Description of Zero Degrees
Charles Withers explains how the choice of Greenwich to mark 0 Degrees longitude solved problems of global measurement that had engaged geographers, astronomers, and mariners since ancient times. This history is a testament to the power of maps, the challenges of global measurement, and the role of scientific authority in creating the modern world.
