I've watched the Nasa select video on my local cable station, and
seen a shuttle/globe display from time to time.  The display 
shows the shuttle's position, attitude, and path.  The globe
is full color, with lines indicating the range of ground 
communications, etc.  

I'd like to find that program! :-)  

I'll take source code! Does anyone know if that program is 
publicly available?  Preferably from an FTP site.

I realize that the shuttle's attitude and position are probably
derived from telemetry, but I could probably modify the program
to use the previously given orbital elements.

Thanks,
