Astronomy
Planet Visibility Calculator
Find the best times to observe Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, or Venus from your location. Enter your latitude and how many days you are from opposition to get a visibility score in degrees.
Fill in the required fields to see your result.
Astronomy
Redshift Velocity Calculator
Compute the recession velocity of a nearby galaxy from its redshift z using v = c·z, where c is the speed of light. Part of the Hubble-Lemaître law — the empirical relation that established the expanding universe.
