Ask, with tools
Answers read from live data
The satellite calls tools before it speaks, and every number it says comes from them. You see what it read.
Ask the skyA live orbital oracle
Ask the sky.The satellite over you answers.
Every active satellite, moving in real time from real orbital data. Ask a question and the one crossing your sky right now replies in its own voice.

I. The reading
Your question, their orbit.
The answer comes from the real satellite at the highest point in your sky this minute. You see its actual pass over you: when it rose, how high it climbs, when it sets.
The satellite answering you
First, where is your sky?
Auspex works out which real satellites are above your horizon right now and lets the highest one answer.
Your position is rounded to an area of about 10 km in your browser. Only that rounded area is stored or sent.
Your question
Ask anything. The sky answers in its own voice.
II. Auspex agents
Not just a voice. It looks things up.
Every answer is built from live tool calls: what is overhead, passes, cloud cover, launches, close approaches. The same tools watch the sky for you and plug into your own assistant.
Watch alerts
Say it, and it keeps watch
Write what you want to see. Auspex turns it into a rule, checks passes and cloud cover, and pings you before it happens.

Who passes whom, and how close
Closest in the next 72 hours: STARLINK-35524 and STARLINK-37808, predicted 25 m apart.

Plug the sky into your assistant
A REST API and an MCP server with the same tools, for Claude, Cursor and anything else that speaks MCP.

III. The method
An old ritual, real orbits.
A Roman auspex marked out a patch of sky and read what crossed it. Auspex does the same with the satellite catalogue.
Real orbits
Orbital elements for every active satellite come from CelesTrak, refreshed every two hours. Your browser runs SGP4 to move each one in real time.
Your horizon
From a rounded location, Auspex works out what is above your horizon right now. The highest satellite answers. Holders can choose another.
A voice per class
A navigation satellite talks like a clock, an internet satellite like a busy sibling, a station like home. It is a playful persona built on real catalogue facts.
IV. Look up
The bright ones, over you.
Upcoming passes of the space stations and other bright objects, and whether you can see each one with the naked eye.
Set your sky to see tonight's passes.
V. Orbital compute
Computers are moving up.
Data centres in orbit went from slideware to hardware. A sourced board of who is doing what, plus the next launches.

Starcloud
Starcloud-1 launched Nov 2025; two Starcloud-2 satellites planned for 2027
A startup that put an NVIDIA H100 GPU in orbit on its Starcloud-1 satellite and is building larger compute satellites.

VI. $AUSPEX
Hold it, and the sky listens more.
Holders get more questions a day, choose which satellite answers, and get alerts before bright passes. The token is coming; perks switch on the moment it is live.
