Est. transmission archive · updated daily
AEROSPACE
One frame from beyond Earth, delivered every day. Step into the viewer to scrub through a live filmstrip, land on any date, or let it pick something at random.
Imagery sourced from a public space-agency open-data archive. Aerospace is an independent viewer, not an official product of that agency.
What it does
A window, not a dashboard
A new frame every day
Each day, the archive releases one photograph or sequence, chosen from decades of orbital and deep-space observation. Aerospace pulls that day's transmission into the viewport automatically.
Travel through the archive
Scrub the filmstrip, move a day at a time, land on any date since the archive began, or ask for something at random from any point in its history.
Read the mission log
Every frame ships with a short written note explaining what you're looking at — the object, the instrument, and why it was worth capturing.
How to use it
Three moves, then you're exploring
Open the viewer
Tap Enter the viewer — today's frame starts loading the moment the page opens.
Choose a direction
Step with the arrows, scrub the filmstrip, jump straight to a date, or hit Random to be surprised.
Save, share, or zoom
Star a frame to keep it, copy a direct link, download the file, or open it full screen.
Features
Built like an instrument, not a widget
Liquid glass HUD
A frosted, blurred interface with HUD corner brackets and a live scanline — styled like an observation window, not a web form.
Live filmstrip
A rolling strip of nearby days loads alongside the main frame, so you can see what's next before you click.
Instant navigation
Neighbouring days are quietly pre-loaded in the background, so stepping forward or back feels immediate.
Full screen zoom
Open any frame in a dedicated full-screen viewer for a closer look at the detail.
Save & share
Star a date to keep it in your browser's favorites, or copy a direct link straight to that day.
No account needed
Everything runs client-side. There's nothing to sign up for and nothing sent to a server about you.
Questions

Decades. Pick any date from the mid-1990s through today using the date field, or scrub the filmstrip beneath the viewport.
Yes — the viewport, filmstrip, and every control are built to work at any screen size, from a small phone to a wide monitor.
No. Aerospace is an independent project by Araf Studio that reads from a public archive. It isn't operated or endorsed by any government agency.
