Tracking the ISS in 3D

High-Level Project Summary

It is a program made in python via visual studio code. it uses the turtle, time, urllib, json, ISS_Info, webbrowser, result from unittest modules and also using the json in the open-notify API. We extracted the tokens from the json file from the open-notify API and thus replacing them with tokens. And using the ISS_Info we can track the ISS latitude and longitude in real time on the world.

Space Agency Data

i used the open-notify API. The Json file from there named astros.json. We used it to get the name of the astronauts on board the ISS

Hackathon Journey

It was very beautiful and very fluid and indeed inspiring.
