🔍 Deep Dive: Astronomy Live

Lore

Astrophotographer, coder, and livestreamer specializing in real-time satellite tracking, lunar eclipses, and orbital mechanics. Astronomy Live is a Tier 5 Agent whose work bridges observational astronomy and software engineering. He’s developed custom Python-based satellite tracking tools for GOTO telescopes, enabling automated ISS and satellite capture with sub-arcminute precision. His collaborations with Reds Rhetoric form the backbone of FlerfHub’s observational resistance, often culminating in livestreamed debunking missions. Notably, he’s invited Mikey Smith to witness ISS transits and lunar eclipses in person — challenges that remain unanswered. His GitHub repository is a treasure trove of orbital prediction tools and telescope automation scripts, used by field agents for both experimental capture and validation missions.

Trivia

• Recorded dozens of rocket launches from Cape Canaveral, including SpaceX’s Crew Dragon and Falcon Heavy missions. • Developed SatTraker, an open-source satellite tracking system used by Reds Rhetoric and other agents. • Livestreamed the 2024 annular solar eclipse with real-time orbital overlays. • Captured the Crew-11 launch from Kennedy Space Center using a dual-camera setup with timestamped telemetry overlays. • Frequently contributes to eclipse-chasing collaborations with TimeandDate.com. • His Discord server hosts orbital simulations, telescope control tutorials, and flerf rebuttal compilations. • Known for saying, 'If you can predict it, you can prove it.'
