Day 1 - First live NASA data in AstroLens

Set up the full project from scratch - Vite, React, Tailwind, NASA API. First attempt had a broken folder structure, debugged it, restarted clean.

Within a few hours, got live NASA APOD data rendering in the browser.

The image today is Thor’s Helmet Nebula - NGC 2359, 15,000 light years away.

Tomorrow: building the full multi-page dashboard with asteroids, space weather, and JWST gallery.
