==== Map projection ==== | |||
You may wonder - how can a square-terrained world be a sphere if it is physically impossible to project a globe onto a flat dyn map? Well, I have a theory. The world itself grows bigger toward the poles (because of the 20-minute day warping the shape) so when projected onto a flat map, the squares would look relatively the same shape. | |||
If this is so, why doesn't it feel bigger if you travel there? Well, since you are further from the core, your body can strech further, thus, you don't feel the difference. | |||

=== Atmosphere === | |||
''There is no mesosphere e.t.c.'' | |||
The atmosphere of Terra has 3 parts: the Groundsphere, Litosphere and RAS. | |||
The groundsphere has a pressure equal to 1 bar. It forms within 0-256 blocks above bedrock. | |||
The Litosphere has a pressure of around 0.5 bars and it's really hot. You can't place anything above 256 - everything will melt. This sphere is often called the "Build Limit". It forms within 257-512 blocks above bedrock. | |||
The RAS or exosphere (Rare Atmosphere Sphere) is the hottest atmosphere zone. Here pressure starts from 0.5 bars and drops with height. It forms within 513 to 700 blocks of bedrock. | |||
The exosphere is the last of Terra's zones. Space begins here. | |||
We can also count the Nethesphere because the nether has his own Atmosphere (Nether is under the Overworld). | |||

== Luna ( | === Pacific Gap === | ||
''There is separate article about [[Luna (Moon)|Luna]]'' | When you go to "edge" of dynmap you will see... well just the edge. So how can Earth be round? When satelites like Baltica were photographing Terra, they recorded a black gap on Pacific Ocean (also, Kazakhstan captured it too but they thought that its camera mistake so they deleted it) It stretches form pole to pole. It streches into the core of the planet (it cuts nether in half). Here, air from Groundsphere comes into the ground (and (if theory 1 concept 2 were true) this would explain why you can see the sky in the void). | ||
If you happen to fall in the hole, the air will push you towards Africa, the grographical center of the world. The air carries you at a rate so fast you barely notice it. This is the same concept when you do "/t spawn" or "/n spawn". This would also explain why when you "teleport" it appears like you are falling through the sky. | |||
=== Polar holes === | |||
[[File:North hole of the world.png|thumb|The northern hole]] | |||
If you go to either of the poles, the same thing will happen - you will see a giant gap. It feels like the gap goes on left and right, but you are actually just going in a circle. Light refraction (due to air passing in) warps your perspective of space, and the hole being big itself helps this illusion. When the holes and gap meet, it looks like a corner. This is because the hole's curvature makes it look like a 90 degree angle. Despite all of that, some pictures just fill the hole in with ocean or ice. | |||
== Luna (Moon) == | |||
''There is a separate article about [[Luna (Moon)|Luna]]'' | |||
'''Luna''' (Moon) - the only natural satellite on Terra. Closest cosmic object to Earth; no physical contact has been achieved by humanity. It is in unison with the sun, so when it is day, you can't see the moon (and vice versa). | |||
When we see it, we see a square, but it is probably not a square. | |||
=== Illusion === | |||
We don't see the shape of Luna correctly because of the render distance on EarthMC. We just see the "top" - the closest surface of the Moon. | |||
The best example is when you stand on a very tall tower and look down. You can see a small square - a piece of Terra. Same with Luna's top.[[Category:Unique Page]] | |||
