SentinelRadar is a state-of-the-art web application designed for real-time monitoring of Near-Earth Objects (NEOs), satellites, and orbital threats. It combines scientific data with a premium, cyberpunk-inspired military aesthetic, transforming complex astronomical data into an actionable intelligence dashboard.
Built for Planetary Defense Operators and space enthusiasts, SentinelRadar provides a unified view of the sky—from incoming asteroids to active satellite constellations.
To bridge the gap between academic space data and tactical visualization, providing everyone from space enthusiasts to researchers with a beautiful, responsive, and secure platform to watch the stars.

The primary interface featuring a 360-degree radar projection of Earth's immediate surroundings.
Features:
- Real-time NEO visualization with accurate positioning
- Color-coded hazard indicators (Green → Red)
- Live miss-distance calculations
- Velocity vectors displayed as arrows
- Interactive filtering and search
- Historical track overlays
Technical Stack:
- Three.js for 3D rendering
- WebGL for GPU acceleration
- Canvas API for radar grid
- Redux for state management
// Example: NEO Radar Point
interface NEORadarPoint {
id: string;
name: string;
distance_ld: number; // Lunar Distances
velocity_kms: number;
diameter_m: number;
hazard_level: 'LOW' | 'MEDIUM' | 'HIGH' | 'CRITICAL';
position_3d: { x: number; y: number; z: number };
trajectory: Vector3[];
}Automatically categorizes celestial objects using a proprietary Risk Index algorithm.
Risk Index Formula:
S_ri = (D_avg × V_rel) / (dist_miss × k)
Where:
D_avg = Estimated diameter (meters)
V_rel = Relative velocity (km/s)
dist_miss = Minimum miss distance (Lunar Distances)
k = Normalization constant (12,742)
Result: Risk Score 0-100
0-39 = LOW RISK 🟢
40-59 = MEDIUM RISK 🟡
60-79 = HIGH RISK 🟠
80-100 = CRITICAL RISK 🔴
Capabilities:
- Real-time risk recalculation as new data arrives
- Machine learning confidence scoring
- Anomaly detection for unusual trajectories
- Predictive impact probability modeling
- Historical pattern analysis
