24 alternatives to Where Is Artemis?

The other day I googled "Where is Artemis" expecting to find a tracker showing me the position, but instead getting results from news articles without live data. I eventually found the NASA tracker (https://www.nasa.gov/missions/artemis-ii/arow/) and https://artemislivetracker.com/, but neither is optimized for mobile and frankly I found them both underwhelming. The domain (whereisartemis.com) was available and I thought "someone should use that", bought the domain and got started. Hopefully, this is something that can be extended for future…

Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

    Made a little Artemis II tracker for anyone else who is unnecessarily invested in this mission: https://artemis-ii-tracker.com/ For those of us who apparently need a dedicated place to monitor this mission instead of behaving like well-adjusted people.

    Earlier this year, I made a web reader that only showed a list of post titles, author domains, and links. The reader only updated once per day, so I wouldn't feel compelled to keep checking for new posts. I have been using the tool, which I called Artemis, for several months. Every morning, I looked forward to my "morning paper" of blogs I love reading. There are no notifications, read vs. unread states, counts of posts, etc. Only the last seven days of posts are available. The colour scheme is changeable. Dark mode is supported. All popular feed formats are supported. There is no reading…

    There are plenty of Artemis II trackers out there. I looked at a bunch and kept running into the same issues - some had data that didn't look right, it was hard to use on smaller screen, others felt overly complicated for what I actually wanted to know: what's the crew doing, where is Orion, how fast is it going. The best one I found was issinfo.net/artemis, which inspired a lot of the design. So I built my own. The part that was genuinely interesting to me was the data. Turns out anyone can query JPL's Horizons API for full ephemeris data on the Orion spacecraft - position, velocity,…

    This is a little hobby project that I hope you enjoy. You can see where the International Space Station is now, with live HD video from NASA, on a realistic 3D globe. The positions of the sun and moon are also accurate, though distances aren't to scale. The clouds are also near-realtime; I span that out into a separate project at https://clouds.matteason.co.uk, where the cloud images I create from EUMETSAT data are freely available. I've got more features almost ready to go, like the ability to turn off all UI, toggleable clouds and turning off the day/night cycle I'd love for…

    Sup HN, So I got tired of bouncing between Flightradar, MarineTraffic, and Twitter every time something kicked off globally, so I wrote a dashboard to aggregate it all locally. It’s called Shadowbroker. I’ll admit I leaned way too hard into the "movie hacker" aesthetic for the UI, but the actual pipeline underneath is real. It pulls commercial/military ADS-B, the AIS WebSocket stream (about 25,000+ ships), N2YO satellite telemetry, and GDELT conflict data into a single MapLibre instance. Getting this to run without melting my browser was the hardest part. I'm running this on a laptop…

    Over the last year, I've worked on aggregating Groundhog data, including predictions, location, and a cute photo. Welcome to GROUNDHOG-DAY.com: The clean and breathable, machine-readable, all-regional data source for Groundhog Day forecasts. Find your fave groundhog, peruse past predictions, or trek the continent-wide Groundhog Map. Includes enterprise-grade API for corporate use cases.

    I got fed up with the news reader apps out there so I decided to make my own. Its a simple concept where it tracks all your favorite news sources for new posts and the social shares it received. Then it ranks it HN/Reddit style using social shares as upvotes. It's not meant to be alternative to HN, just a focused way to track your favorite sources. Please try it out and let me know what do you think, http://telescope.surf/ Note: you can do 'Add to Homescreen' on mobile to make it as an app. Please leave a feedback or any feature wishlist you may have. Thanks!

    Based on the multiple "Who's hiring remotely?" and similar posts on HN, I thought it might be useful to have a site that aggregates remote programming jobs. There is way too much spam out and an inconsistent way to say "work from home" so traditional searching doesn't work (or rather, takes a long time per person). I've worked in a few remote programming positions so I figured I might know of some companies or searching tricks to find them. Let me know if you'd find this type of thing useful. If we can get some traffic going, then maybe we can start attracting companies to actually list…

    Hey HN, we just launched MyRudius.com -- a completely new type of marketplace to find freelance gigs. I'd sincerely appreciate any feedback! Feel free to be blunt and honest... There's definitely work to be done. It currently uses fairly out-of-the-box Twitter Boostrap, for one thing. Thanks for any feedback available! http://www.myrudius.com

    Hey HN! Y’all are great. It is so fun to build things these days. I wanna show off this archive that I conjured to run at home for consuming the recently releases of UFO files from the US government. This started as a Mac Mini-hosted project that I executed with my OpenClaw over Discord. After showing this to a few friends, I decided to get it online and find a catchy domain. Cloudflare was the perfect hosting choice. There’s a lot of bonkers things out there going on, so I added human curated “Signals” - news, analysis and discussion of UFO and adjacent news. The backlog of signals was…

    Two weeks ago I posted a link to my side project (http://flightlite.com) and got some great feedback from HNers. I've spent a lot of time tweaking and improving based on that and I'm really happy with the result - it's much more usable and useful now! What's better: - reduced complexity of the main tracking page based on feedback from #veb - new search functionality (auto-completion, blended all search types into one search box) - thanks #robyates for your input - failover to large Google Maps view if Google Earth isn't installed with prompt and link to install from - added a proper 404 page…

    I don't always all-caps, but when I do, it's because every word is an acronym. The NASA HORIZONS[1] system is a telnet service that provides planetary data and ephemeris tables, which are basically coordinate-time plots for celestial bodies. It's pretty archaic and somewhat difficult to use, especially since it just dumps out text tables and you have to parse it to do anything with it. Some projects, e.g. KDE Marble, use it as a data source and typically just consume it with a little procedural code to get what they need. I wanted to provide a full-fledged library for it so that you can…

    Hello everyone! I know there are already a few "Who Is Hiring" aggregators, but I wanted to show off what I've done. My project was cancelled right before Christmas, so this project was a great way to blow off some steam while procrastinating looking for a new job. Tangentially, I am looking for new career opportunities if your company needs a full stack web developer, lol. This website was completed in about a week and a half. I wanted to present it in a Show HN post on Jan 2 when the usual Who Is Hiring posts were featured, but I didn't think it had enough features to make it useful. Even…

    http://flightlite.com Flightlite is a visual flight tracker combining 3D and overhead views and flight information. It is my first launch since I started reading Hacker News and was developed as a side project for the past 6 months or so. I made the final push on it this morning to get it to a semi-launchable state. - The best coverage is US and UK - Sometimes the data I get is a bit crazy (spent a lot of effort to correct/sanitise it but it's not perfect) - Doesn't work in IE 64bit or Linux due to Google Earth not being available I'm now trying to work out how to take this further, if there…
