Worth noticing
The homepage says satellite positions use published orbital elements, with data refreshed from CelesTrak every two hours.

Field notes

The site describes orbital positions as computed from published elements rather than guessed, and says each object includes a data-age indicator and accuracy estimate. Its planned object pages are described as combining orbit details, a live ground track, freely licensed imagery, and a NASA 3D model where available, with image licences and sources recorded.
