ESA has also standardized on the WebWorldWind platform, a platform ESA and NASA are advancing together, for the benefit of all!
<br>
<br>
The WorldWind virtual globe has been there as Open Source, years before any other, having been around now for well over 15 years. The mission then, as now, has always been to get the planet onto one-page for spatial data "because that goal will serve to organize
and measure the best of our energies and skills." [Kennedy '62]<br>
