Just to clarify, I didn't mean to make it sound like I was upset it was Atlantic-centric, just that no matter what part of the globe it focuses on, the majority of the globe will be barely visible or not visible at all.

The rotating globe idea sounds interesting, but I don't know how much works it takes.
