Integrate Telemachus telemetry data into NASA's Open MCT.
-
Follow this guide on setting up Open MCT on your local machine.
-
Follow this guide on setting up the Telemachus plugin with Kerbal Space Program.
-
From the root directory of your Open MCT installation, clone this repository into ./example/kerbal
-
Edit the main.js file in the root of your Open MCT installation and add the Kerbal bundle to the list of dependencies:

Open Kerbal Space Program and assemble a ship
-
Put your assembled ship on the launch pad
-
In your browser, go to http://localhost:8080
-
Click around the Kerbal Spacecraft node to get familiar with the types of telemetry data available
-
Say out-loud "3... 2... 1... lift off!" while launching your ship
-
Watch telemetry data populate for your ship, while noticing the understandable looks of jealousy from family and friends
This package has been tested with:
- Telemachus 1.5
- KSP v1.1.3.1289
- Mac OS X 10.11.6.
Your mileage may vary.
I am not responsible for the death of any Kerbalians while attempting to get this to work. Use at your own risk.
I wrote this plugin as an example for those that would like to add new telemetry sources to Open MCT in a rare moment of free-time. I will update it as often as time allows, but would greatly appreciate contributions via pull-requests from fellow enthusiasts.
For consistency, please follow the contribution guidelines of Open MCT when contributing to this repo.
A HUGE thank you to the folks at NASA Ames Research Center for open-sourcing their mission control software. This is an incredible time to be alive. I nearly passed out with joy (also I had been drinking) when I had real mission control software running on my personal laptop. That's crazy!
A further HUGE thank you goes out to the makers of Kerbal Space Program and the Telemachus plugin. Great work!
