To think we are able to do such things is just amazing. Yet I still get lint in my belly button. An uncontrollable force of nature yet to be conquered.

Thank you. I used a NASA site for this but this one is actually easier to use. The NASA sight is really cool with the visuals though.
Everyone on the board should try this one. Click on J-TRACk 3D.
A little window opens up and click on it and fiddle around then let the pure awesomeness begin:
