stargazing_forecast
Pack: 7timer · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/7timer/mcp
Astronomy observing forecast from 7Timer! ASTRO — the metrics stargazers and astrophotographers use to decide if tonight is good for observing: cloud cover, atmospheric seeing (steadiness), and sky transparency, at 3-hour resolution out to 72 hours. Each point gets a human-readable label and an observing_quality verdict, plus a best_window summary of the clearest/steadiest hours. Keyless.
