API unsafe (HTTP instead of HTTPS) doesn't work on Github Pages, is there a solution for this?

The API that I used to get the names of the astronauts is not secure, HTTP instead of HTTPS, so GitHub Pages won't let me fetch their json data. Is there a way to fix this? Everything works locally, but not when I try to showcase it.

It's the API used in the JavaScript lesson for Promises, and it unfortunately doesn't work when changing it to https. http://api.open-notify.org/astros.json

This stack overflow might be something to try. I haven't tested it myself.
