- wanick - 10752 sekunder sedanAuthor here. It's a browser view of the Solar System at real scale, with its current state, plus the objects around Earth from the CelesTrak catalog.
Data: CelesTrak TLEs (SGP4), asteroids and comets from JPL SBDB, spacecraft positions from JPL Horizons. Updated daily.
Rendering is WebGL2, orbit propagation runs in web workers. The asteroid set (~30 MB) loads in the background.
The time slider runs forwards and backwards; satellites appear and disappear by launch date.

- nugzbunny - 2269 sekunder sedanThis is amazing. Well done. How long did it take to make?
- eutropia - 6251 sekunder sedanWhat's with those giant blobs of asteroids offset in jupiter's orbit by like 60deg on either side?
- einpoklum - 5309 sekunder sedanWow, speedy and convenient! Well done!
Some insights:
* There is sooo much space debris! Dead sattelites and rocket bodies
* Starlink put up a hell of lot of satellites, too.
* There is a pretty dense sphere of items around the earth at geo-stationary orbit, a bit like a mantle; but most of all in a circle on that sphere.
