Stowaway

Stowaway is a browser-based 3D flight-tracking experience that lets you explore the real sky and virtually ride aboard aircraft flying around the world. Instead of showing only airplane icons on a conventional map, it renders the surrounding sky, terrain, weather, horizon, and lighting to simulate what you might see from an aircraft window. Aircraft positions and satellite orbits are based on real-world data.

1. Live 3D Flight Tracking: Explore aircraft positions using public flight-tracking data and immersive 3D rendering.
2. Virtual Window Seat: Follow a selected aircraft from a simulated passenger perspective, with views of the sky and terrain below.
3. Satellite Tracking: View satellites such as the ISS, Starlink satellites, weather satellites, and tracked orbital debris.
4. Realistic Sky Rendering: Experience changing lighting, stars, atmospheric conditions, terrain, and weather based on the viewing location.
5. AI Flight Assistant: Ask Roger to find flights or change your viewpoint using natural-language instructions; available to supporters.
6. Screenshot & Sharing: Capture and share your virtual flight experience, with sharper ground detail available to supporters
