Using Terminal as Background
I don't know if this is the right place to put this question and it's a bit of a strange one but here we go. I was wondering if there is any way to make the output of a terminal window, the desktop background in macOS (Big Sur v. 11.4). I found a really cool GitHub repository (https://github.com/trehn/termtrack) that tracks satellites in your terminal and I want to be able to have it as my desktop background so I can follow the ISS throughout the day. I don't need to be able to interact with the terminal.

NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test Is a Smashing Success
Hi, I work on N-body orbit determination software for asteroid detection and planetary defense (for example, https://github.com/moeyensj/thor). Ask me anything.
You're right that orbit determination is unstable over long runs, and very sensitive to initial conditions. But the good news is that the solar system is big. Most trajectories do not intersect with the earth's location. So perturbing an orbit that we think has a small chance of hitting us tends to be safe.
Also, of course, after deflection, any object is going to be monitored really closely for a long time.
What are some alternatives?
