The Full Sky.
In 360°.

The circular display is purpose-built for a sky-dome view — satellites arc across the full scope from horizon to horizon. No phone app matches the situational awareness of an always-on dedicated display.

  • ● Azimuth rings — Concentric circles mark 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° elevation in real time
  • ● Satellite trails — Orbital paths faintly trace behind each object as it moves across your sky
  • ● Tap to identify — Name, operator country, launch site, orbital period, next pass time

Live Orbital Data.
Always On Your Desk.

Everything overhead — plotted in real time, updated live, no screen refresh required.

ISS Live Position

The International Space Station's real-time position is plotted continuously on the orbital scope. See its current ground track, altitude, and time to your next pass.

Starlink Passes

Live tracking of the entire Starlink constellation — see train passes approaching, the number of satellites overhead, and the full Starlink orbital plane in motion.

NORAD Catalogue

Every active satellite in the NORAD TLE catalog is plotted in real time — over 5,000 active objects tracked using verified orbital element data, updated live.

Next Pass Times

SkyWatch calculates when key satellites will pass over your exact location — ISS, Hubble, Tiangong, and more. Know before you look up.

Orbital Dome View

The circular display renders a live dome-view sky scope — satellites shown as they appear from above your position, moving in real time across the orbital plane.

Always On

No phone, no app, no browser tab. Once on Wi-Fi, the orbital scope runs 24/7 on your desk — tracking thousands of objects overhead without a single tap.

Your Sky,
Mapped Live.

SkyWatch renders a live dome view of every satellite above your horizon — exactly what's overhead from your location, moving in real time.

1
Real-Time Sky-Dome Rendering A true celestial dome projection maps all satellites above your horizon — not a flat world map, but a live view of what's actually visible from where you are right now.
2
Tunable Elevation Mask Filter out low-horizon clutter with an adjustable elevation mask. Set your minimum viewing angle and SkyWatch only shows objects above that threshold — ideal for obstructed horizons.
3
Location-Specific Visibility Predictions Pass times and visibility windows are computed for your exact latitude and longitude — not a regional average. Every prediction is personalised to your location.
4
Tap to Reveal Full Pass Details Tap any satellite blip to reveal its complete data — azimuth, elevation, slant range, next pass time, and more. Everything visible from the display, no phone required.

Choose What
You Track.

Four distinct catalog modes let you dial in exactly the view you want — from casual visual spotting to full orbital awareness of every active payload in orbit.

Mode 01
Bright & Easy to Spot

A curated selection of the brightest, most visually trackable satellites currently in orbit. Perfect for observers who want to see real objects with the naked eye — no binoculars needed. SkyWatch highlights each one as it approaches your sky.

For Visual Observers
Mode 02
Space Stations

Track every active crewed orbital platform in real time — the International Space Station, China's Tiangong, and all other human-occupied stations. Know exactly when the next station will cross your sky, and how long it will be visible.

ISS · Tiangong · Crewed Platforms
Mode 03
Starlink Tracking

Follow SpaceX's entire Starlink mega-constellation as it sweeps overhead. Spot train passes, count the number of Starlink satellites currently visible, and watch the shells expand in real time. The display shows individual satellite positions and approach trajectories.

SpaceX Starlink Constellation
Mode 04
All Active Payloads

The full NORAD catalogue of active payloads — every functioning satellite currently in orbit, plotted live. Over 5,000 tracked objects updated continuously from Space-Track.org. The most comprehensive orbital view available on any desk display.

5,000+ Objects · Full Catalogue
NORAD TLE Data

Real NORAD
Orbital Data

SkyWatch uses Two-Line Element (TLE) sets from Space-Track.org — the official NORAD orbital catalogue maintained by the US Space Force. Every active satellite is tracked using verified, continuously-updated orbital parameters. This is the same data used by aerospace agencies worldwide.

Via Space-Track.org The official US Space Force satellite catalogue — over 25,000 tracked objects, updated multiple times daily with precision orbital elements.
Orbital predictions are highly accurate for near-term passes (hours ahead). Precise to within seconds for ISS and Starlink passes. Accuracy decreases slightly beyond 48 hours due to atmospheric drag variance.

What's on
the Display

Every dot on the orbital scope is a real satellite — tracked to the second.

1
Satellite Blips Each dot is a real active satellite, plotted using live NORAD orbital elements at your current time and location. The ISS appears as a highlighted object.
2
Ground Track Arc The arc beneath each satellite shows its recent orbital path — letting you see which direction it's travelling and how it will pass relative to your position.
3
Constellation Groupings Starlink satellites appear grouped by orbital shell — you can see the entire train approaching and watch it sweep overhead in real time.
4
Pass Highlight When the ISS or a selected satellite is about to pass overhead, the display highlights it with a countdown and trajectory line for your viewing window.
5
Live Orbital Propagation Orbital positions are computed in real time using SGP4/SDP4 propagation — the standard used by space agencies worldwide for satellite tracking.

Tap Any Satellite.

Space Mode Backer
★★★★★

"I've had the ISS tracker running on a second browser tab for two years. The moment I saw SkyWatch I ordered it — a physical circular display permanently showing satellite positions on my desk is exactly what I didn't know I needed. NORAD data means it's actually accurate, not an approximation. I can finally close that tab."

Space Mode FAQ

Yes — the ISS position is computed live using NORAD TLE data and plotted on the orbital scope in real time. The accuracy is within a few seconds, which means what you see on the display matches where the ISS actually is overhead. SkyWatch also shows your next ISS pass time and duration.
Yes — the full Starlink constellation is tracked using NORAD elements. You can see individual Starlink satellites and identify when a train will pass over your location with a pass countdown. The display shows the constellation in real time as the satellites move in their orbital planes.
Orbital predictions are accurate to within a few seconds for near-term events (next 24–48 hours) for low Earth orbit objects like ISS and Starlink. Accuracy decreases slightly for longer-term predictions due to atmospheric drag and solar radiation effects, which is why TLE data is updated multiple times daily. For viewing windows, the accuracy is well within the relevant margin.
SkyWatch Space Mode gives you four selectable catalog views: Bright & Easy to Spot (the most visually trackable satellites, great for naked-eye observing), Space Stations (ISS, Tiangong, and all crewed platforms), Starlink Tracking (the full SpaceX constellation with train pass detection), and All Active Payloads (the complete NORAD catalogue of 5,000+ active satellites). Switch between them any time from the SkyWatch app.
Tapping any satellite on the dome reveals a full data panel: current azimuth and elevation readings, slant range (line-of-sight distance in km), next visibility pass time from your location, NORAD object type classification, operator country, launch site, orbital period, and satellite photography where available. Every field is pulled live from the NORAD TLE catalogue and updated in real time.
Not at all — your $299 includes every mode at launch: Space/Satellites, Aircraft Tracking, Maritime Vessels, Sports Scores, Weather, Flight Logging, Traffic Conditions, Financial Tickers, Astronomy, News Headlines, Games, Timekeeping, and every mode added via Wi-Fi update. Switch any time from the app. Nothing is locked, nothing costs extra.
