    In case you're wondering, "Kugelblitz" is German for "ball lightning" (literally "spherical lightning")- probably refers to showing the "sphere" (the Earth) as fast as lightning?

    Great ! I tried it on my apple M1Pro and it works fine :) I would not put the grid at first lunching and I'd like that the earth keep spinning a bit when throwing it with the mouse !

    Ah, doesn't work on Sequoia 15.8.x. I wonder what features my Mac is missing to display a sphere with data.

    > Kugelblitz shows the Earth and its neighbors as a globe and as an atlas you fly over smoothly like a pilot, even on an M1

    As if Google Earth wasn’t smooth on a 2.0 GHz Pentium 4 in 2009
