Live Independent Verifiable and reproducible Unpaywalled NASA-sourced

Astrophyzix Digital Observatory

Trusted for Asteroid News, Research, Data & Analysis

Delivering unpaywalled, evidence-driven analysis, public research tools, real-time datasets and monitoring and tracking of all PHA/NEO asteroids, comets and solar system objects.

Every tracking console is designed and engineered here. Systems directly ingest multiple NASA datasets covering over 1.57 million objects, then run live, verifiable probabilistic orbital analysis and deliver an instant deterministic summary of close approaches. Used by students, educators, researchers, and the public. Data provenance is traceable, verifiable and transparent. Original research papers are published on Astrophyzix.academia.edu, registered with official DOIs via Zenodo and academically indexed by OpenAIRE.
