The United Pixels of America: 8-bit Map of the USA by Ilamo David (@pixeldanc3r)
.
“We researched the most popular tourist destinations across the country and chose a diverse combination of experiences and attractions. We made sure to have an even geographical spread including attractions in each of the most visited cities in the country. The nation’s wild animals were selected based on those that are best-known, as well as geographical spread. Our map features all the major rivers, mountain ranges and key ecoregions of the country.” (Barbara Davidson)

The areas in white are closer to Germany than the opposite sides of Germany are to each other
.
We measured the longest straight line distance that can be travelled within Germany and extrapolated that distance to show how much of Europe is covered by this same distance.

Topography Sandbox, once more because it’s awesome.
.
The East Carolina Geology department takes The East Carolinian inside its building and reveals an interesting new tool that will be used to teach students more about the topography landscapes of land and water.
.
The goal of this project was to develop a real-time integrated augmented reality system to physically create topography models which are then scanned into a computer in real time, and used as background for a variety of graphics effects and simulations. The final product is supposed to be self-contained to the point where it can be used as a hands-on exhibit in science museums with little supervision.

Position of the North Magnetic Pole since 1590
.
Wiki: “The North Magnetic Pole is the wandering point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole.”
.
“The North Magnetic Pole moves over time due to magnetic changes in the Earth's core. In 2001, it was determined by the Geological Survey of Canada to lie west of Ellesmere Island in northern Canada at 81.3°N 110.8°W. It was situated at 83.1°N 117.8°W in 2005. In 2009, while still situated within the Canadian Arctic territorial claim at 84.9°N 131.0°W, it was moving toward Russia at between 55 and 60 kilometres (34 and 37 mi) per year. As of 2017, the pole is projected to have moved beyond the Canadian Arctic territorial claim to 86.5°N 172.6°W.”

The Flag of the United States through history
.
Wiki: “The current design of the U.S. flag is its 27th; the design of the flag has been modified officially 26 times since 1777. The 48-star flag was in effect for 47 years until the 49-star version became official on July 4, 1959. The 50-star flag was ordered by the then president Eisenhower on August 21, 1959, and was adopted in July 1960. It is the longest-used version of the U.S. flag and has been in use for over 58 years.”
