A SpaceX simulator that familiarizes users with the controls of the interface NASA astronauts use to manually pilot the Dragon 2 vehicle to the International Space Station. Users practice rotation and position controls, and docking succeeds when all green numbers are below 0.2 and the rate is below -0.2 m/s.
The Project Apollo Archive is described as one of the web's earliest repositories of high-quality images associated with NASA's historic manned lunar landing program. The page states that it requires browser support for frames and JavaScript.
RocketLaunch.org lists rocket launches scheduled for the day, including launches from SpaceX, NASA and other agencies. It provides live updates, videos, mission details and a live countdown, and offers pages for past launches, scheduled launches, launch sites and launch providers.
A beta interactive astronomy calendar that lists meteor showers, conjunctions and eclipses and gives moon and sun rise and set times for each day of the year, adjusted to the user's location. The site also describes a printed wall calendar with astronomical times customized to each user's location.
LiveMeteors.com lets listeners hear live meteor radio echoes, described as meteor pings while meteors strike Earth's atmosphere. Terrestrial VHF signals can be reflected by ionized trails left when tiny meteors burn up in the upper atmosphere. The site notes that strong continuous signals lasting more than a minute are unlikely to be meteor echoes, and that Sporadic E propagation can prevent detection.
Siril is an astronomical image processing tool. It supports preprocessing steps such as calibration, stacking and enhancement, and tools for analyzing star brightness variation and astrometry. It can process SER videos and FITS cubes, and algorithms run on all computer cores. Versions are offered for Linux, Windows and macOS.
Space Telescope Live is an X account that provides up-to-date information on current, past and future observations from the Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA Webb telescope. It asks what the two telescopes are looking at right now and links to spacetelescopelive.org.
