What planes are flying over you right now? (wolframalpha.tumblr.com) 37 points by creativityhurts 14y ago ↗ HN
[–] arethuza 14y ago ↗ I use: http://www.flightradar24.com/I just noticed it has some helicopter flights from Aberdeen to the rigs in the North Sea - very cool! [–] tehjones 14y ago ↗ I could get any flights from wolframalpha in aberdeen. That is much cooler. [–] kokey 14y ago ↗ Wolfram Alpha says there are no flights over London. I think I'll stick to http://www.flightradar24.com/ for now.

[–] kgthegreat 14y ago ↗ Satellites: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=satellites+overhead [–] rmc 14y ago ↗ That's cool. You can drill down into information on each satellite and see it's flight path. Funky. [–] arethuza 14y ago ↗ What happened to the Nasa applet that gave you a complete 3D view of all the satellites in orbit? It was awesome - I went looking for it the other day and it seems to have disappeared. [–] xelfer 14y ago ↗ Offline until 2012: http://science.nasa.gov/realtime-tracking/
