Description

Hello,

I am experiencing issues with the APOD and EPIC APIs.

APIs affected:

  • APOD API (/planetary/apod)
  • EPIC API (/EPIC/api/natural)

The requests return errors or empty responses even though the API key is valid.
I tested with both DEMO_KEY and my personal API key.

Could you please check if there is a service outage or recent change?

Thank you.

Research direction

Start by reproducing requests to /planetary/apod and /EPIC/api/natural with DEMO_KEY and a personal API key, recording the exact errors or empty responses. Check the API service status and recent changes affecting these endpoints. Done means the outage or change is identified and the issue records the current status or next action.
