WOW!!!!!!!!

I was looking up Online Orbital Mechanics Calculators with Google and stumbled into this.

Satellite Views (http://www.fourmilab.ch/earthview/satellite.html)

I happened to pick the Argos satellite from the list(a Star Trek NG reference, of course) and there was Australia at night! If you look right now, 2:38 EST(US) and hit the zoom out button, you can see the terminator coming.

Aye'll be back... B)

I never dreamed there were so many satellites. Seems quite dangerous were we to build a space elevator.
