Satellite Tracker - Stardance

Ship #1

@sanjaybinayak778 on Satellite Tracker · 28 days ago

I made a website to track Satellites by their norad IDs using python to fetch TLE by given Norad id or Id inputted by user from space-track.org, then server.js to dump it into JSON format and then my main.js file calculates it's position and animates it.

most challenging part was to animate earth and satellites ( then i remembered i can use cesium's example code as reference, I really suck at making UI). also I hat a hard time figuring out how can i take user input and give it to py file ( but it turned out to be simpler than i imagined)

# how to use it

=> you can either see location and trajectory of satellite that are already present.
OR
=> you can search any satellite by entering their norad id (google it) in given box.

(you ca send me suggestions to add new features or wait for my next update)

I created track satellite function where user can enter and track their satellite, also i added some more satellite as preview. ( I had a hard time to figure out how can i norad entered by user but it turned out to be simpler than i expected)

hello coders! I Tracked ISS and predicted it’s trajectory using space-track.org to fetch it’s TLE in python and calculated it’s coordinates and trajectory using satellite.js and animated it in my web page using cisium.js ( It took me more than 4 hours but my hackatime was not working although I tried to resolve this problem i hope it works)
