What avail are forty freedoms without a blank spot on the map? --From a plaque on the Bridge of the NCS Atlas, from a passage by Aldo Leopold
Man always kills the thing he loves. --Same plaque, same passage.
Intended for low population rounds, the ant-sized Atlas is a cartography-themed vessel that's currently the smallest ship/station in rotation. Its designer, Goonstation admin and spriter Gannets, created it as a tiny but still complete map with a short compile time, so coders could quickly develop and test new features without having to wait the map to compile, back before Lummox's fixes significantly cut down compiling time. Though an in-progress version was released in 2017, it was left abandoned for many months until 2019, when it was updated and released.
Unlike with real atlases, any errors/bugs you discover or any missing items are actual mistakes, and you should report them in the Official Fixes Thread.

Directions on this page (though not necessarily other ones) reflect directions used by the map, which considers the direction the Bridge is facing to be northwards, somewhat similar to nautical directions. That means, while the ship is horizontally-orientated, north in this case is what we might call the right part of Atlas, while south would be the left part. West is upward, and east is downward.
