My daughter and I made this 10 years ago for the NASA Space Apps Challenge and I notified a whole bunch of folk at NASA but never heard anything back. Laughably amateurish compared to this magnificent work but it was fun to make.
We actually started work on the next version - a tool that lets you mark begin/end photo frames from those incredible fly-bys and save them off as video but it's maybe not worth it now.
I've always found the timelapse videos from ISS much more interesting than from satellites in geosync at least artistically. The angles are more interesting. I love the ones at night where you can see the city lights, the stars in the background, the Kármán line, auroras, and lightning.
One of the first projects I when I was learning how to be a proper hacker by using curl (at least according to certain states) was from NASA images which I would then turn into timelapse videos as well. I used imagery from SOHO to watch the sun on a weekly basis with a cronjob that would run once a week and deliver a video.
Extraordinary work. We’re able to go back to the dates and times when our labs were operational. This context is profound for our engagement with schools around the world. Well done!
Never got around to create bespoke visualisations for all the different kinds of metrics, but having all that data in Grafana made it a lot easier to play around and get insights.
Yes and no. I have 7+ years and counting of telemetry recordings but I don't know of a resource that would let me get all of it historically. If you know of one, please let me know.
The recordings that I do have will be integrated into the website at some point. I was going to do it as part of the initial launch but I ran out of time.

Very cool! Your idea about auto-generating timelapse videos was taken up by NASA. https://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/BeyondThePhotography/CrewEarthObser...
Wow - that's incredible. I can't wait to take a look. Thanks for the pointer.

Awesome work! Surely a huge labor of love to dig up that much content out of the public domain. Congrats on the launch!
This is unbelievably amazing. Instant favourite, along with the Apollo 11 replay site https://apolloinrealtime.org/11/
Is stated in the linked article but in case anyone missed it: same creators as Apollo in Real Time
Incredible, such a clear labor of love! Thank you for sharing it with the world!
Is there a historical record of the data that appears through the ISS stats tracker?
https://iss-mimic.github.io/Mimic/
Lots of interesting information in there, like how much water is getting used, and which direction all the panels are facing.
I turned the awesome work of the ISS Mimic into a Prometheus+Grafana stack a while ago: https://github.com/radiergummi/iss-metrics

Nice work, love the access to all the comms history.
Is there a list of useful science/inventions that this project has led to?
Such a shame they want to burn this up
25 years and -5 days?
In five days we will mark 25 years since Expedition 1 begun.
