Space Launch Now

This is my main side project, a spaceflight tracker for Android and iOS using data from The Space Devs - Launch Library API. It was first launched in 2016 as the first quality spaceflight even tracking mobile app at a time where renewed public focus was being brought in thanks to the efforts of SpaceX. The project is very mature now with a robust CI/CD pipeline, backend services for GCM, Twitter/Instagram bots and other various services all running on a Digital Ocean hosted kubernetes cluster.

Next Launch βŒ›

The next space launch, retrieved from The Space Devs Launch Library 2 API, is Long March 2C | Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM). It is scheduled to be launched by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation from Launch Complex 3 (LC-3/LA-1), Xichang Satellite Launch Center, People's Republic of China at 2024-06-22 06:50:00 UTC. Until then, this pad will have been used for 91 out of 206 launches from this location. The launch status is currently Go 🟩 . The mission type is Astrophysics and the payload will be injected into a Low Earth Orbit (LEO).

The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a French/Chinese planned small X-ray telescope satellite under development by China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the Centre National d'Γ‰tudes Spatiales (CNES).

SVOM will study the explosions of massive stars by analysing the resulting gamma-ray bursts. The lightweight X-ray mirror for SVOM weighs just 1 kg (2.2 lb). SVOM will add new capabilities to the work of finding gamma-ray bursts currently being done by the multinational satellite Swift.

Its anti-solar pointing strategy makes the Earth cross the field of view of its payload every orbit.
