Stargazing from Cologne
Cologne, in Germany, is high enough that summer nights never get fully astronomically dark, but in autumn and winter you get genuine darkness from about 21:30 until dawn.
Common questions
What planets are visible tonight from Cologne?
None of the bright naked-eye planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) rise above 10° tonight from Cologne. That's normal — planet visibility cycles roughly every 1–2 months per planet.
What time does the sun set in Cologne tonight?
Sunset in Cologne tonight is at 21:27. Astronomical twilight (when the sky is fully dark) begins later.
Can I see the ISS from Cologne tonight?
Not tonight — there are no ISS passes above 20° altitude in your viewing window. Passes happen roughly every 90 minutes when the orbit lines up, so check again tomorrow.
