Main interface
Anybody can access the main interface of the site as a visitor (unregistered user).
Here one can see the latest observations, as they are sent to the site, news and some data analyses, among others (see image below).
A quick search can bring observation results that better fit your interests (see wiki section Web interface > Browsing records). It is possible to visualise the site in different languages (Available languages depend on the local portal you are using), and get information on the sun and moon at the given location. Unregistered users see data related to a general location at the country of the local portal they are using. However, registered users will get sun/moon information adapted to their registered location. This includes time of sunrise and sunset, as well as the time of moonrise and moonset, phase of the moon and date.
To see a list of local portals, go to wiki section Various > Local partners.
To see all available languages, go to wiki section Various > Available languages.
