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: 04-05 (5), 04-06 (4), 04-07 (3), 04-08 (3), 04-09 (2) — by astronomy; check the weather when the night is within four days.
