Method and honesty rules
- A project is listed only when a company page or a reputable news outlet describes it; every row links those sources and the facts they support. Values nobody has published (hardware, funding, dates) are empty, never estimated.
norad_idsare filled only from CelesTrak once public. Rows withauto_norad_idswere matched by CelesTrak object name. The Three-Body Computing Constellation IDs are CelesTrak's SCS-01 A-M objects, matched by launch date, site and count.orbital_computeon a launch = a tracked project flies on it, or its mission text mentions data centres, TPUs/GPUs or space computing.rideshare= Transporter/Bandwagon/rideshare missions.- Company names are used only to identify the projects. No affiliation with or endorsement by any company listed.
