Introduction
This site is designed to align some of the fast moving technology innovation and communication services relevant to NZ home owners. We also aim to help educate users of the complexities that most of us take for granted when we switch on the TV or watch a movie on Nextflix or send an email from home. Kiwis are fast becoming both participants and recipients as a result of space project innovations. Its an exciting time and space.
Starlink Live
There are a number of satellite simulators that have been created by enthusiast the world over. This is a real time tracker and simulator and will give you an idea where in the world a starlink satellite is located in orbit. It provides a visulastaion in an interactive 3D model. Take and look and send your thanks to the creators or this program.
Starlink Simulator
Starlink simulator is another live model built by Mike Puchol , his model takes analysis a bit further providing you with more details focused on the end user location and connectivity, therefore providing you with a deeper learning experience of the functional and operational aspects of the satellite constellation in relation to your own home. Open in a desktop browser as it is not mobile friendly, but worth a look.
SpaceX
Spacex is an Elon Musk owned Company and is tasked with launching satellites for the Starlink internet project. Spacex is also launching satellites for Nasa and other customer space projects and has an ambition to travel the Plant Mars. A private company with huge ambitions. However, under Elons leadership success is highly probable. Follow and watch this "space".
