Description

Hi all,
Because I'm dealing with many different objects at our observatory (~50/night), the current colormap used in the plot_schedule_airmass can be very confusing. I'm wondering if it's possible to change that colormap (since plot_schedule_airmass only takes a few parameters, none of which deal with the colormap). Thank you!

Research direction

Start at the plot_schedule_airmass entry point and inspect how its current colormap is selected. Check the existing tests around this plotting function, then determine how a caller could configure the colormap without breaking current parameters. Done means the plot's colormap can be changed by the caller and existing behavior remains supported.
