A globe maintains the properties of conformality and equivalence. On a Mercator

Question

A globe maintains the properties of conformality and equivalence. On a Mercator projection, the North Pole would be represented by a line as long as the Equator. The northern hemisphere's vernal equinox occurs on September 23. At the equator, the Sun's rays at noon strike the Earth at the angle of 90 degree above the horizon twice each year. The Mercator projection should not be used to show tropical areas because they are greatly distorted in area on this projection. The scale of a map can never be constant all over the entire map. The circle of illumination is a small circle. The International Date Line is in the middle of a time zone.
