Tonight's sky for a place

Place name to a usable observing plan in three keyless GETs.

  1. Resolve the place name to coordinates and an IANA timezone.
  2. One-call whole-sky snapshot for that place, right now.
  3. The genuinely dark, moonless window per night, ranked.
What you'll need to have ready
  • place: City or "City,CC" with an ISO country code, e.g. "Lisbon,PT".
  • nights: How many nights of dark window to rank (1-62).
