An interactive astronomy and orbital explorer for stars, planets, satellites, aircraft, vessels, constellations, and deep-sky objects.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The explorer organizes stars, deep-sky objects, satellites, aircraft, vessels, planets, and constellation variants as switchable layers over a globe or Earth-facing view. Its time controls run from live playback through 3,600× acceleration, while telescope presets extend from unaided viewing to 200× with a 200 mm specification. The page attributes aircraft and vessel coverage to named data sources and offers an optional encrypted, bring-your-own-key OpenAI connection for star-field guides.
