The Infrastructure Stack

Layer 1: Astronomical Data Foundation

Data Sources

  • JPL Horizons: 49 solar system objects (planets, moons, major asteroids)
  • SIMBAD: 60+ stellar objects
  • Total availability: 109+ celestial bodies

Data Quality

  • Ephemeris-quality positional accuracy
  • NASA/ESA standard precision (±0.01 arc-seconds)
  • Real-time query capability
  • Geographic adjustment for observer location

Data Processing

  • Positional retrieval from authoritative sources
  • Observer-relative calculations
  • Temporal moment specification
  • Geographic coordinate transformation

Layer 2: Temporal Computation Engine

Algorithmic Core

Proprietary algorithms that compute astronomical positions into temporal coordinates. The transformation is deterministic—identical input produces identical output.

Computation Process

  • Input: Celestial body positions, observer location, temporal parameters
  • Processing: Algorithmic transformation through proprietary computation
  • Output: 3D temporal coordinates in multiple representations

Coordinate Generation

  • Cartesian form: scale_X, scale_Y, scale_Z
  • Spherical form: radial_Location, polar_Angle, azimuthal_Angle
  • Geometric metrics: area, volume, distance, angular measurements

Performance Characteristics

  • Computation latency: <50ms p95
  • Deterministic output: reproducible results
  • Scalable architecture: horizontal scaling capable
  • Real-time processing: suitable for live applications

Layer 3: API Infrastructure

Access Method

RESTful API endpoints providing programmatic access to temporal computation.

Request Structure

JSON-based configuration specifying astronomical parameters, observer location, temporal reference points, and celestial body selection.

Response Structure

JSON-formatted 3D timestamp data with multiple representational formats and computational metadata.

Infrastructure Design

  • Stateless: No server-side state storage
  • Distributed: Geographic distribution capable
  • Cached: Common queries cached for performance
  • Authenticated: API key-based access control

Layer 4: Interpretation Frameworks

Framework Layer

Optional interpretation systems that apply domain-specific logic to raw 3D timestamp data.

9-Calendar Framework

Pre-built interpretation system consisting of nine distinct temporal frameworks, each based on specific celestial configurations. Applies observational logic to translate computational output into framework-specific temporal intelligence.

Custom Framework Capability

Infrastructure supports development of custom interpretation layers. Raw 3D timestamp data can be processed through user-defined logic for domain-specific temporal intelligence.
