Coming soon to Starplot -- arrows! ➡️ They'll support two methods: drawing an arrow from one point to another OR drawing an arrow to a target only (e.g. Arcturus in this example) -- the target-only arrows will avoid label collisions too ↗️ ⭐

With Starplot's upcoming satellite trajectory features, you'll also be able to easily determine when a satellite intersects another object and style its marker differently. For example, this plot shows the ISS when it transits the Moon as seen from a specific time and place. 🛰️ 🌔 ✨
