About LuNAC
What LuNAC Is
LuNAC is a moon calendar and modern lunar almanac — a computational tool that presents deterministically calculated astronomical cycles in calendar form. It serves the same functional role as traditional paper almanacs — providing celestial event timing for planning and observational awareness — but built on real-time computation rather than printed tables.
Why LuNAC Exists
LuNAC exists to make precise astronomical observation accessible in calendar form. Traditional almanacs offer approximated data in static print; modern tools often lead with personal interpretation. LuNAC takes a different approach — a lunar calendar and moon calendar built on real-time computation, presenting celestial cycles clearly with full provenance.
Who Builds LuNAC
LuNAC is built by individuals committed to computational integrity and observational honesty. We believe that astronomical truth should be accessible without requiring users to navigate mystical framing or productivity pressure.
Principles
- Deterministic over approximate: Every event is computed directly from astronomical models and validated before display.
- Observable over predictive: LuNAC shows current celestial positions and events from astronomical computation.
- Calm over urgent: LuNAC is organized around natural celestial rhythms and unhurried observation.
