Summary
David Hodge built SatRadar, a browser-based tool that displays over 10,000 active satellites in real-time at up to 120 FPS by running the SGP4 orbital propagator entirely on the GPU via WebGL2 shaders.

I built SatRadar as a weekend project: every active satellite orbiting Earth, live, at up to 120 FPS in your browser.
The entire SGP4 orbital propagator runs on the GPU — inside a WebGL2 shader. The CPU does nothing per frame. 10,000+ working spacecraft, no debris.
