Gold line: straight route on the disk. Dashed blue: the real great-circle route redrawn on the disk map. Distances on the disk use 1° of latitude = 111.2 km, as on an azimuthal map. The Moon next to the globe is true to size and phase, but drawn much closer than its real distance (about 30 Earth widths).
⚠ FICTIONAL ALTERNATE-REALITY SIMULATION
What if the world were a disk?
📱 You're on a phone or tablet. The explorer is made for a computer with a mouse and keyboard. It works here with touch controls and lighter graphics, but it can be slow and use a lot of battery. For the full experience, open it on a computer.
This is an entertainment and worldbuilding experience. It imagines a world where the Flat Earth model were true, then lets you explore it: a disk with the North Pole at its centre, ringed by an Ice Wall, with invented lands beyond.
None of it is presented as fact. The real Earth is a globe, and Comparison Mode shows exactly where this fiction breaks down: distances, routes and day and night.
