Astronomers often need to use standard and local sidereal time which is done in the app; but more importantly for record keeping, they also need Julian and Modified Julian Dates. The app does not show JD or MJD and really needs to do this to be useful and bumped from three to five stars. Having to go to settings for time (which is not self explanatory) in order to get the JD and MJD is a pain. Just display both under the LST.
