Spacecruft Celestia Galmon

celestia-galmon is a set of scripts to retrieve Galmon GNSS data and feed it to Celestia for visualization.

The Galmon GNSS Monitoring Project's "goals are to monitor the major Global Navigation Satellite Systems, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, but also Space Base Augmentation Systems like WAAS, EGNOS and GAGAN. Galmon is an open source & open data project with a community of over 30 station operators running more than 50 receivers."

Celestia is a "real-time space simulation that lets you experience our universe in three dimensions".
