About
What's Orbiting is a small, interactive map of things circling our planet—satellites, missions, and a few familiar objects—so you can explore without a telescope or a science degree.
Pick layers from the catalog, search by name, tap a dot on the globe, and watch positions update over time. Data comes from public two-line element (TLE) feeds and similar sources; orbits are approximations for visualization, not flight or navigation data.
Built for curiosity. If something looks off, it's almost always limits of the underlying data or the simplified physics—not an official service.
