LeoLabs Space Platform: live LEO visualization and conjunction search
LeoLabs' browser visualization of low Earth orbit, built on its own radar network: search the catalogue by satellite or constellation, watch today's conjunctions and follow launches. Free to open, commercial data behind it.
CelesTrak: orbital element sets for Starlink, OneWeb, Kuiper and every constellation
CelesTrak, run by Dr. T.S. Kelso, publishes the general perturbation element sets (TLE, OMM, JSON, CSV) for every tracked satellite, grouped by constellation: Starlink, OneWeb, Kuiper, Iridium NEXT, Globalstar and more, plus operator-supplied supplemental data. Free, updated continuously.
satellitemap.space: real-time map of Starlink, OneWeb and 30,000 satellites
satellitemap.space, online since 2019, plots more than 30,000 satellites live on a WebGL globe with dedicated views for Starlink and other internet constellations: growth and launch charts, decays, orbits, ground stations, a re-entry monitor, close-approach detector and a LEO box score comparing constellations.
Eutelsat's OneWeb LEO constellation, explained by Eutelsat (video)
Eutelsat's own 2.5-minute explainer (July 2026) of the OneWeb constellation: 600+ satellites in 12 polar planes at 1,200 km, Ka-band gateways and Ku-band user links, sold to enterprises, governments, ships and aircraft through distributors rather than direct. Context: the September 2026 order of 229 more satellites and the IRIS² transition.
Europe steps up satellite capabilities amid doubts over Starlink (Bloomberg)
Bloomberg's 6-minute report (March 2025, 428,000 views) on Europe looking at Eutelsat OneWeb as a sovereign alternative to Starlink after the US paused support to Ukraine. We add what Europe actually did next: the IRIS² contracts and the 229-satellite OneWeb order of September 2026.
Mega-constellations in three minutes: O3b mPOWER, OneWeb and Starlink
A concise academic explainer (November 2023) of non-geostationary constellations, comparing SES's O3b mPOWER in medium Earth orbit with OneWeb and Starlink in low Earth orbit, made alongside a Frontiers paper on connecting space missions through NGSO constellations. Good for the orbit and orbital-plane basics.
Starlink vs Amazon Kuiper vs OneWeb: the 2020 comparison (Found And Explained)
An 8-minute 2020 explainer comparing the three LEO broadband projects as they were planned: Starlink, Amazon's Kuiper and OneWeb, then in bankruptcy. Useful as a time capsule; we score the predictions against the 2026 reality: 11,000+ Starlink satellites working, 398 Amazon Leo launched, OneWeb at 600+ under Eutelsat.
