Earth Shack Software — Situational Awareness Suite

See what is happening
on and above the Earth.

Sentinel and Guardian are complementary local-first tools for environmental, orbital, space-weather, propagation, and station awareness. Each runs independently in a modern browser, under your control.

Guardian — space weather and propagation dashboard

Sentinel
v1.1

Real-time Earth and space situational awareness — clean, fast, and always-on.

Built for
Operators, educators, radio hobbyists, and anyone who wants a trusted, at-a-glance picture of what's happening on and above the Earth.
  • ISS, CSS, and two selectable amateur satellites with footprints and AOS/LOS
  • Live global earthquake feed from USGS with magnitude-scaled markers
  • Volcano overlay and tectonic plate boundaries (toggleable)
  • Real-time grayline day/night terminator
  • QTH-based local weather and alerts in station tooltip
  • CelesTrak live TLE refresh — embedded fallback when offline
  • Global city clocks with UTC reference
Guardian glyph
Guardian
v1.0

Space weather, propagation, and signal-environment awareness in one always-on dashboard.

Built for
Operators, communicators, educators, preparedness users, and radio hobbyists who need live space-weather conditions, propagation context, and satellite timing at a single glance.
  • Full NOAA/SWPC dashboard — Kp index, SFI, solar flux, solar wind
  • IMF Bt/Bz, D-RAP, particle flux, radio blackout forecast
  • HF propagation conditions, MUF/foF2 indicators, and signal-environment context
  • Aurora status and geomagnetic activity
  • Station context with satellite tracking and AOS/LOS
  • Custom satellite entry by NORAD ID or TLE
  • Custom ticker with up to 5 live RSS/XML feeds
Capabilities

The right tool for your mission

Both tools run offline-first from a single HTML file. The difference is what each one was engineered to make visible.

Designed Together
Two tools.
One operational picture.

Sentinel and Guardian are designed to stand on their own while covering different parts of the same situational-awareness problem.

🛰️
Complementary by design.

Sentinel keeps Earth activity, orbital context, local conditions, and timing visible.

Guardian concentrates on space weather, propagation, signal conditions, and station context.

Use either independently, or use both when you want a broader operational view.
