Up to ten targets, one night: each gets its good/marginal/poor windows (darkness × altitude × Moon × clouds, as on the single-target page), then the night is handed out five minutes at a time to whichever target is best — with hysteresis, so you get a few solid blocks of at least 30 minutes, not a flicker. Targets that never win a block are listed with the reason.

Night of Friday, 02 October 2026 · astronomical night 20:33 → 05:47 (9.23 h) · Moon 57% (waning gibbous) · weather: ERA5 history
Faded bands: each target's own windows (green good, amber marginal, pink poor). Dark blue: the schedule. Grey columns: twilight.

targets: names or RA Dec, separated by commas, semicolons or newlines, at most ten. The response carries targets[] (score, verdict, best_window, windows, transit, moon_separation), schedule[] (blocks with target, start/end in UTC and local, hours, mean_quality; target: null is idle time), unscheduled[] with a why, forecast_source, warnings[]. Missing targets → 400 {"error", "code": "targets_missing"}.
