This is a breathless article about something that’s obvious to people who know the state of the art. (I’ve worked in geoinformational systems.) If you want a map that shows the shapes and sizes of continents without too much distortion, and don’t mind having two circles, the Nicolosi globular projection is a thousand years old.
Huh. Well, thanks for pointing that out. I see that it is part of the collection they mentioned, but they didn’t count it as a two-sided map. Is it suitable for two-sided map? Was it used that way?

In any case, oops.
