Interface to 'Spectator Earth' API
This package provides interface to Spectator Earth API, mainly for obtaining the acquisition plans and satellite overpasses for Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Landsat-8 and Landsat-9 satellites. It is also possible to search the archive for available images over the area of interest for a given (past) period, get the URL links to download the whole image tiles, or alternatively to download the image for just the area of interest based on selected spectral bands. Current position and trajectory can also be obtained for a much larger set of satellites.

You can install the latest development version of spectator from GitHub with:
