How the map draws it

Lit as a camera exposed for its own sunlight would show it · seen from far off it is a light at its computed brightness: the glow is how a camera records a point too bright to resolve · its rings are at their measured distances, drawn 10 times wider and far brighter than they are so that they show: the real ones are threads as dark as charcoal.
