Live Scientific Data Platform

The Sun does not wait, and neither do the asteroids. This is AsteriaStar's connection to the real, changing sky — space weather, solar activity, and near-Earth objects from the agencies that measure them. Honesty first: every provider shows its status and licence, and a provider that is not connected shows no data at all, never a fabricated one.

Status is read from the live-data catalogue and the live-sky provider registry. No provider is connected in this deployment; no live value is fabricated.

By category

  • Space Weather

    The near-real-time state of the Sun–Earth environment — solar wind, the planetary K-index, the geomagnetic storm scale, and alerts — served by NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center. Provider-fed only; no value is shown until a live connection is made.

    1 providers
  • Solar Activity

    Solar events — flares, coronal mass ejections, and solar energetic particle events — from NASA's DONKI database. Provider-fed only.

    1 providers
  • Near-Earth Objects

    Close approaches of asteroids and comets, from the IAU Minor Planet Center and JPL's Center for NEO Studies. Provider-fed only; no approach distance or date is shown until a live connection is made.

    2 providers
  • Orbital & Satellites

    Orbital elements and satellite passes — the ISS and other satellites via CelesTrak two-line elements and SGP4 propagation. Architecture-ready; the TLE feed and propagation are not yet wired.

    1 providers
  • Atmospheric Conditions

    The local conditions that decide an observing night — weather, seeing, transparency, cloud cover, and Bortle sky brightness. Awaiting a licence-safe open provider; no condition is ever fabricated.

  • Atmospheric ConditionsArchitecture-ready
    Atmospheric conditions

    The local conditions that decide whether an observing night happens — weather, atmospheric seeing, sky transparency, cloud cover, and Bortle sky brightness. No licence-safe open provider is connected; the interfaces are defined and await one, and no condition is ever fabricated.

  • CelesTrak Orbital ElementsArchitecture-ready
    Orbital / satellites

    CelesTrak publishes two-line orbital elements for the ISS and thousands of satellites, from which passes over an observer can be computed by SGP4 propagation. The source and pipeline are modelled here as architecture-ready; neither the live feed nor the propagation is wired, and no pass time is fabricated.

  • IAU Minor Planet CenterArchitecture-ready
    Near-Earth objects

    The IAU's clearing house for asteroid and comet observations, designations, and orbits, including near-Earth-object close approaches. Modelled as a real provider with an honest status; no close-approach data is shown until it is connected.

  • Near-Earth objects

    NASA JPL's Center for Near-Earth Object Studies computes close-approach tables and impact-risk (Sentry) summaries for asteroids and comets, served through the Solar System Dynamics APIs. Modelled as a real provider with an honest status; no approach distance or date is shown until it is connected.

  • NASA DONKIArchitecture-ready
    Solar activity

    NASA's open database of solar and space-weather events — flares, coronal mass ejections, solar energetic particle events, and interplanetary shocks — served through a public API. Modelled as a real provider with an honest status; no event is shown until it is connected.

  • Space weather

    The United States' official source for space-weather forecasts and alerts — solar wind, the planetary K-index, the geomagnetic storm scale, and radio-blackout and radiation warnings. Modelled here as a real provider with an honest status; no value is shown until it is connected.

Data & provenance

Each provider is a first-class knowledge-graph entity resolved through the Scientific Data Engine, reusing the operating organisation and the space-weather phenomena already in the graph. The integration reuses the existing live-sky provider registry as its source of truth for status. In this deployment no provider is connected, so no live value is shown — every provider reports its honest status, endpoint, licence, and limitations, and nothing is fabricated. See source quality.
