Chandra In Orbit: Visit Marshall Space Flight Center's (MSFC) real-time tracking system and see the current location of the Chandra spacecraft, once it has been launched (java enhanced).
MSFC also offers J-Track 3D, an exciting, three dimensional version of their real-time tracking software (java enhanced).
Note: J-Track 3D is computationally intensive! The faster the computer, the more usable it will be.
NASA Sky Watch: Human Space Flight offers orbital tracking of the space shuttle during missions.
NASA SkyWatch is a web-based Java application
that provides sky watchers around the world with a
visual picture of when and where the International
Space Station, the space shuttle and other
spacecraft can be seen with the unaided eye as
they pass overhead. Another special feature of
NASA SkyWatch is that it can accurately predict
shuttle entry sightings. The application may be used to
sight other satellites by using readily available two-line element
sets. (java enhanced).
Shuttle Tracking: Human Space Flight offers orbital tracking of the space shuttle during missions.
Computers at JSC receive telemetry data via satellite
downlink, process the data, and make it available through the Information Sharing
Protocol (ISP). Other information provided includes a map of the world, location of the International Space Station the Sun's zenith and more (java enhanced).
