Saint Michael Sword: Are the cathedrals really on a straight line?

The author introduces the concept of 7 famous Cathedrals aligned on a straight line related to Saint Michael and the research hypothesis of perfect alignment. They collect cathedral data, compute geodesic lines, and acknowledge flaws in their methodology involving the spherical model and bias towards misalignment. They create a geopandas dataframe of landmark locations and visualize them on a Kepler map. The author also discusses saving and loading Kepler configurations. The goal is to compute the geodesic line between the first and last cathedral points. This ambitious project seeks to uncover the mystery of the alignment of these significant structures.
