Astraflare: Aurora Forecast

Astraflare turns live space-weather data into a plain answer to one question: what's worth looking up for tonight? It fuses real-time feeds from NOAA SWPC, NASA DONKI, NASA Helioviewer, USNO, CelesTrak, the Minor Planet Center and Open-Meteo with on-device astronomy — so aurora odds, clear-sky windows, solar flares, eclipse paths, satellite passes and conjunction alerts all live in one clean app. Built for aurora chasers, astrophotographers and casual sky-watchers. AURORA • Live Kp index and 3-day forecast • OVATION aurora-oval map with cloud-cover overlay • Tonight's-window card: a plain-English verdict combining twilight, Kp, moon, clouds and latitude • Bortle light-pollution hint for your spot • Photography assistant with camera recipes (ISO, shutter, aperture) tuned to conditions and a "leave by" countdown SOLAR • Live SDO imagery (AIA 171, AIA 304, HMI) and SOHO LASCO C2/C3 coronagraphs • X-ray flux chart, flare probability, recent-flares log • Solar wind — speed, density, Bz — on 12 h / 24 h / 7 d ranges • Sunspot number, F10.7, Solar Cycle 25 progress • Coronal-hole tracker and high-speed-stream events • CME tracking with a 3-D propagation orrery • NOAA R / S / G space-weather scales at a glance SKY • Moon phase, illumination, rise / set / transit • Civil, nautical and astronomical twilight windows • Planets tonight — rise / set, altitude, magnitude • Comets tonight from Minor Planet Center orbital elements • Visible satellite passes (ISS, Starlink and more) — computed on-device via SGP4, no server round-trip EVENTS • Solar and lunar eclipses through 2100 with local circumstances and path rendering • Meteor-shower calendar from IMO data — peak dates, ZHR, radiant altitude • Planetary conjunctions and planet parades • 30-day geomagnetic-storm history ALERTS • Live SWPC bulletins categorised by type (geomagnetic, flare, radiation, radio blackout) • Configurable push notifications — Kp threshold, minimum flare class, conjunction separation angle, planet-parade size, eclipses visible from your location • Background polling plus server-side push so you don't miss a short-notice event THE LITTLE THINGS • Share Tonight — one-tap 1080 × 1350 portrait card of your best sky event • Every on-screen term has an info button linking to a built-in glossary — nothing stays jargon • UTC or local time, your choice • iPhone-only, cached data works offline, no account required Astraflare is made independently by Eldwyn Labs.
