This map uses an orthographic projection with D3.js and Topojson to draw a map of India onto a spinning globe, rendered here with a graticule that is 10° by 10°.
The code for the rotation can be seen in the spinEarth() function. In this case, we rotate the lambda (λ) axis with every tick of the timer. You can make the rotation go haywire by messing with the phi (φ) and gamma (γ) axes, which are the second and third items in the array passed to projection.rotate().
