That is called "stealing" another's work.
SEND N2YO AN EMAIL - and ask him for what you would like. What is wrong with doing that?
I had sent him a small donation earlier this year. And he created a CUSTOM WIDGET for me - just listing my favorite five satellites.
He is approachable. He answers polite email messages. He is a ham. He SHOULD be considered a valuable resource/reference person for us ... and NOT someone whose code should be snagged and edited to our whims.
UNLESS, of course, he plainly states that his works are free to the world, for us to edit however we want with them. But last time I looked, that was not the case.

I am not doing anything with it right now anyway. I can't get it to work on the blog. The layers are all messed up and I don't really have time to mess with it.
I wouldn't say I am "editing it to my whim," but after some thought I do agree an email to him wouldn't hurt - if I even decide I want to put it on my blog.

If you had bothered to read my ENTIRE email, you would've seen that I made these same points regarding copyrights and recommended that the party go to both the Google and N2YO websites and make certain that was acceptable.
As it turns out, there are a number of widgets on the N2YO website that are available and as you state, it's highly likely that N2YO will set you up with exactly what you are looking for. All you have to do is ask!

... All you have to do is ask!
The most simple and direct thing to do in many aspects of life: Just ask!
And, if a reasonable and respectful request, you usually get what you want.
Just my opinion, of course. I may be wrong.
