How it works
Five steps, and only the first one asks anything of you. The rest is astronomy, not decoration.
Pick a date, a time, a place
The exact moment — not "sometime that spring." A night, an hour, a city.
Most of what people remember about a night is when and where it happened, not what the sky looked like — so that’s the only input this asks for. No mood boards, no colour pickers.
It draws the real sky
The actual star field for that instant and that spot on Earth, and the moon’s actual phase and position — not a stock photo of a sky.
The star positions come from a real catalogue, projected through the same spherical astronomy that planetariums use: date to Julian day, to sidereal time, to each star’s altitude and azimuth for that exact place. The moon’s phase and position are computed the same way, not looked up from a generic phase icon. Two people who were in different cities on the same night get two different, both-true skies.
Choose what it becomes
A free share card, a print-ready poster, or a full site with chapters — same computed sky underneath every version.
The generator is free and keeps no account: pick a moment, get a watermarked card, done. A poster is the same sky as a print-ready PDF. A keepsake is a real site — ourskies.love/personal/yours — with room for more than one night.
Add chapters, if you’re building a site
Presets for the moments people actually have — the night you met, a proposal, a birthday that updates its own year — or a blank one for anything else.
Some chapters recur (an anniversary should read "4th," not "2026," forever) and some are fixed to one night. The catalogue knows the difference for each preset, so setting one up is picking from a list, not filling in seven fields.
It goes live
A poster downloads as a PDF. A keepsake is a page at a real address, shared however you’d share anything else.
No app to install and, by default, no account to make — an unguessable link is the whole access model, because the person you send this to is opening a WhatsApp message, not signing up for a service.
