Open the pod bay doors: Sci-fi cartography

Inspired by Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, Odyssey's blurred, warm-toned text halos give labels a backlit look. Zoom into the map, and watch how roads emerge in a deep, ominous red, creating a cinematic moment of impact and suspense that recalls the last moments aboard the Discovery One. At the highest zoom levels, low-resolution neon-blue building outlines appear. These details draw from the imaginative interfaces that portray a past vision of the future.
