# Comprehensive Space Threat Assessment and Prediction System (CSTAPS)
The **Comprehensive Space Threat Assessment and Prediction System (CSTAPS)** is a web-based application designed to analyze and predict potential threats from Near-Earth Objects (NEOs). It integrates NASA's NEO API with advanced machine learning models and physics-based simulations to provide real-time data analysis, interactive visualizations, and impact predictions.
