Represent synodic sites

and, for the HF4 map, other features that depend on the solar season (e.g. the Venus flyby)

Is this actually useful? The flyby is, for sure, but synodic sites seem to all just be landing destinations.

If it's just the Venus flyby I can create a special-case map node and a fly-by toggle which excludes it (and any edges connecting to it) from the data passed to the dystra code. Or does it exist but not give a bonus off-season?

hm, yeah, probably just the Venus flyby.

I could imagine taking into account added sunspot radiation during whichever bit of the cycle it is that increases the likelihood of radiation damage, but that's probably not so useful.

i... think you can't fly through that node during not-blue season
