Default Orbital Map Projection for Mission Control Center

Andre scribbled something like ...

Map Projection for Satellites

[...]

Such map has property: equal paths (on map and on surface of sphere)
for equal times.

For this I use a 'simple' program 'Orbitron' (
www.stoff.pl)
Others use NOVA for the same purpose...


Does Orbitron or NOVA have the equal paths for equal times property? Or is
it just a convenient copy of the traditional NASA Mission Control screen?
