What you can do with this MCP connector
You gotta use the KeepTrack Space Intelligence - Track Orbital Data MCP server to search satellite inventories, track orbital debris, and monitor the most recent space launches. Your AI agent pulls detailed metadata—like NORAD IDs, country of origin, and launch dates—for any space object, letting you analyze orbital mechanics and check the status of specific constellations like Starlink, all just by talking to it.
To search for satellites and orbital debris, you'll use search_satellites. You can throw a keyword or a name at it, and it'll search the whole database for what you're looking for, narrowing down the scope for you.
If you know exactly which satellite you're dealing with, you'll use get_satellite_details. That tool grabs all the comprehensive metadata for a specific satellite, giving you its origin and orbit type.
To keep tabs on what's happening up there, you'll use get_recent_space_launches. This tool retrieves a list of the most recently launched space objects, keeping you current on space operations.
How KeepTrack Space Intelligence MCP Works
- 1 Subscribe to the KeepTrack server on Vinkius. No API key is required for public access.
- 2 Connect your preferred AI client (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to the KeepTrack MCP endpoint.
- 3 Instruct your agent to perform a task (e.g., 'What are the latest launches?' or 'Find Starlink details'). The agent executes the necessary tool calls.
The bottom line is, your AI client talks to the server, and the server runs the database queries for you.
Who Is KeepTrack Space Intelligence MCP For?
This is for aerospace engineers, data scientists, and telecom analysts who need real-time, structured data about space objects. If you spend time manually checking orbital databases or stitching together launch reports, this saves you hours of cross-referencing.
Verifies satellite records and tracks orbital status for projects, needing precise metadata like NORAD IDs.
Tracks commercial and government satellite assets, monitoring constellations like Starlink and GPS.
Accesses reliable, structured orbital metadata to build models or analyze space object distributions.
Identifies objects passing overhead or researches space history and orbital mechanics.
What Changes When You Connect
- Access live orbital data without complex API calls. Use the
search_satellitestool to narrow down object inventories by name or keyword. - Get deep technical specs for any asset. The
get_satellite_detailstool provides comprehensive metadata, like NORAD IDs and country of origin, instantly. - Keep track of space events.
get_recent_space_launchesquickly gives you a list of the latest objects deployed into orbit, keeping your timeline current. - Analyze specific constellations. You can monitor complex groups, like Starlink or GPS, making orbital auditing straightforward.
- Streamline data retrieval. Your agent handles the multi-step process—search first, then detail—so you don't have to manage multiple endpoints.
- Avoid fragmented data. This server consolidates information on debris, satellites, and launches into one conversational source.
Real-World Use Cases
Investigating a New Constellation
An analyst needs to verify the status of a new satellite group. Instead of checking multiple government portals, they ask their agent to run search_satellites for the name. Then, they ask the agent to run get_satellite_details on a specific ID. The agent pulls the metadata, letting the analyst confirm the asset's NORAD ID and country of origin immediately.
Forecasting Debris Impact
A researcher needs to understand the current debris environment. They ask the agent to first run get_recent_space_launches to establish the timeline. Then, they ask the agent to search for specific debris objects using search_satellites. The agent pulls both the recent launch data and the debris records, allowing the researcher to map potential collision vectors.
Building a Mission Timeline
A project manager needs a quick overview of recent activity. They ask the agent to list the last 10 launches using get_recent_space_launches. Next, they follow up, asking for the details of the most important satellite from that list. The agent runs get_satellite_details, giving the manager a complete, actionable report without leaving the chat.
Auditing a Known Asset
A telecom company needs to verify the operational status of a specific satellite. They use search_satellites to confirm the asset's existence. They then use get_satellite_details to pull the most recent orbit type and operational data, confirming the asset's status against industry standards.
The Tradeoffs
Trying to find everything in one prompt
I need to know about Starlink, the latest launches, and debris from 2022. Tell me everything.
→
Start by limiting the scope. First, ask the agent to run search_satellites for 'Starlink'. Next, ask the agent to run get_recent_space_launches to set the timeline. Finally, ask the agent to run get_satellite_details on a specific asset ID to get the deep dive you need.
Only listing known assets
I only know the name 'Hubble'. What is its current status?
→
Use search_satellites first. This confirms the asset's existence and provides its core metadata. Then, use get_satellite_details to get the latest orbit or operational information.
Assuming launch data is sufficient
Just give me the list of recent launches.
→
Use get_recent_space_launches to get the list. Then, if you need specifics on any object listed, run get_satellite_details using the object's NORAD ID to get the full technical picture.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this server if your primary goal is structured, verifiable orbital data. You need to know what is in space, where it is, and when it got there. This is for technical verification, not general curiosity. If you are an engineer checking a NORAD ID or a telecom analyst tracking a specific constellation, this is your tool. Don't use this if you just need general space news or history—that's a search engine job. If you need to combine launch data with other non-space data (like financial reports), you'll need a different data integration tool, not just a space intelligence server.

Available Capabilities
Checking orbital data used to involve jumping between multiple government and commercial databases.
Manually tracking a satellite's metadata requires opening the NORAD catalog, checking the launch history site, and cross-referencing the object's current orbital parameters. You spend time copying IDs, switching tabs, and waiting for different data sources to sync up. It's slow and prone to human error.
With KeepTrack Space Intelligence, your agent does the heavy lifting. You simply ask, 'What are the details for satellite X?' and the agent runs the necessary tools (`search_satellites` and `get_satellite_details`) to pull the full record. You get the answer, instantly, in a single conversation.
KeepTrack Space Intelligence MCP Server: Track Space Assets
Before, gathering a complete picture of the current space environment meant running separate reports for recent launches and then individually querying each asset for its orbital status. This created a massive, fragmented workload.
Now, you ask the agent to analyze the current environment. It uses `get_recent_space_launches` and then correlates that data with the full inventory using `search_satellites`. You get a cohesive, single-source view of the entire space environment.
