Description

Hello! The TLE data section of the API page instructs users to point their GET's to endpoints located within:
http://tle.ivanstanojevic.me

  • Is this a legitimate website associated with NASA? The domain, consisting of someone's personal name, feels very un-official
  • The section also states "Further documentation and response examples are available at http://tle.ivanstanojevic.me , which doesn't seem to return further documentation/examples and instead returns a JSON-formatted error

Research direction

Start at the TLE data section of the API page and test both referenced URLs, then verify whether the endpoint is associated with NASA. Done means the documentation no longer points readers to a broken or unverified source and accurately describes the available documentation or examples.
