The issue was to get the location of International Space Station - Open Notify.
The International Space Station is moving at close to 28,000 km/h so its location changes really fast! Where is it right now?
This is an open source project to provide a simple programming interface for some of NASA’s awesome data.
I do some of the work to take raw data and turn them into APIs related to space and spacecraft.
