Ben Pearson has set up Whereisroaster.com to let Tesla fans figure out just where Elon Musk’s Roadster has ended up in space, and how fast it is going. The latest statistics suggest that it is over 2,252,804 miles from Earth, moving away at a speed of 6,737 miles/hour.
The current data that I am using comes from JPL Horizons. I am very thankful for this wonderful resource they have provided. I now have a script that I run periodically to update the information files that I have, which will allow for me to track this object, to the best of human understanding, for some time to come.
