Primary focus: Available light

Secondary focus: Cool astronomical events (meteor showers, eclipses)

At a glance:

  • Time until sunrise/sunset
  • Sunrise / sunset
  • Length of day
  • Moonrise / moonset
  • Moon phase
  • Meteor shower peak
  • Meteor shower rate
  • Eclipse start/end
  • Eclipse obscuration

Advanced:

  • Civil/Nautical/Astronomical times
  • Noon time
  • Season
  • Super moon
  • Rise / set direction
  • Peak altitude / direction
  • Length of night
  • Meteor shower name
  • Eclipse duration
  • Eclipse magnitude

Mockup:
before-and-after

Task list:

  • Create at a glance view
  • Update "until" text to always say sunrise/sunset
  • Create advanced dialogs (list view, similar style as main astronomy)
  • Remove old field code
  • Remove unused strings
  • Remove unused preferences
  • Replace the astronomy icon with a crescent moon (with a star?)
  • Re-evaluate the astronomy altitude chart - is that easy to understand? is there a better format that supports at a glance viewing (moving that to the advanced dialogs)? what value does it provide?
  • Add the search button
