cool A panorama where the cameras were moved from place to place on the earth plus the earth circling around the sun resulting in no parallax errors!

As you know, parallax errors occurs mostly with objects closeby. The parrallax error here is half the earth diameter but that is problably a very small distance compared to the distance from camera to the objects.
At the same time, as most objects are points and not lines, I guess it will be hard to tell whether or not there is an error.
And when you think about it, maybe this pano is full of errors but we just don't see it
