I know it’s odd, but I wanted it not to be visible all at once.


FWIW, I really appreciated this. I think it helped add to the feeling of enormity, and helped me to realize the resolution of the video.


FWIW I don't think ‘enormity’ means what you think it does!

‘Enormity’ refers to severe moral transgression, like you could say, “It wasn't until after the war had ended that the German people became aware of the enormity of Hitler's concentration camps…” That's closer to what the word means.


I appreciate that choice, but maybe add a zoom out button to notify people that you can in fact zoom out, because I didn't even realize I could see the whole earth (Also, this made the 'what is that bright spot moving east to west' question very confusing).
