I built a real-time satellite tracker on a 3D Globe. It interactively shows 10k+ active satellites orbiting Earth, including all 6k+ Starlink satellites. There's also a timeline slider. You can drag it from 2000 to 2026 and watch space gradually fill up. Every satellite moves along its real orbital path, computed from public orbital data. Clicking any of them also displays its name, launch date, country, altitude, velocity, and live orbital parameters. For the backend, I used Tiger Cloud by @TimescaleDB. Claude Code connected to it using the Tiger CLI MCP server and provisioned a TimescaleDB instance directly. Speedcast already does this at production scale, monitoring 12k+ Starlink terminals and ingesting 20GB/hour of satellite telemetry through Tiger Cloud. You can read the case study here: In my setup, Claude Code used the Tiger CLI to: - Create hypertables for satellite position snapshots - Set up continuous aggregates for orbital statistics per hour - Pull live satellite data from public sources and build the full frontend Tracking thousands of satellites every 5 mins generates a lot of time-series data fast, and that's what TimescaleDB handles best. Its hypertables partition the data by timestamp automatically. And continuous aggregates let you serve queries like "average Starlink altitude over 24 hours" in real-time from pre-computed summaries instead of recalculating from scratch every time. Claude Code handled the full stack through Tiger CLI, including database setup, data pipeline, orbit math, and the 3D frontend. The video shows everything in action, and I worked with the Tiger Data team to put this together. Tiger CLI is open-source (Apache 2.0) and works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, and VS Code. To try this yourself: → Sign up for Tiger Cloud. It will give you $1,000 free credits (no card needed). → Install Tiger CLI: 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗹 -𝗳𝘀𝗦𝗟 𝗵𝘁𝘁𝗽𝘀://𝗰𝗹𝗶.𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮.𝗰𝗼𝗺 | 𝘀𝗵 → Run tiger mcp install claude-code → Give Claude Code a prompt and let it build Building something this complex in a single session means keeping Claude Code focused. /goal lets you define the end state upfront, and Claude Code works toward it autonomously across multiple turns instead of losing direction after each step. I wrote about how it works and why it's the most time-saving feature in Claude Code right now. Read it below.
