    Remember that it is always half of Earth that gets sunlight. This illustrates how much of the Pacific is missing in this projection.

      There isn’t any of the Pacific missing in this projection…you can see right where it starts at the Bering Strait and ends in the exact same place. If this map were centered on the Pacific it would probably seem larger, but there’s none missing.

        Bro what you still think the Pacific is a real thing and not a random area invented by the government to have the world map look more satisfying

          Seriously. Have people never seen that part of the Pacific? Don’t just fly over it. Get out and touch dirt.

      It’s warped, not missing. Just like the resized continents are all there in full, just incorrect (relative) sizes.
