That's pretty neat. I didn't realize how far out the GPS satellites were. Also, TIL that Hubble telescope was LEO. Wild.

Almost, but not quite yet. Hoping it comes in the next dev cycle.

No, but works fine in Rosetta emulation. And can use native libraries installed via for example the Intel Homebrew.

We do hope to get native aarch64 support in the near future. Let's see.

Factor is not dead, but continues to make development progress. If you're curious you can find more information on the main page:

https://factorcode.org

The latest release of 0.100 was September 2024, and we are getting close to a new release which we hope to do end of the year or so.

The cross-platform UI that Factor has works on macOS, Windows, and Linux. On Linux, it unfortunately still uses a GTK2-GLext project for the OpenGL widget that we render into, but modern GTK3/4 has a Gtk.GlArea that we need to switch to using which will improve the compatibility on Wayland. However, it works fine with even the latest Ubuntu 25.10 release.

And of course, you could use other libraries easily, such as Raylib:

I imagine package managers will start picking this up shortly since it just released publicly.
