LEFT.
In January 2031 it gets steered into the Pacific. Until then it crosses your sky most weeks, and you can see it with your own eyes.
04 · THE PANEL
The ISS is one light in the sky. HighAbove is a 64×64 LED panel for your desk or wall that tracks all of it: the satellites and rocket stages crossing over your head, every rocket launch on Earth, the Moon and the planets tonight.
DEMO DATA
It reads your N.I.N.A. session over your network: subs done, time left, the meridian flip, guiding and cloud. Read from across the room, not off the laptop.
Desk, shelf or wall. Black, quiet, and dark when there's nothing to show.
No account and no hub: the panel, your Wi-Fi and the app.
One USB-C cable powers it all.
On first boot it shows a code. Scan it from the app on your phone.
The app sets your location, Wi-Fi and night schedule + Filters what you see.
It does the rest, and cuts in when something's overhead.
The globe at the top of this page shows it live: the point on Earth directly below the station, its height and its speed, worked out in your browser from the station's latest published orbit. It moves about 7.7 km every second.
Open the tracker's Passes tab and pick your place. A pass marked visible is one where the station is in sunlight while your sky is dark, which is when you can see it with your own eyes.

Australia first. It works anywhere with Wi-Fi, and we'll open more countries after the first batch.
No. Passes, launches, the Moon and the planets are all for the naked eye. The imaging pages are a bonus for people who have one.
For orbits, launches and weather. The Moon and planets work offline.
Yes. Set an off or dim schedule in the app.
Yes. NASA plans to steer it into a remote part of the Pacific around January 2031, and the date can move. HighAbove counts down to the same date, and shows you every pass until then. Source.
