When it’s at scale, they failed to rotate the globe and that irks me.
It rotates when I look at it. Once you manually move it, it stops rotating, but the rotate checkbox gets it moving again.
I’m confused because originally it just appeared to be a short animated gif on the post and if there was a link to the site, I didn’t see it. Currently the post has a missing image and a link to the site. Weird.
I have a bunch of issues seeing content from catbox.moe half tge time, so that might be it. The link in the post seems fine though.
Same here, the link didn’t have the globe, there was a blank box where it should have been.
Maybe we hugged it to death?
The link in the post was there from the very beginning, you probably just didn’t see it
I learned that the oxygen around the earth is about as thick as a coat of paint on a pool ball, relatively.
I’m not sure how accurate that is.
Space is about 100 km up, on a sphere that has a radius of 6000 km, so some 2% is air.
A pool ball has a radius of 30 mm roughly, so 2% of that is 0.6mm. Seems like a very thin coat of paint to me, but roughly correct.
A coat of paint is like 0.045mm thick
Not on the walls I’ve painted. I don’t know about pool balls, but I’d imagine they need a solid layer of paint too, otherwise they’d flake in no time with the abuse they get.
I was once told that if you scaled the earth and a glass marble to be the same size, the earth would have a much smoother surface.
Not take away the water!
That wouldn’t change the conclusion. Also, we probably don’t have all the ocean floors mapped out.
i really love these relief maps.
