Frequently Asked Questions
Cosmos Pulse uses curated astronomical event schedules and client-side astronomical algorithms, automatically converting target dates into your local browser timezone.
No. Mission Control modes and sky visuals use client-side astronomical approximations and illustrative space-weather simulations rather than live telemetry or real-time sensor streams.
The backyard sky score is an observational guide calculated from lunar illumination and phase geometry. It does not incorporate real-time meteorological cloud cover or local weather conditions.
Yes. Once loaded, event countdowns, local timezone calculations, and the interactive night-sky simulator run entirely in your browser's memory without network calls.
Yes. Cosmos Pulse is completely free with no registration, no account, and no ads.
