Inspired by maps that attempt to show*what’s across the ocean when you look out from the shore (like this one and this one), Andy Woodruff applies a bit more rigour (and some*geometry) to ask what’s across the ocean when you look out*in a straight line perpendicular from the shore. (The other maps simply followed*parallels of latitude.)*Follow a straight line perpendicular from a point on the shore of Newfoundland and you get to Australia (via great circle), not France.
