Live orbit · Artemis II · Earth-Moon system
Track Artemis II in real time with Earth-Moon distance, speed, mission phase, and a clean orbit diagram.
Live ISS position, altitude, speed, and visibility status.
Use this map to time visible passes at your site, then cross-check cloud cover and moonlight below.
ISS orbit data: CelesTrak TLE propagation (satellite.js).
Meteor showers, conjunctions, eclipses, and opposition dates with visibility notes.
Visibility labels indicate hemisphere coverage and useful observing windows such as "Best before dawn".

Event visibility catalog: Stellara curated astronomy events database.
Cloud layers, humidity, wind, seeing, transparency, moon phase, and visibility.

Search your observing site and decide quickly: deep-sky session, lunar/planetary session, or wait for better conditions.
Practical note: high humidity can increase haze, strong winds can make tracking unstable, and moonlight can brighten the background sky.
Weather models: Open-Meteo (cloud, wind, humidity, visibility) + 7Timer (seeing, transparency). Astronomy data: AstronomyAPI for body positions, phase imagery, and local star charts, with SunCalc server-side for rise/set, solar noon, day length, and twilight.
