🔭I loved CalSky🛰️the app to that tells you what you will see if you look up at the sky tonight. 🪐 I waited for someone to recreate it after it went offline but no-one did so I created it myself...💫

Starlink Train predictions: Dev tests passed. Silly fail (fixed now)
It works but I'd like visual confirmation to see if the prediction is working as I think. Reply with a yes if you would like to preview to check if it works. If enough people do, I'll make the staging server available tomorrow!

I’m working on starlink passes at the moment. Code is running. Just finalising the tests on dev.

Hopefully testing completes this evening ready for staging server stage on Friday. Might be live over the weekend. Might not be, we’ll see

My walk at lunchtime earlier

Just finished work, nice view of the moon earlier and getting excited about the ISS passing near Saturn. Just about to set the scope up…
My foggy view of the sky right now…
November 26, 2025 at 5:52 PM
Next up this evening. ISS passes over Europe. A nice long overhead pass for viewers in France and Italy. For viewers in UK, Belgium, Germany and Austria a chance to view ISS occulting Saturn...

Tonight the 32% lit moon is in the constellation Capricornus, moving past Zeta Capricornus and towards Deneb Algedi.
North America and UK there will be good bright space station passes shortly after sunset.
Moon sets at ~21:20

I didn’t do a great job of publicising this one last week, but the updated Gt Red Spot calculation/output is now live. This automation means you are getting the latest GRS position, as well as up to date drift rates if you need it for other apps.

Two hours of The Seven Sisters, yesterday night, using my cat and the Askar 60F. This is a great little scope. It comes pre-flattened, so no moving parts inducing tilt on the imaging train.
Stars are a bit blown out but I wanted to try and bring out the nebula.

Quite excited. Most Christmas’s I give myself a mini project to do. This year I’m going to attach an Astro cam to my old reflector telescope for <£100.
I just purchased a camera sensor for £50 and added some t ring adapters to my Christmas list 😁

One of these images is a close up of Jupiters moon Io taken from space. The other is an incredibly detailed and enhanced image of a loaf of bread taken in my kitchen just now.

If you could see though the rain clouds (snow clouds?) the moon would look like this tonight.
Who has a clear sky?
November 22, 2025 at 11:28 AM
It’s a cold and damp day so I’ve put the bread maker on and lit the fire. Going to spend a couple of hours coding. Now that the Jupiter update is done, I’m going to work on Starlink trains and the history thread on imaging Jupiter.

I’ve been quiet on here for a few days. Lots going on (family member in hospital) so will be quiet for a bit. Normal service will resume shortly…

This year’s Grand Marshall for the University of Alabama’s homecoming parade orbited the Earth for 170 days. I interviewed NASA astronaut, and UA grad, Bob Hines on Alabama Public Radio about his mission aboard the International Space Station.
