Astronomy events do not show in new year 2007
Hi,
I just created new calendar to be used by our Astronomical Society website, and noticed that I can add Astronomical events ex: moon phases, Winter Solstice, etc.

I decided to include those, but somehow those events do not appear in the year 2007 calendar. They appear only for 2006. What could be wrong? Thanks in advance for any help.

I have the same problem. Actually, nothing shows up, ever, after Dec 31, 2006. I went all the way up to about 2013 moon phases.

SUPPORT - please fix this. I am a vampire. I need to know these things.

Well it's been a month, and there are still no solstices or equinoxes. Is anyone working on those?

The provider we were getting that data from could only supply Moon Phases. Have a good source to recommend?

There are a lot of general resources like that out there, but that Farmer's Almanac site provides something that is very human-friendly but not good for importing into a database.

What we need is a resource that essentially provides a table of dates and the event name so that we can parse it and insert it into our internal event tables.

The almanac site would require a person to read each block of text and key in the data manually. Very time consuming and not too reliable.
