Day-1 Devlog: NASA Orbit Tracker Main Control Flow Established! ☄️
.
Spent like 2 hrs setting up the baseline architecture for my project yesterday night.
.
What I got working:
.
Connected successfully to the live NASA NEO (Near Earth Object) API with code 200.
.
Added dynamic date parsing so it queries exactly what is passing our Earth today.
.
Added custom HTTP error tracking (handling 429 rate limits and server errors professionally (okay maybe not professionally but cleanly 🗿)).
.
Established the base of an interactive terminal selection loop that lets user pick which specific asteroid they want to audit.
.
Pushed everything to my GitHub repository with the commit message “Established Control flow”.
.
.
Today, I’ll build the core physics engine and orbital mechanics calculations next, along with completing the interactive terminal..!!
