The Sky Above Kabosu (Shiba Inu) at the Moment of Death

Pet · 2005–2024 · Time recorded

The record

• Date of death: 2024-05-24
• Time of death (local): 07:50 (Time recorded) — Her owner, Atsuko Sato, wrote in her own blog post: "At 7:50 a.m. she fell into a deep sleep" — she died quietly at home in Sakura, Chiba.
• Place: Sakura, Chiba, Japan
• UTC: 2024-05-23T22:50Z

The sky at that moment

• Zenith (the point directly overhead): RA 4.44°, Dec 35.59°

Star closest to the zenith

Computed with the same standard astronomy as our free calculator: the recorded time and place give the local sidereal time, which fixes the zenith; the closest star by angular distance inside a ±15° declination band of the real catalog is selected. What is shown here is the purely astronomical result — the nearest star to the zenith.

• Catalog ID: HIP 1492
• Constellation: Andromeda
• Magnitude: 7.73
• Distance (light-years): 1012.9
• Angular distance from zenith (degrees): 0.4365°

Brightest stars in that sky

The brightest real stars (catalog IDs from the HYG star catalog — mostly Hipparcos/HIP numbers) that were above 10° altitude at that same moment.

• HIP 91262 — Lyra, Magnitude 0.03 (24.5°)
• HIP 24608 — Auriga, Magnitude 0.08 (34.9°)
• HIP 97649 — Aquila, Magnitude 0.76 (23.7°)
• HIP 21421 — Taurus, Magnitude 0.87 (30.3°)
• HYG 118360 — Auriga, Magnitude 0.96 (34.9°)

宠物 · 2005–2024 · 时刻有记录

记录

• 离世日期: 2024-05-24
• 离世时刻(当地): 07:50 (时刻有记录) — 主人佐藤敦子在博客中亲笔写道:「上午 7 时 50 分,她沉沉睡去」——于千叶县佐仓市家中安详离世。
• 地点: 千叶县佐仓市, 日本
• 世界时(UTC): 2024-05-23T22:50Z

那一刻的星空

• 天顶(正头顶的那一点): RA 4.44°, Dec 35.59°

离天顶最近的星

与站内免费计算器同一套标准天文算法:由记录的时刻与地点推出当地恒星时,得到天顶坐标,再取真实星表里赤纬 ±15° 带内球面角距最小的星。这里给出的是「离天顶最近」这一纯天文结果。

• 星表编号: HIP 1492
• 星座: 仙女座
• 星等: 7.73
• 距离(光年): 1012.9
• 与天顶的角距(度): 0.4365°

那一刻天空中最亮的星

同一时刻位于地平线 10° 以上、星等最亮的前几颗真实恒星(HYG 星表编号,多为 Hipparcos/HIP 编号)。

• HIP 91262 — 天琴座, 星等 0.03 (24.5°)
• HIP 24608 — 御夫座, 星等 0.08 (34.9°)
• HIP 97649 — 天鹰座, 星等 0.76 (23.7°)
• HIP 21421 — 金牛座, 星等 0.87 (30.3°)
• HYG 118360 — 御夫座, 星等 0.96 (34.9°)
