note from the bridge
why this exists.
i get distracted easily. the only thing that ever kept me at a desk was a video playing in the background. synthwave. ocean footage. a static star map on a second screen.
a flight tracking app gave me the idea. you set a destination, the vehicle takes you there, you do not have to perform consistency. you are just on the flight.
first version flew to mars. my wife asked why not real stars. that night i found the hyg catalogue and the nasa exoplanet archive. the rest of the app wrote itself.
the in-flight music is original, composed with suno and remixed until it stopped sounding like ai. logbook, hall of fame and captain avatars are in there because long flights deserve a record. ipad and apple tv are next.
