Retrograde tracker

Which planet is retrograde right now, at what degree, and when it turns direct. Station dates with times. No account.

Times shown in
The page opens in UTC because the server does not know where you are. Pick your own zone and every row is recomputed for it; the choice is remembered.

Turns retrograde: the planet starts to appear to move backwards. Turns direct: it moves forwards again. All times are in UTC.

Retrograde motion is apparent, not actual: as Earth overtakes a planet in its faster orbit, the planet appears to move backwards against the stars for a while. This page states dates, times and degrees, and nothing else. A station date says nothing about anyone's week, and it is not pretended otherwise here.
