Star Tracker without a Star Database
This tool helps satellite operators and space navigation engineers determine a spacecraft's orientation in space without needing an on-board star catalog. It takes an image of a star field captured by a spacecraft camera and outputs the sky direction (e.g., North-East, South-West) for navigation. This is designed for those managing satellite operations or developing autonomous celestial navigation systems.

Use this if you need to estimate a satellite's spatial orientation using star field images, particularly when a traditional star database isn't feasible or desired.
Not ideal if you require highly precise, real-time celestial coordinates rather than a general sky direction classification.
