You still use a terribly old pre-beta version of JOGL 1, maybe released in 2006 or 2005. Please use JOGL 2.3.2. JOGL 1 is no longer maintained.

You should look at the OpenGL Red Book to learn the OpenGL basics, translation, rotation, etc... What you want to do is doable with JOGL but you need to understand OpenGL which doesn't seem to be the case right now.
