The Milky Way, in the Browser
An open-source spaceflight simulator in a browser tab. The Milky Way is the real one — 7,123 cataloged systems within 150 light years, the rest from a seed.
StackScope is a free public catalogue of indie launches. We find launches on Product Hunt, Hacker News and similar feeds, then crawl each site to detect its tech stack and score it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 23 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.
The Milky Way, in the Browser ships with the basics, with a thorough launch checklist, fast page loads, and clean crawl signals. Visible gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and tracking cookies set before any opt-in.
Launched on Hacker News on August 23, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2016. We've detected 10 technologies on this site, covering javascript library, ui library, analytics, and CDN. The stack includes Tailwind CSS, Cloudflare, and Google Analytics.
It's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 7,271 launches.

Readiness Breakdown How?
Performance How?
Indicative grade from a single automated render, not a substitute for Lighthouse or field data, and not part of the StackScope score.
Vibe Score Breakdown How?
| Signal | Points |
|---|---|
| AI palette signals | +5 |
| AI writing signals | +5 |
| AI code-structure signals | +20 |
This score is based on structural patterns and is not definitive. Many legitimate sites may trigger signals, and AI-built sites may go undetected. It should be treated as an indicator, not a verdict.
