Skylive

TL;DR

A notification system that pings you when cool stuff happens in the sky so you don't have to be a professional astronomer to see a meteor shower.

Who is this actually for?

Amateur stargazers and night-sky photographers who are tired of missing eclipses because they forgot to check a calendar.

The Good

  • Automates the tedious task of tracking celestial coordinates and event timings.
  • Location-specific alerts mean you won't get hyped for an event that isn't visible from your backyard.

The Catch (Potential Downsides)

It is essentially a wrapper for astronomical data; if their upstream API goes down or changes its pricing, this tool is toast. Also, cloud cover doesn't care about your notifications.
