+ <para>
+ When the rocket gets a GPS fix, the Site Map tab will map
+ the rocket's position to make it easier for you to locate the
+ rocket, both while it is in the air, and when it has landed. The
+ rocket's state is indicated by colour: white for pad, red for
+ boost, pink for fast, yellow for coast, light blue for drogue,
+ dark blue for main, and black for landed.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ The map's scale is approximately 3m (10ft) per pixel. The map
+ can be dragged using the left mouse button. The map will attempt
+ to keep the rocket roughly centred while data is being received.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Images are fetched automatically via the Google Maps Static API,
+ and are cached for reuse. If map images cannot be downloaded,
+ the rocket's path will be traced on a dark grey background
+ instead.
