Suggestion: Stargazing layer

[rbbot]

Hi,

Could you create a layer that shows the conditions for stargazing - i.e. taking into account light pollution and visibility. This would need to combine:

• sunrise/sunset
• moonrise/moonset/moon phase
• fixed light pollution from human sources (see https://www.lightpollutionmap.info )
• cloud cover
• fog
• aurora forecast (ideally it would be good to be able to see the layer with/without this included, as you may want to observe the aurora)

Algorithms for sun/moon are at: https://github.com/mourner/suncalc
