This invention is critical in the continued expansion of nations and human settlements. Dynmap also plays a huge role in monitoring conflicts - everyone has access to movements of other people on the surface (the only exception is invisibility potion utilization).

One day, [[Fix]], the god of EarthMC, created a map of the world, thus ushering in a new era of prospect.

==== 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.

There were many space programs like the program "Kazakhstan" which first took photo of Terra Nova from space but it wasn't colored. On the first of May 2020, the [[BSSA]] ('''[[Kingdom of Baltic States|Baltic States]] Space Agency''') reports having launched a satellite to space and taken the first colored photo of Terra Nova - the same image shown in the infobox.

Although unconfirmed, a program under Kazakhstan is likely to have been capable of taking a colored photo; no image has been published yet.

The atmosphere of Terra has 3 parts: Groundsphere, Litosphere and RAS.
The atmosphere of Terra has 3 parts: the Groundsphere, Litosphere and RAS.


The groundsphere has a pressure equal to 1 bar. It forms 0-256 block.
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 257-512 block

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 513 to 700 blocks.

=== '''Pacific Gap''' ===
=== '''Pacific Gap''' ===
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 thinked 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).

Pacific Gap
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''' ===
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.
