The interactive chart below shows the times when the planets rise and set over the course of 2012 as seen from a latitude of 50°N. Each planet is represented by a trace of a different colour which can be displayed or hidden using the buttons at the top. Solid lines show the times when planets rise; dotted lines when they set. Also shown, with a thick black line, are the times when the Sun rises and sets. Various thinner black lines indicate the progress of twilight after sunset and before sunrise. These charts were produced using PyXPlot.
