Across Karman explores the importance of global collaboration in space technology, and Filament Games developed an interactive orbit page for this project.

Across Karman is an interactive educational web experience developed with the Wilson Center that focuses on space systems and global collaboration in space technology. Users navigate a digital orbit-based interface that presents satellites, orbital paths, and technical data to illustrate the critical role of space-based assets. By exploring how these systems facilitate communication, navigation, and environmental monitoring, students gain insight into the international partnerships required to maintain orbital infrastructure.
