Rozhen Observation Calendar

Which nights are best for a target over the coming weeks. The astronomy mark (darkness × altitude × Moon) is computed for every night; the weather and the overall mark exist only where Open-Meteo has a forecast (the next four days) or ERA5 history (past nights) — the rest is honestly blank.

Best nights for Great Orion Nebula: 01-24 (89), 01-25 (89), 01-26 (89), 01-27 (89), 01-28 (89) — by astronomy; check the weather when the night is within four days.
