Field notes
The interface can track targets, toggle labels, adjust telescope and site settings, and step through UTC time at several rates; “Best light” and daylight controls are also visible. Destinations include eight lunar cameras, a Jezero camera, Saturn orbit, Mars orbit, and Sun–Earth L2. Exported PNGs can omit controls or labels, with source credits included in file metadata. The page notes that distances, body sizes, and the Moon’s offset are illustrative.
