How long is it going to take for the government to learn the term “open source”???

It shows the positions and orbits of a bunch of satellites, but little else. I thought there would at least be some detail of the Earth’s surface, but it is just displayed as a grey sphere. I tried Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer thinking that maybe it was optimized for one and not the others. They all show the same thing, but the drag-and-click doesn’t seem to work in Chrome.

It’s up now. No plug-ins. Need the glasses, though.
