I did wonder who made that dot, hehe, so it was Dusky.  There seems to be lots of dots now, impossible to track them and spot the new ones, but globe is working nicely.

There appears to be a dot in the ocean to the west of Africa. Is that an island of a boat? Be cool if the world map was higher res to see where the dots are more acurately.

I didn’t know that, today’s lesson learnt. Thanks Dusky

I noticed an “unknown country” appear on the globe today and the globe put a little black line above it, not seen that before.

The yellow dot above it appears to be the town/city of Accra.
There are no islands below this town.
Source, Google maps.

If it’s not on the map it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. Area 51Have we found another?

I think it may be where the Yanks intend to drop their nice new Orion Capsule packed with new, state-of-the-art technology. Oh, wait a minute, didn't they just chuck their Appollo Capsule's in the sea after use. Seems to me to be a backward step.  Or, I think, a much simpler explanation could be that someone dropped a very large Post-it note off of a boat.
