What Target-Earth does
The camera is evaluated at the object and continuously aims at the Earth's centre. Object, Earth and Sun share the same UTC epoch. Earth orientation, solar illumination, station geography, front/back classification and the impact endpoint are rendered from that state. A private offscreen backbuffer is presented atomically to avoid half-drawn frames.
The desktop application is self-contained, uses a loopback-only local web server and opens external MPC, MPEC, station and map links in the normal browser.
