Track All Things Orbiting Earth Daily
The brainchild of James Yoder, a future Electrical and Computer Engineering student at the University of Texas at Austin, the website stuffin.space offers a realtime 3D map of Earth as seen from outer space—and it includes tracking visualizations for everything in orbit, refreshing daily. Yoder takes orbit data from Space-Track.org and pairs it with the satellite.js Javascript library in order to ascertain satellite positions. The site also lets users isolate specific satellites or missions and chart their course over the years. Learn more at Boing Boing and explore it all at stuffin.space.
