Inspiration

The issue of space pollution, which has only ever expanded over time, seems to not be addressed by any of the major space agencies. Given the scale of the problem, and the possibility to hinder future human advancement, we saw the issue of littering space with unintended waste as a major issue that need to address.

What it does

Our program allows individuals to enter a country name and gain access to information about satellites and rocket bodies in order to bring awareness to the dangers of space debris. Our database currently consists of only the major countries that have a large impact on the creation of space debris.

How we built it

We created our website from HTML and CSS. Our database is made of JavaScript.

Challenges

Since we were relatively new to HTML and CSS we had trouble wrapping the image around the texts. Furthermore, making the data base out of JavaScript and connecting it with HTML created a hassle, as we didn't know how to use API data and sort it according to categories. Consequently, we instead manually inputted in some information for each country while still using inspiration from AstriaGraph.
