Global Observatory Network

🌐 Interactive World Map

This section will display an interactive map showing the locations of all KNC contributors. Each pin represents an active observatory in our network, providing 24/7 global coverage for gravitational wave follow-up observations.

Map integration coming soon with real-time telescope status indicators.
