About the project

An explorable WebGL atlas of the known universe where every frame is drawn with printable ASCII characters, from Earth to the edge of the observable universe. Planet, star and satellite positions are real; each object's look is a physically based artist's rendering.

Useful for

Take a flyby past galaxies and black holes to gauge their scale.
Check the real night sky at your location with Moon phases and ISS passes.
Save a framed view as ASCII text or an image in photo mode.

Why it’s trending

0 stars so far today, about 18 expected by the end of the day.
The spike has held for 3 days in a row — not a one-off blip.
The repository is 2 days old and already has 67 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
Top new repositories this week: #200.
About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
