Almanox answers one question - is tonight worth heading out, and if so, where, when, and how. This guide walks through every part: reading the verdict, planning the Milky Way, lining up a sun or moon shot, the photo maths, and finding truly dark skies.
Almanox uses your location, or add any place by name. Every reading - times, verdict, Milky Way - is computed for exactly where you stand.
Open Tonight for a single 0-100 score that fuses darkness, moon, Milky Way height and cloud into one honest answer.

A page per tab - what each readout means and how to use it.
