Yes, today April 25 is a milestone in the rise of modern Earth science for understanding "Who Named Earth?" Today, in 1507 at Ville St. Die France, the cartographer Martin Waldseemuller print the first projection of our planet to include the continents. The named America first appeared.
Who Named America? marks the milestone of humanity's understanding of planet earth in the rise of science, geography and humanities.
First, for April World Georgraphy Month, begin by understanding the word "earth", to recognize the Latin origin "Terra" for "dirt" or "land" ...
The 1507 Waldseemuller globe map is the first to depict the planet using the mathematical calculation of Amerigo Vespucci. The real scientific value is how his voyage(s) followed along the equator. As a trained astronomer, this exploration resulted in developing the mathematical formula for measuring the distance between planets, and thus the calculation of "la terra" circumference - the cornerstone of today's 21st Century projection - 500 years later.
The Waldseemuller globe map energized the imaginations of the 15th Century. Again, for the 21st Century, for Earth Day, celebrate by downloading the Waldseemuller globe map that named America to cut and shape into a ball of our planet. The map is again engaging the public to ask Who Named America? as a learning tool, and again, open local window to worldwide learning for the America500 Birthday Worldwide
