After his retirement as Navy Officer, Joaquim Alves Gaspar decided to devote his time to the study of old maps and nautical charts, a lifelong ambition. In this talk, Joaquim takes us to the Maritime Discoveries era, a period in which people still believed Earth was flat -- and shows how cartographers and seafarers dealt with the geometric inconsistencies of the early modern nautical charts.
