Baby Steps with My Night Sky Pi (Feb Update)

Progress has been slow, but Night Sky Pi is moving again. The capture loop is running, exposure is adjusted between frames, and images are taken from sunset to sunrise. That is fine for now, although the first and last frames of the night are not very useful. The plan is to refine the window so capture starts after twilight and stops before dawn light washes everything out.

There is no on device processing yet and nothing is uploaded elsewhere. That is deliberate at this stage. The next step is to package observations cleanly and send them off the device, then tackle smarter exposure calculations.

Latest code is on GitHub.

Thanks for reading. If you have a simple rule for defining night phases in code that works well at higher latitudes, share it so others can try it too.
