SPACE SCIENCE What's Happening Today KENNEDY SPACE CENTER - SPACE LAUNCHES TODAY - NASA NASA REAL TIME ORBITAL TRACKING DATA - NASA Tracking Applications include Live 2D Java Satellite Tracking Maps "...is a great way to locate Hubble Space Telescope, Chandra X-Ray Observatory or any of your favorite satellites other than International Space Station or Space Shuttle..." Human Space Flight's Tracking Map is "...a part of the Human Space Flight web site, shows the position of the International Space Station and, when it is flying, the Space Shuttle..." Live 3D Java Tracking Display "...Did you know there are over eight thousand artificial objects orbiting Earth? Over 2,500 are satellites, operative and inoperative. The remaining objects are orbital debris: parts such as nosecone shrouds, lens, hatch covers, rocket bodies, payloads that have disintegrated or exploded, and even objects that "escape" from manned spacecraft during operations..." Predictions for Viewing Space Station, or Other Satellites; etc..."
