Satellites Catcher| Orbital Sky
Orbital Sky
Up above
Summary
An app that simplifies all about satellites with touch of fun.It contains 4 consecutive levels with tasks to be more interactive:1. Overlook of what will earth look like while satellites are moving around.2. choose a region/ur location to see satellites above and a sky full of stars.3. Select a satellite and see -what inside it/how it works-the earth from the its eyePlus u can jump from one to another.4. for advanced, tasks to unlock the next piece of data, with more engaging activities.
How We Addressed This Challenge
We have developed an application whose idea is to be divided into levels as a solution to this challenge,
It is important because it enables people to see what is above in an easier and imaginable way, in order to answer a question
The application works in four sonsequtive levels which are
1. Overlook of what will earth look like while the satellites are moving around.
2. choose a region/ur location to see satellites above and a sky full of stars.
3. Select a satellite and see
-what inside these amazing engineered artifacts/how it works.
-the earth from the its eye
Plus being able to jump from one to another.
4. for field applicants, a task for each part to unlock the next piece of data, with more engaging activities.
And we hope that people will be more interested in space and satellites, know how important it role in makin our life here on Earth better and strengthen people's relationship with space.
How We Developed This Project
We hope that you will achieve what matters to most people in space and satellites, and appreciate their role, to make our lives on Earth easier here, how people work in space and what is there
Our choice for the challenge was to answer many questions about space circulating within us and we achieved it.
We used html, css, bootstrap, javescript.
Some of the problems were that we were not able to collect data sufficiently, especially on the latest level of the application, and that time was not on our side
What was achieved is completing the first and second levels with good use of Nasa's data.
How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project
We have NASA satellite code to complete the application through Java
In the first level an image of the planet was used from
https://worldwind.earth/explorer/
On the second level, we used satellite images from the NASA library
