Show HN: NASA Artemis II Mission Timeline Tracker
sunnywingsvirtual.comThat's really awesome! One feature request though: Can you make it so mousing over (or clicking on) an acronym tells you what it means? There are so many acronyms, it's hard for a layperson like myself to understand much of it.
I didn't build it. I just found it on a live stream (https://www.twitch.tv/ej_sa) of the mission. Maybe `Show HN:` was the wrong prefix.
Ah, yeah, Show HN is for things you made. Interesting links such as the one you shared are just shared without any special prefix.
From the HN FAQ:

Thanks, nice detailed overview. I've found this sort of info hard to find. There's also this seeming broadcast schedule which I can't follow for the life of me:

Also live views from Orion: https://youtube.com/watch?v=6RwfNBtepa4
I wanted a top-down view of Earth and Moon with Artemis' current live position shown on it.
Google AI couldn't do it, ChatGPT told me it couldn't do it because Artemis 2 hadn't launched yet.
Seems to me like an obvious view to want to see. Seems to me like a NASA contractor could have squeezed its production into the $4 billion budget for this flight.
Does such a thing exist ?

Thanks !
But I assume it was tested on a GTX5090 - unusably slow for my laptop.
Works just fine on my laptop, it's got a RTX5000 Ada GPU w/16GB VRAM in it.
as constructive criticism the mobile version of the site is kinda clunky
A simple button to minimize blue panel would get us 90% there.
Looks like loveable can't do mobile design yet!
Thank you for building this.
This is awesome! Thank you!
Good stuff.
decoder ring?
