I’m hoping to create a web page that will show the positions of the Starlink satellite sin the sky.

General idea is as follows:

Starlink visulisation project.

1. Web page to call recent GP elements (one line csv) file from satsig server. ( Was 2 line elements )  
e.g [https://www.satsig.net/satellite/tls-archive/gp-starlink-2026-08-15.csv](https://www.satsig.net/satellite/tls-archive/gp-starlink-2026-08-15.csv)

2. Process this to generate, for each satellite, starting positions (Aries longitude, latitude, height) at GP element Epoch.

3. For current time and each satellite work out positions now (Greenwich longitude, latitude, height).

4. From now on various options about display.

5 Option to choose different GP element set for different constellation.

Update 19 Sept 2026

No progress so far.

Also no new member of this new forum. Maybe I’ve got it wrong but trying to get new members.
