ISSTracker live puts the International Space Station on your Amiga desktop. 
It displays the current ISS position on a world map, keeps a visible trail, and adds useful context 
such as daylight state, terrain, nearest city, update status and space facts. The application is 
built for AmigaOS 1.3, uses classic Workbench/Intuition UI elements, and fetches ISS data directly 
over plain HTTP.
