You’re looking at a 2D rendering of a 3D model. If the program was showing the earth with Maui directly in the center of the screen, then a satellite going overhead would appear directly above it, but if I’m over to the east of Maui, and looking at the model, it’s not going to appear to be directly over it because I’m taking a side view of the satellite versus a top down view.
