### Motion & Symbology Correctness (June 10, 2026)
- **Flights (commercial + military)** render one poll interval behind real time (30s/15s) and interpolate between two known feed-stamped fixes (OpenSky `time_position`; adsb.lol `receipt − seen_pos`). The display latency is an intentional product decision — do not "fix" it away. The whole fleet dead-reckons at ~12Hz (1m² write gating); aircraft get a 3-poll grace period (faded icon) before removal. When a position epoch pauses, both layers coast for at least 60 seconds of contact grace with an absolute five-minute ceiling. Source backoff marks each contact and the cockpit `STALE`; the cockpit then holds the exact layer position instead of continuing inertial flight. Repeated-position kinematic changes create a forward-only synthetic fix rather than mutating history, and grounded history is lifted only when no owned 3D model already controls its datum. A nominally successful worldwide OpenSky response whose own snapshot epoch is more than two minutes old prefers the existing 250-nm viewport-scoped adsb.lol fallback and labels the source/coverage accordingly when that upstream is available. If the fallback is also unavailable, the layer's freshness/error fields use the source epoch—never the cache receipt time—so the UI reports an old snapshot rather than “just now.”

The display latency is an intentional product decision — do not "fix" it away. The fleet dead-reckons at ~12Hz (1m² write gating); a contact already hidden behind the horizon whose last position still is re-reckons on a staggered one-in-13-ticks rotation (about once a second) instead, so the worldwide feed's ~13k contacts no longer cost a full pass when well under 1% are on screen. Anything that position puts in view, and any contact with a fleet model, takes the full pass immediately, and hidden-inclusive proximity queries read positions at most about a second old; aircraft get a 3-poll grace period (faded icon) before removal.

- **World-space headings at every angle** (`src/data/iconOrientation.js`): aircraft/vessel icon rotation uses the camera right/up basis per tick (alignedAxis always ZERO), which is exact at screen center and for orthographic/nadir views and remains stable through >180° tracked orbits. Perspective rays vary across the viewport, so off-center contacts at oblique pitch can diverge from an exact finite-difference window projection; a regression test pins that known regime, and field evidence decides whether to adopt exact projection with the basis method as fallback. Fleet rotations refresh on camera-pose change; tracked entities per frame. Billboards are horizon-culled via a shared EllipsoidalOccluder.
- **Military/OpenSky reconciliation** (`src/data/militaryRegistry.js`): known-military ICAOs render amber in the flights layer (60s self-poll of the cached mil endpoint when the military layer is off) and are suppressed there while the military layer renders them.
- **Satellites**: 838-sat core catalog (stations/visual/GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/GEO), tracking lands ~726km out via `viewFrom` (tracked entity owns a point graphic so the tracking camera engages), rings realign via primitive modelMatrix (no per-second rebuild flicker), optional `setParams({catalog:'dense'})` Starlink mode.

- **What it shows.** Events ▸ **S2 GhostMaps** draws the current edition of S2 Underground's KMZ intel products from `github.com/s2underground/GhostMaps`. The products are the Common Intelligence Picture and the 30-day kinetic pull (both on by default), the Border Crisis Map, the Iran Common Intelligence Picture, Iran Kinetic Events, Yemen FLOT, and **Latest Drop**: the newest dated incident file outside those series, `0_Archive`, `Basedata` and `Reference Material`. Each product has a chip in the row. The chip choice is kept in `localStorage` (`gev.ghostmaps.products`) and falls back to the defaults when storage is blocked.
- **Editions.** `src/layers/ghostMaps/catalog.js` (pure) matches whole repository paths per product. The newest edition wins by the date written in the file name, then by `Export_N`/`vN`. Undated names, such as the fixed 30-day file, are identified by blob sha. Files over 50 MiB are left out (the 62 MB census KMZ, for example). A renamed folder drops the product rather than matching elsewhere.
- **Event age filter.** One **Event age** switch in the S2 GhostMaps row applies to every selected product: 1, 3, 7 (default), 14 or 30 days, or **All** (every marker). The choice is saved separately from product selection in `localStorage` (`gev.ghostmaps.ageDays`); missing, invalid or blocked storage falls back to seven days. Age comes only from the placemark's `Date of Event` (or `EventDate`/`Date`), never from report, prose or KMZ edition dates. Undated, unparseable and future dates stay visible. ArcGIS `M/D/YYYY` dates with optional AM/PM times and ISO dates are read as UTC when no zone is given; a date without a time covers its whole UTC day, so **1d** still shows yesterday's reports. Events age out every minute while the layer is on. Narrowing the window only removes markers; widening restores them from the cached KMZ. An open card stays while its marker is shown.
- **Updates.** The repository is not ours, so there is no webhook. `server/providers/ghostMaps.js` starts with the first `/api/ghostmaps` request, so an install that never enables the layer never contacts GitHub.
- It reads the branch head from git's smart-HTTP ref advertisement (`/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack`, about 0.5 KB, outside the REST rate limit) every `GHOSTMAPS_POLL_SECONDS` (15 s by default, 5 s minimum). Failures back off from 15 s to 5 min.
- Only a new head costs REST calls: one recursive tree and one commit. An optional `GITHUB_TOKEN` raises the REST limit.
