Africa is a lot larger than you think - and Europe isn’t where you thought it was. Boston’s public schools are introducing a different world map - arguing that the old one is inaccurate. | Channel 4 News

The Gall–Peters projection is a rectangular map projection that maps all areas such that they have the correct sizes relative to each other. Like any equal-area projection, it achieves this goal by distorting most shapes. The projection is a particular example of the cylindrical equal-area projection with latitudes 45° north and south as the regions on the map that have no distortion. --- Text: Wikipedia --- Video: The West Wing Season 2 Episode 16 [Video uploaded for educational purpose] | Geos

NEW DISCOVERY: The Grant Projection Theorem: Complete Generation of 3D Polyhedral Structure from 2D Harmonic Right Triangles Including Analysis of the 31 Uniform Polyhedra, Harmonic Solids, Grant Polytopes, and the Inner 120-Cell (see IG Profile for Paper Link) Key Conclusions (Short Form) • Three-dimensional polyhedral structure is generated, not assumed, from a single right triangle. • Euler’s formula emerges automatically as a consequence, not an axiom. • All known convex uniform polyhedra fo

In 1869, Sir Francis Galton created the world's first weather map, revolutionizing how we understand and predict weather patterns. His innovative system showed wind patterns and pressure systems, laying the groundwork for modern meteorology. 🌦️ But weather wasn't his only breakthrough. He developed the first scientific system for classifying fingerprints, transforming criminal investigations forever. His meticulous analysis of hundreds of fingerprint samples proved that each person's prints wer
