    This has been an indispensable resource in my career, to the point that I will frequently search for "<topic of interest> gunter", knowing that he'll have the best collection of information available openly.

    I couldn't compare it to other OSINT sources for satellites, but it was pretty good for looking stuff up when I wanted to.

      You may or may not be aware, but Java and JavaScript are two entirely different things - despite the similar names (JavaScript was more-or-less intentionally named to be confusing at the time...).

        Helpful mnemonic: Java relates to JavaScript in the same way that a car relates to a carpet.

    Gunter is very active on Twitter. Mostly anti Trump tweets.

    Hmm, this lightweight, special interest page is nice and all, but have you considered bogging it down with 50MB of JavaScript frameworks you have to change every two years, a few hundred third part trackers, and popups?

    It's making me a bit uncomfortable that I haven't had the entire page blocked yet to ask for my email. And where's the cookie banner?!

      Indeed :)

      This page takes me back to a different time when every person and their pet wasn’t trying to monetise their hobby and squeeze value out of my eyeballs.

      Bless you Gunter!

      > And where's the cookie banner?!

      There actually is a cookie banner on the bottom, unfortunately. Presume that's legally required.
