Space science, skywatching, missions and discovery
Approved descriptions
Neon Archive is an independent Canadian space-science website that turns public astronomy data and mission records into practical observing guidance and a browsable source-first archive.
Neon Archive is an independent Canadian space-science project for people who want to explore the sky and the story of spaceflight. Check a location-safe observing forecast, build a guided night-sky route, follow astronomical events, browse NASA imagery and mission records, and read concise research notes linked to primary sources.
Neon Archive brings practical skywatching and a browsable spaceflight archive together in one free website. Visitors can check a seven-night observing outlook for a rounded area, compare cloud and Moon conditions, find planets and constellations with guided tools, and follow upcoming eclipses, meteor showers, and other astronomical events. The archive includes sourced mission and cosmic-object records, selected NASA imagery, a landmark launch index, an exoplanet catalog, spaceflight history, and original notes on topics such as the Moon, exoplanets, and deep-space communication. Each archive record links to an authoritative source and related pages, making it easy to continue exploring. Neon Archive is designed for beginners and curious readers, with observing tools that round location details before forecast requests. The project is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by NASA or another space agency. It is free to use, and optional support is available separately.
