotes use smaller type. The calendar uses Monday-first weeks and a 24-hour clock. You can also read it in a PDF reader.
ACCURACY AND SCOPE
Star positions, lunar phases, solar times and planet graphs have been checked against star catalogs and independent calculations. Charts apply to their stated date, time and New York location; the Moon and planets are shown separately from the star charts. Planet curves use five-minute steps, so listed maxima are approximate. Real horizons, weather and light pollution affect what you see. Astronomical photographs show more detail than the unaided eye. Meteor shower dates are approximate observing windows, not guaranteed peak times or rates.
