AstroInfo is a plugin that displays: o Clear Sky Clock information for the next one or two evenings depending on when it is invoked and the data presented by the o Clear Sky Clock webpage. An "evening" consists of the time fram starting between 7PM and midnight and ending at 3AM. (Note to the 60 of you who might care: Last week, I announced a Cleark Sky Clock plugin. The ClearSkyClock plugin is now depracated and replaced by the AstroInfo plugin.)
o Current moon data consisting of the percentage full the moon is and when it is scheduled to set next. o Listing of any Iridium flares scheduled for the next 24 hours. You can find a download page for the plugin here: http://www.wideopenwest.com/~jesslex/plugins/astroinfo_plugin.html Any comments can be directed to this thread or via private message. Thanks, Mitch --- More Information About Clear Sky Clocks and Iridium Flares -- Clear Sky Clocks are used by amateur astronomers to see the forecasts related to key weather phenomenon for stargazing: cloud cover, transparency, and seeing. More information about what a Clear Sky Clock is can be found at: http://cleardarksky.com/csk/index.html. Iridium flares occur when the sun reflects off satellites that are used for the Iridium satellite phone service. They are pretty nifty and it's worth trying to catch one sometime.
