check out:

http://liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov/RealTime/JTrack/

IF you have a pretty fast machine, click on "J-TRACK 3D" and play around. It shows *every* artificial satellite in orbit around the earth, *in real time* -- they move while you watch. Don't forget to click and drag in the window.

The ring of geostationary birds is particularly impressive. Did you know there were so many?

Excellent Newt cheers biggrin.gif

I did have a poster that showed all the sats in Low Earth Orbit but it got thrown away sad.gif it was like some one had gone mad with an etcha sketch & just drawn loads of squiggels all over a picture of earth.

Looking forward to spending a bit of time on that site mate (water on Mars looks like an interesting read for a start) smile.gif
