And if you feel inclined, you can also overlay country boarders, locations (in Longitude & latitude) with tags.... Use an entirely different surface map to represent any planet, or even create your own.
I too have wasted a number of hours with xplanet !

And you can have satellites and space stations and hubbletelescopes all spinning around it taaw. I want a satellite webcam !
Owjer do dat den? I must say it's dedd spiffy.
It is, isn't it ? You reads the Manuel, you does. Look for the "-satfile" option.
On my Debian it comes ready molished with a couple of supposedly-suitable whatnots in /usr/share/xplanet/satellites so that you can just go, say, "xplanet -satfile iss" and it does the International Space Station. Thobut, it jbexeth not, but yea it complaineth mightily on account of that /usr/share/xplanet/satellites/iss.tle is Wrong. But if you look inside that file, it gives you a URL to look for an uptodate version thereof, which you copy over the one they give you, and then it jbexeth.
Assuming you meant owdjerdoo satellites, etc, anyway. If you meant, satellite webcam, I haven't found that one yet. 'sprobably only a matter of time though. I'm dead impressed with the downloadable-every-few-hours cloud piccies, I must say.
