NASA Mission Control

An immersive space exploration platform that goes well beyond a standard NASA API dashboard. Covers NASA's full mission history, real-time planetary and launch data, and features an interactive black hole simulation built with WebGL.

The standout feature is TARS — a chatbot inspired by the AI from Interstellar, complete with configurable humor and honesty settings. TARS engages users in space conversation with the personality-driven wit fans of the film will recognize.

Built with React and Node.js, integrating NASA's public APIs for live APOD, Near-Earth Objects, and mission data. Most recently updated to reflect Artemis II's return — watching history unfold in real time.
