You can see them from the ground. But your video isn't really clear, so it's hard to say.

Done!

Where was that?

Their claim just makes mining bitcoin 30% more efficient, if true. We don't know if it is true. It does not allow for any decryption or invalidation of digital signatures. It takes a while to mine one bitcoin. So I wonder if it's just an optimistic interpretation of a small sample.

Planes leave contrails that move with the wind. https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=https://sitrec.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/1/Giddierone%20Contrail/20260303_003228.js Should be fairly self-explanatory. Right-click on a track and then edit the contrail options. Set the wind in physics...

There's no contrail rendering yet. Although it does not sound too difficult with a single wind vector. Is Sitrec very slow on your Mac?

Iran's militant and unyielding supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who ruled the Islamic Republic for more than three decades and oversaw an era of harsh internal repression and confrontation with the United States and Israel, has died following the Israeli strike in Tehran, as his compound...

Just getting ready. Any large event like this will have a lot of conspiracy theories. It helps to pay attention at the start.

Nice! I used that to create a view from Lancaster, pretty much a perfect match: https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=https://sitrec.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/1/Starlink 6-108 From lancaster/20260228_194759.js This uses their free path tracker https://flightclub.io/path-tracker, I added...

On 28 February 2026, Israel and the United States launched a joint attack on various targets in Iran. The operation, codenamed Roaring Lion (Hebrew: מִבְצַע שְׁאָגַת הָאֲרִי, romanized: Mivtsá She'agát Ha'arí) by Israel, and Operation Epic Fury by the United States Department of Defense, began...

It was 5:47 AM, not PM.

If so, then it's almost certainly A6-EPL, A Boeing 777 at 36000 feet. Flight UAE305. Going from East to West, and the angles match perfectly. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAhbQLAnGvY Notice how the angle of the plane matches at the start (flat) and the end (tilted a bit down to...

Is that IST? (UTC +5.5)?

View from Lancaster, CA, looking East, at a very exact 5:47:26 PST this morning. Here's the view from that phone. Source: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Opmn-RJ3pwlFOY-qGVqpsAlSKHFpiew-/view?usp=drivesdk Seems to move too fast to be a contrail. It looks very much like a rocket. But which...

It looks exactly like a plane. Can you give the exact date and time?

You had Terrain/Ellipse off, but the 3D building needs it on. I've enabled it. by default now. But I do see an issue with the camera looking detached when close to the ground (the ellipse/sphere discontinuity just made it more apparent). I'll investigate. That location gives better...

Can you post a link to the sitch? I anticipate several errors, but hopefully all fixable.

As part of the refactoring I did for this, I finally got rid of the local EUS coordinate system, which dated back to the original Gimbal sim, and now do everything (except local rendering) in ECEF. Meaning the origin is always at the center of the Earth, rather than some random point off the...
