- astro_dark_windowThe genuinely dark, moonless observing window for a night: astronomical night intersected with the Moon being down, ranked across up to 62 nights with a trend. The right tool for "when should I starg…
- astro_eclipsesSolar and lunar eclipses: the next or previous from a date, or all in a range, with type, magnitude, obscuration, Saros series and global geometry. With a location it adds local circumstances, contac…
- astro_find_placeResolve a place name to coordinates, region, country, IANA timezone and a stable place_id, or reverse-look-up the nearest places to a lat/lon. Results are GeoNames data (CC BY 4.0); the response carr…
- astro_moonThe Moon at an instant or as a daily series: phase name and angle, illuminated fraction, distance, apparent size, libration, bright limb, and the next quarter phases. A location adds rise/set and alt…
- astro_moon_phasesEvery new moon, quarter and full moon in a window (or the next few from a date): each with its exact instant, distance, apparent size, supermoon classification under both competing definitions, tradi…
- astro_planet_boardAll eight planets in one call for a date and optional location: constellation, magnitude, apparent size, elongation from the Sun, morning or evening sky, retrograde state with the next station, rise/…
- astro_planet_eventsThe apparition cycle of the inferior planets as dated events: inferior and superior conjunctions, greatest eastern and western elongations, peak brightness (a Venus-only event: Mercury's brightness p…
- astro_positionsExact positions for up to 20 bodies at an instant or over a time grid: right ascension and declination in both J2000 and of-date frames, ecliptic longitude and latitude, distance, and, with a locatio…
- astro_rise_setRise, upper transit, set and lower transit for one body at one location, with an explicit status at extreme latitudes (circumpolar, never rises) instead of missing values. Accepts fixed radec targets…
- astro_sky_todayOne-call snapshot of the whole sky for a place and moment: moon phase and illumination, which planets are up and worth looking at, the next eclipse, and (with a location) sun times. Reach for this fi…
- astro_sunThe complete solar day for one location: sunrise, sunset, solar noon, day length, civil, nautical and astronomical twilight boundaries, and explicit polar day/night status at high latitudes. Location…
