Inspiration

We wanted to make satellite spotting more accessible and help people feel more connected to the night sky.

What it does

AstroAlert shows which satellites and celestial objects may pass overhead and helps users know when to look up with timely alerts.

How we built it

We designed AstroAlert to turn complex sky and satellite information into a clear, personalized experience on your phone.

Challenges we ran into

Making space-related information easy to understand and useful for a specific location and time was one of our main challenges.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We’re proud to make satellite spotting feel approachable, engaging, and easy to fit into everyday life.

What we learned

We learned that a small, timely alert can turn curiosity about space into a real-world moment of discovery.

What's next for AstroAlert

We want to keep improving the experience, expand discovery features, and help more people explore what’s passing overhead.
