Real-time Propagation: Calculates satellite positions locally using satellite.js and TLE data fetched every 60 seconds.

Orbital Predictions: Displays predicted future paths (Lead Tracks) and historical paths (Tail Tracks).

Dynamic Footprints: Renders real-time ground station line-of-sight footprints that change color based on visibility.

Interactive Tracking: Click any satellite icon to "pin" it, highlighting its specific orbit and opening the telemetry window.

Data Visualization
Floating Data Window: A dedicated UI displaying real-time Altitude, Azimuth, Elevation, Range, and Mode.

Visual Alerts: Satellites currently above the horizon feature a "Visible" blinking indicator in pinned info section (selectable).

Geo-Replication: Ensures tracks and markers render seamlessly across the international date line. Visual enhancement to selected satellites.

Dual Unit Support: Toggle between Imperial (miles) and Metric (kilometers) for all distance data.

Configure Views: Use the config sliders to adjust Lead/Tail track lengths and toggle footprints.

Close Data Window: Click the red "×" in the telemetry window or click the satellite again to unpin.
