We tried to bring the user closer to artificial satellites and encourage them to learn more about both celestial technology and amateur astronomy. Many people ignore the plethora of satellites passing above them at any given moment. Even more don't know that they are observable just like stars.

To address this we developed a browser app in which the user collects satellites via observing them on the sky, in order to gain access to a satellite point of view.

After getting the user's location, the app displays a planetarium view of the night sky with the satellites currently in orbit above him. Satellites observed in the past will be marked green, and clicking them will redirect the user to a view of earth and neighboring satellites, from a "satellite-view" perspective. Those not previously observed,displayed in red, will prompt the user to locate them- if they are visible-on the sky, using the device's gyroscope.

In this way, we aspire to motivate the users, to head their sights above, and come a little closer to the night sky, while also learning about our unseen heroes, the satellites.
