Title: Satellite Map

This is brilliant, a 3D map of the Earth and artificial satellites updated in real time. Choose from Starlink, Oneweb or GPS at the top left. As you'll see if you zoom out, the GPS satellites are very high (about 12,500 miles up, amazing when you think you can receive data from them with a watch).

There are 5,504 Starlink satellites in orbit.

Wow impressive - and that's only the ones we are allowed to see.

Stepdaughter 1 is in New Zealand where she captured this image of a Starlink train over the South Island.
