I am not sorry and I will do it again.

But on a more serious note, while my use of live ISS telemetry is probably about as maximally frivolous as can get, it's nothing short of amazing that this sort of abject silliness is not only possible but actually trivial to pull off. So hats off to you and the rest of the hard-working folks at NASA (et al) who made it possible in the first place.

And yes there's definitely all kinds of interesting telemetry available from the ISS. Seeing the dashboard that the ISS mimic project has was quite an eye-opener



Thousands of people are today learning about these metrics thanks to your funny project. And from that, someone else will also make something cool and useful.


I'm going to add "science communicator" to my résumé.

But yes, the app may be a joke but at least there's something there beneath the joke.


In jest but this is a good example of how spending a bit of time on APIs and metrics and so on is buying an option on creativity in the future
