Hi all,  
I want to add an additional globe. Let me show you an example. The link is shown below…

> **[Cyber Threat Map | FireEye](https://www.fireeye.com/cyber-map/threat-map.html)**
>
> See recent global cyber attacks on the FireEye Cyber Threat Map. Sign up to be alerted when attacks are discovered.

About the image, you can see the square box which is at the bottom left. I want to create a rotating globe which is the same as the map… Is it possible???

Hello,

It’s possible, just create another div, style the position on the screen with css, and create a new CesiumViewer.

However, you may not get the best performance since you’re running multiple Cesium contexts, so make sure you’re being aware of performance in your application for both views.

Thanks,

Gabby

Hi Gabby,  
Thank for the great reply. I will take note of the performance.

Is it also possible to create a rotating globe by default. In other words, the globe keep on rotating…

Thank

Abdullah

Hi Abdullah,

One solution to rotate the globe is [here](https://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=Camera.html&label=Showcases), and click ‘View in ICF’.

Thanks!
