Fractal Globe generates a sphere using an algorithm that follows the
principles of fractal geometry. The algorithm begins with a perfect sphere
and alters the distance between various points on the sphere and the center
to give the (imaginary) perception of height. Then the height is mapped into
various colors, coincidentally enough, to give the sphere a very earth like
appearance. Once the globe is completely mapped out it is drawn on the
screen for all to see.
