A location-specific dashboard for checking aurora conditions, the Moon, visible planets, meteor showers, and ISS passes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-31 issue.

For: Casual skywatchers planning an evening outside
Worth noticing: The page says browser location is rounded to about 10 km before any weather request.

Field notes

The location picker spans cities across North America and Europe, while the dashboard also offers Night, Day, and Red observing modes. Its section descriptions specify a latitude-dependent Kp threshold for aurora viewing and planet positions by direction, altitude, and brightness. The captured page showed sample Moon and planet readings, but the aurora and ISS panels were still loading live data.
