Xplanet is similar to Xearth, where an image of the earth is rendered into an X window. Xplanet can display several different map projections, including Azimuthal, Mercator, Mollweide, orthographic, or rectangular, as well as a window with a globe the user can rotate interactively. The other planets and some satellites may also be displayed.
