What is the difference between a globe and a map?

Hey this is Lily4eva and you will be seeing allot more of me on this site and all of my answers are true! A globe is a replica and true representation of the earth's shape and surface. A map cannot provide an accurate representation of the earth's surface because it is a flat surface. (Try pasting a map on a globe.) It doesn't work. Maps use projections like the Mercator Projection to show the earth's surface but it causes distortions because a map is flat and the earth is spherical in shape.


What did Nicklaus Copernicus contribute to the scientific revolution?

Before Copernicus , everyone thought the Earth was the centre of the universe. This system was known as the Geocentric system (Earth centred). Copernicus discovered by stellar observation that the Earth was not the centre of the universe. He stated that the Sun was the centre of system of planets, of which the Earth part of that system. At the time of his discovery, the known planets were Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto had not been discovered.

And, it is tilted like the Earth on its axis. Physical globes can also have raised topography to somewhat indicate the elevations of the land surfaces around the world.
