Twilight map with time slider


Okay, here's a weird one, an NGA Rocket Launching notice for the Indian Ocean. ...

And now the NOTAM and NGA areas really have been combined.

Kind of depends on exactly where in the hazard zone, but basically ground level should be dark.
Up high through peak heating etc. could have light though.
(further West, earlier in the day, and at altitude so the horizon is lower)
