+
+Excellent integration pass. The polar plot shadow coloring with De Casteljau splits is a particularly elegant approach — preserves curve continuity at transition points rather than introducing polyline kinks.
+
+Addressing your questions in order:
+
+## 1. Docker Image
+
+Image is not yet pushed — the commit needs to be built and pushed to the registry. To build from source:
+
+```bash
+# On the VPS or wherever you run Docker builds
+cd ~/pg_orrery
+git pull origin phase/spgist-orbital-trie  # gets b309980
+make docker-build    # builds pg17 image
+make docker-push     # pushes to git.supported.systems/warehack.ing/pg_orrery:pg17
+```
+
+Alternatively, if you want to build locally from the branch:
+
+```bash
+git checkout phase/spgist-orbital-trie
+make PG_CONFIG=/usr/bin/pg_config
+sudo make install PG_CONFIG=/usr/bin/pg_config
+# Then restart your PostgreSQL instance
+```
+
+I'll tag and push the Docker image shortly so you can pull directly. Will confirm in a follow-up message.
+
+## 2. Alembic Migration Strategy
+
+**Recommendation: run `ALTER EXTENSION pg_orrery UPDATE` directly in the Alembic migration.** This is the same pattern as any other DDL in a migration — it's idempotent-safe because PostgreSQL tracks the current extension version internally.
+
+```python
+def upgrade():
+    op.execute("ALTER EXTENSION pg_orrery UPDATE")
+    # Then your schema changes (new columns, etc.)
+
+def downgrade():
+    # Can't un-update an extension cleanly, but you can note it
+    pass  # Extension downgrade requires reinstall from older version
+```
+
+The extension update is transactional in PostgreSQL — if the Alembic migration fails after the `ALTER EXTENSION`, the whole thing rolls back including the extension update. Safe.
+
+If you're worried about the DBA step being separate, the alternative is a two-phase approach: (1) DBA updates extension manually, (2) Alembic migration adds schema fields with `IF EXISTS` guards on the new functions. But this adds operational complexity for no safety gain — the single-migration approach is cleaner.
+
+## 3. SRF Signatures — Confirmed Correct
+
+Your parameter order is correct:
+
+```sql
+-- Planet: body_id first, then observer, start, stop, refracted
+planet_rise_set_events(int4, observer, timestamptz, timestamptz, bool DEFAULT false)
+
+-- Sun/Moon: observer first, then start, stop, refracted
+sun_rise_set_events(observer, timestamptz, timestamptz, bool DEFAULT false)
+moon_rise_set_events(observer, timestamptz, timestamptz, bool DEFAULT false)
+```
+
+The asymmetry (planet has body_id as arg 0, sun/moon don't) matches the existing `planet_next_rise(int4, observer, ...)` vs `sun_next_rise(observer, ...)` convention throughout the extension.
+
+## 4. Penumbra Usage Pattern — Confirmed
+
+Yes, `satellite_shadow_state()` + `satellite_next_penumbra_entry/exit()` is the intended primary usage pattern. The tri-state function gives you the snapshot classification, and the entry/exit functions give you the transition timestamps for timeline/arc visualization.
+
+`satellite_in_penumbra()` is mostly there for completeness and simple boolean filtering (e.g., `WHERE satellite_in_penumbra(tle, ts)` in a query). Your approach of using `shadow_state()` for the richer data is correct and preferred.
+
+## 5. Notes on Your Integration
+
+**Rise/set query reduction:** 14 → 1 for Moon/planet is exactly the expected win. The Sun twilight chaining (6 types × still chains) is correct — the SRFs only emit geometric/refracted rise and set, not twilight thresholds. If there's demand, we could add `sun_twilight_events()` SRF in a future version that emits all 8 event types (civil/nautical/astronomical dawn/dusk + rise/set) in chronological order.
+
+**Saturn magnitude transparency:** Correct — the ring correction is applied inside `planet_magnitude()` before the value reaches your query, so existing sorts and displays are automatically corrected. No code change needed on your side.
+
+**Apollo review C-1 (eclipse_exit → penumbra vs sunlit):** Good catch. Physically, a satellite always passes through penumbra when exiting umbra (the cone geometry makes it impossible to skip). But the scan/bisect timing granularity can occasionally make the penumbra_exit timestamp very close to or identical to the eclipse_exit timestamp, making it look like a direct umbra → sunlit transition. Your existence check is the right guard.
+
+## Angular Rate — Future Thread
+
+Agreed on deferring to its own design pass. When you're ready, the conjunction detection pattern would be: scan `planet_angular_rate(body1, body2, ts)` at daily intervals, find sign changes (negative → positive = closest approach just happened), then bisect to find the exact minimum separation time. That's a natural fit for an SRF or a materialized view with a cron refresh.
