A globe that spins, using the "Flat Earth" projection, which is also called the Azimuthal Equidistant projection. Uses world-110m from TOPOJSON World Atlas. Inspired by This Is a Globe.
I'm actually really intrigued that there are a bunch of people convinced the Earth is flat. Have you heard of this #FlatEarth "movement"? This is the map projection they believe is True. There's a wall of ice at the edge and beyond that it's just ice all the way.
