There are about 6 billion people living on Planet Earth today. Out of this huge number only about 100 men and women have actually seen what our planet looks like from outer space. This small group of people are the astronauts who have had the privilege to view the world from their spaceships, or from the moon.For centuries, the rest of us have relied on maps to show us what the world looks like. Maps play a very important role in everyday life. It is not only explorers, long distance lorry drivers and geography teachers and students who use maps. You only have to open a newspaper or watch the news on TV to see how frequently maps are used to point out the location of a story.In the past, some of the maps drawn up were not accurate; sometimes they even omitted whole continents.
