Bumps satellite.js from 6.0.2 to 7.0.0.

Release notes

Sourced from satellite.js's releases.

7.0.0

Highlights

🎉 Official docs site

🚀 Bulk Propagation API

Designed to bulk process many satellites and dates, this API is backed by C++ compiled to WASM, showing 3x to 12x improvement compared to propagate loop. See blog article: WASM: Making the Fastest SGP4 for the web for implementation details and benchmarks.

Note: since JavaScript engines are very good at optimization, speed up is not guaranteed in all cases.

☀️ Shadow calculation

Know if a satellite is lit or in the shadow; if in penumbra, know the fraction of Sun obscured by Earth, thus exactly how much light is coming to the satellite.

Breaking changes

  • BREAKING: Dropped support for Node.js of versions NOT listed here:

    • 20.19 and above
    • 22.13 and above
    • Major version 24 and newer
  • BREAKING: Dropped support for non-evergreen browsers.

  • BREAKING: Dropped AMD, CJS and minified builds. The library is now ESM only. If you're on Node.js that is listed above and use CJS, this doesn't affect you, because all current LTS Node.js support require(ESM) and this library works with that.

  • BREAKING: sunPos() now returns EciVec3<AU> as its rsun output, instead of number[]:

    // before
    const {
      rsun: [x, y, z], rtasc, decl
    } = sunPos(jday);
    // after
    const {
      rsun: { x, y, z }, rtasc, decl
    } = sunPos(jday);
  • BREAKING: The units of ndot and nddot fields on the SatRec object have changed:

    Field v6 v7
    ndot rev/day² rad/min²
    nddot rev/day³ rad/min³

    If you read these fields directly, you will need to adjust for the new units.

      import { constants } from 'satellite.js';
    const ndotRevPerDay2 = satrec.ndot * (constants.xpdotp * 1440);
    const nddotRevPerDay3 = satrec.nddot * (constants.xpdotp * 1440 * 1440);

... (truncated)

Changelog

Sourced from satellite.js's changelog.

7.0.0 (2026-03-24)

  • Feature: Official docs site. Because of that, Readme is now more concise.

See blog article: WASM: Making the Fastest SGP4 for the web for implementation details and benchmarks. Note: since JavaScript engines are very good at optimization, speed up is not guaranteed in all cases.

  • Feature: Shadow calculation. New shadowFraction function to know if a satellite is lit or in the shadow; if in penumbra, know the fraction of Sun obscured by Earth, thus exactly how much light is coming to the satellite.

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
