Show HN: Every satellite that passed over any place this week, and its photos
Brief overview
A user developed a browser-based tool that allows inputting a location to query all satellites passing over it in the past 7 days and their real images (Sentinel-2/Landsat/NASA), rendering approximately 17,000 on-orbit objects via GPU and calculating Kepler's equations in real-time to achieve high-precision positioning. The tool only displays real satellite data and does not store user locations.
