Default Digital world map for travel

selected a link (http://www.fourmilab.ch/earthview/vlatlon.html) latitude
longitude altitude from the front page, and set altitude to 1000km over 65w
45n for image and it showed light streaks on what I know to be H102, nothing
else around this is Nova Scotia everything closes at 10pm, and I spend most
nights awake, its daytime back in Aus, where all the family are, still not
used to timezone changes
