Tweak animated globe hero: camera angle, speed, styling #77

Description

@rdhyee

The animated rotating globe on the homepage (PR #69) is a first pass. Capture tooling is in tools/ (PR pending).

Known tweaks needed

  • Globe sits slightly low in frame — adjust camera latitude or pitch
  • Rotation speed may need further adjustment (currently 15s/loop)
  • Consider starting view: currently Atlantic-centered, could start Pacific or centered on a data-rich region
  • Point colors match the progressive globe but could be refined
  • File size is 3.8 MB — acceptable but could be smaller with fewer frames or lower quality
  • Consider adding a subtle "click to explore" overlay text

How to re-capture

```bash
python -m http.server 8765 --directory tools/
python tools/capture_globe_rotation.py [--duration 15] [--frames 120] [--quality 40]
cp /tmp/isamples_globe.webp assets/isamples_globe.webp
```
