Hey DhruvinD,
Cool lil site. I like the vibe you got going there. I kinda wanted to grab the astroids themselves, but I guess it makes sense to have not implemented that. Feels a bit fast for something that I think was said to be real-time but overall the thing works so nice works.

This needs changes before we can consider it shipped. Review the Shipwright feedback, make updates, then ship again.

Hey there!
It seem's this isn't working as I don't see any asteroids in the table therefore cannot choose one. Please fix this and reship.
Dm @Rohan for any questions : D

This 3D space tracking website project was created to visualize real-time astronomical data and showcase live asteroids orbiting our planet using interactive web technology.

The main 3D canvas introduces a custom-rendered Earth suspended in deep space, letting visitors tilt, rotate, and zoom around the orbital plane in real time.

The data section connects directly to NASA’s Near Earth Object Web Service (NeoWS) API, dynamically pulling today’s live space telemetry into an interactive table.

The detail feature allows users to click on any active asteroid in the list to reveal its real-world physical metrics, including its estimated diameter, relative velocity, and closest distance of approach to Earth.

The underlying build relies on Three.js for smooth 3D graphic rendering, Vite for fast asset bundling and relative texture imports, and a custom GitHub Pages setup with a clean CSS overlay to keep the space interface modern, responsive, and easy to navigate.

UPLOADING THIS ON GITHUB WAS A BIG CHAOS. TOOK A LOT DEBUGGING AND WRESTLING.

WORKING ON AN ASTEROID RADAR WHICH RECIEVES ITS DATA FROM A NASA API- NASA NeoWS API. I FORGOT TO LIMK MY HACKATIME AND LOST MY PROGRESS OF 1 HOUR. :( SAD MAN!
