Space Station Passes vs SatNOGS

Know when to look up—and where to look. Space Station Passes helps you spot the International Space Station, Tiangong, and other satellites from your chosen location. Plan your next observation with pass forecasts, interactive sky charts, and reminders. • Find your next visible pass: See upcoming passes, their timing, and how high each satellite will appear above the horizon. • Follow the path across the sky: Explore interactive charts with stars, constellations, the Milky Way, and the Moon. • Know the key moments: Check when a satellite rises, reaches its highest visible point, and disappears from view. • Set a reminder: Schedule an alert for the pass you want to watch. • Explore beyond the space stations: Browse thousands of satellites, including bright satellites and recent launches. Explore the live planetarium in the Sky now tab. Search passing satellites, filter by distance or illumination, follow their paths, and report the brightness you observe.

SatNOGS Network is a global management interface to facilitate multiple ground station operations remotely. An observer is able to take advantage of the full network of SatNOGS ground stations around the world. The network is open to anyone. Any observer is able to utilize all available Ground Stations and communicate with Satellites. All observations results are public and all data are distributed freely under the Creative Commons Atribution-Share Alike license. Whether you own satellite ground station equipment or you want to build one you can head to SatNOGS Project site to get up to date documentation and info on how to build a SatNOGS ground station. App functionality is currently limited by SatNOGS API and will be significantly improved in next major release.
