Keep Track is probably the most advanced tool for tracking and monitoring satellites orbiting above the Earth.
The first contact with the tool can be overwhelming for many, due to the huge amount of information it contains and the options for displaying it. The most important here are the green dots that hang above the Earth. Each of them represents one satellite orbiting our planet. Basic information about their name, launch date or flight trajectory is available after hovering the cursor, while clicking on them provides dozens of additional data, including the speed of the objects, the highest and lowest altitude in orbit, or the time it takes to circle the Earth. In addition, information about the launch site, the rocket carrying it or the type of satellite is also added.
The real advantage of the site is the incredibly extensive possibility of customizing the displayed data. The tool allows you to display only satellites belonging to a given country, grids of specific groups of objects (e.g. only Starlinks or GPS satellites), or a planetarium-style view. In addition, it is also possible to travel in time, starting from 1957, where with each successive year more satellites will appear orbiting in the sky until the present day.
If the available functions have not yet impressed you, the creator of Keep Track does not cease to surprise. The site also offers the option of conducting a missile attack simulation! Among the built-in variants are, among others, mutual attacks by Russia, China and North Korea on the USA. We can also choose the place from which the missiles will be launched and the target of the attack. Everything is presented in the form of an animation.
We strongly encourage people interested in the subject of space conquest and exploration to play with the tool on their own, because it still hides a huge number of functions and options for presenting the collected data.
