With Starplot's upcoming satellite trajectory features, you'll also be able to easily determine when a satellite intersects another object and style its marker differently. For example, this plot shows the ISS when it transits the Moon as seen from a specific time and place. 🛰️ 🌔 ✨

Coming soon to Starplot -- arrows! ➡️ They'll support two methods: drawing an arrow from one point to another OR drawing an arrow to a target only (e.g. Arcturus in this example) -- the target-only arrows will avoid label collisions too ↗️ ⭐

La comète C/2025 A6 Lemon depuis l'Université Paris-Saclay et le plateau de Saclay à Orsay. A l'horizon: le LUMEN et le viaduc de la ligne 18. Et dans le ciel, la belle comète !

Gaia’s latest 3D map reveals over 44 million stars in our Milky Way glowing nurseries up to 4,000 light-years away where new stars are born. A breathtaking cosmic vista of our galaxy’s heartbeat.
