Satellites for CosmoScout VR

A CosmoScout VR plugin which draws GTLF models at positions based on SPICE data. It uses physically based rendering for surface shading. This plugin is built as part of CosmoScout's build process. See the main repository for instructions.

This is a default plugin of CosmoScout VR. Hence, any issues should be reported to the main issue tracker. There you can add a label indicating which plugins are affected.
