2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!
Donations so far: $7608.77Goal: $10000

Summary[edit]

Description

I tried to recreate the "Double-Sided Gott Equidistant projection", a "radically new class of flat double-sided maps (like phonograph records)" based on two azimuthal equidistant projection of both hemispheres.

"Note: What is shown here are the two sides of a flat disk. To make the disk, just print this page, fold the paper so that the disk are front/back to each other, tape them, and then cut out the disk".
