ISS Notification System

Some background, In 2013 I made some PHP scripts that run in the CLI (I've included them here if you wish to run them). There was one that would tell where and about how far away the ISS was from my location. It would also change the color of a Blink Stick, the idea was as the ISS got closer it would go from RED to GREEN and as it got farther away it would go from GREEN back to RED and then OFF. This was to make it easier to setup and contact the ISS with APRS.
The 2nd PHP script would tell how many people were in space, and which space craft they were on board at the time.
The 3rd script would give times for future ISS passes over my location.

For a long time I've wanted to move these scripts to an arduino, and I finally did that.
The D-Duino (NodeMCU with OLED) displays more or less the same information the PHP scripts did. I'm pretty happy with the formating of the screen. The Pass prediction needs some work - it currently tells passes in UTC time. And I can only display 5 astronuts. If you open a serial console at 9600 you'll see a bit more information.
