Is there something like https://www.flightradar24.com for satellites?

Would be kind of interesting to build a “live” visualization of objects in earths orbit. But this would require accurate live data of those objects. Probably nothing that companies would publish.

On the other hand side: once the object and its orbit is identified, positions could be calculated…

Does anyone know more?

Another interesting site already featured on Hacker News.

https://stuffin.space also shows debree, and will show orbits when you click on objects.

Unlike aircraft, satellites have VERY predictable movements, with the occasional small maneuver.
