Atlas
An atlas is a collection of maps; it is typically a map of Earth or a region of Earth, but there are atlases of the other planets (and their satellites) in the Solar System. Furthermore, atlases of anatomy exist, mapping out the human body or other organisms. Atlases have traditionally been bound into book form, but today many atlases are in multimedia formats. In addition to presenting geographic features and political boundaries, many atlases often feature geopolitical, social, religious and economic statistics. They also have information about the map and places in it.
Etymology
The word atlas dates from 1636, first in reference to the English translation of Atlas, sive cosmographicae meditationes de fabrica mundi (1585) by Flemish geographer Gerhardus Mercator, who might have been the first to use this word in this way. A picture of the Titan Atlas holding up the world appeared on the frontispiece of this and other early map collections.
History
The first work that contained systematically arranged woodcut maps of uniform size, intended to be published in a book, thus representing the first modern atlas, was De Summa totius Orbis (1524–26) by the 16th-century Italian cartographer Pietro Coppo. Nonetheless, this distinction is conventionally awarded to the Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius who in 1570 published the collection of maps Theatrum Orbis Terrarum.
Atlas (computer)
The Atlas Computer was a joint development between the University of Manchester, Ferranti, and Plessey. The first Atlas, installed at Manchester University and officially commissioned in 1962, was one of the world's first supercomputers, considered to be the most powerful computer in the world at that time. It was said that whenever Atlas went offline half of the United Kingdom's computer capacity was lost. It was a second-generation machine, using discrete germanium transistors. Two other Atlas machines were built: one for British Petroleum and the University of London, and one for the Atlas Computer Laboratory at Chilton near Oxford.
A derivative system was built by Ferranti for Cambridge University. Called the Titan, or Atlas 2, it had a different memory organisation and ran a time-sharing operating system developed by Cambridge University Computer Laboratory. Two further Atlas 2s were delivered: one to the CAD Centre in Cambridge (later called CADCentre, then AVEVA), and the other to the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment (AWRE), Aldermaston.
Atlas (topology)
In mathematics, particularly topology, one describes a manifold using an atlas. An atlas consists of individual charts that, roughly speaking, describe individual regions of the manifold. If the manifold is the surface of the Earth, then an atlas has its more common meaning. In general, the notion of atlas underlies the formal definition of a manifold and related structures such as vector bundles and other fibre bundles.
Charts
The definition of an atlas depends on the notion of a chart. A chart for a topological space M (also called a coordinate chart, coordinate patch, coordinate map, or local frame) is a homeomorphism 
from an open subset U of M to an open subset of Euclidean space. The chart is traditionally recorded as the ordered pair 
.
Formal definition of atlas
An atlas for a topological space M is a collection 
of charts on M such that
. If the codomain of each chart is the n-dimensional Euclidean space and the atlas is connected, then M is said to be an n-dimensional manifold.
'Atlas' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:

Quotes:
Steve Lombard: "Superman Saves Mission To The Sun"? We don't know that yet, Lois.::Lois Lane: I already write Superman stories before they happen. If you don't know how big the sun is, go away.::Jimmy Olsen: It's 333,000 times bigger than the size of the Earth. I looked it up on my Superman signal watch.Dr. Leo Quintum: Your trip to the sun overexposed your cells to solar radiation more than even your body can metabolize.::Superman: I see it, like tiny fireworks beneath my skin.::Dr. Leo Quintum: Your cells are over-saturated with power. Their bursting from within.::Superman: I'm dying.::Dr. Leo Quintum: I'm sorry, Superman. If I hadn't tried to steal fire from the sun, none of this would have happened.::Superman: Don't apologize. You couldn't have known.::Dr. Leo Quintum: But *he* knew. It was his plan all along. Luthor used me to kill you.
Clark Kent: Why, thanks, Lois. I don't know where my self-esteem would be without you.::Lois Lane: Alone, in front of the TV.
Lois Lane: That key can't be safe.::Superman: Why don't you give it a try?::[Lois tries to lift the key from the ground]::Superman: I carved it out of a piece of dwarf star material. It weighs half a million tons.::Lois Lane: So you're the only one who can lift it.::Superman: I work pretty hard, Lois.
Lois Lane: It all makes sense now. He's brought me here to be the mother of a race of super-children. Can't let that happen. They'll grow up and lie to everybody.
Superman: You stole that necklace.::Atlas: Don't you see? We couldn't fight the Ultra-Sphinx without help, so we let it chase us here.::Samson: But we meant no harm to Lois, I swear to living Zeus.::Superman: And I swear too. If she dies, you're both going to the Phantom Zone. Ultra-Sphinx, let's hear it.::Ultra-Sphinx: Question: What happens when the irresistible force meets the immovable object?::Superman: They surrender.
Atlas: Wait a minute, what about our contest? Answering a riddle is hardly what I'd call a feat of strength.::Samson: I agree. How about I wrestle you for her? Or is the mighty Man of Steel a coward?::Atlas: Even the shield on his chest is yellow.
Superman: Then we have a deal? If I win, you both leave the 21st century right now.::Atlas: I'll be leaving, all right, with the beauteous Lois Lane on my arm.::Samson: Not if I beat him first.::[they double arm-wrestle Superman]::Superman: I'm sorry, have you two already started?::[slams their arms down]
Lois Lane: My birthday gift's wearing off. I can't see radio waves anymore. I can't hear the stars singing. I'm tired and sore all over, like I've been dancing all night. Thanks for letting me spend a day in your world.::Superman: You know, I do other things. I mean, besides being Superman.::Lois Lane: You do a great Clark Kent impersonation. You almost had me fooled. Wait till I tell him about this.
Clark Kent: Gotta get away from him.::[runs from Parasite behind a pillar]::Lex Luthor: What's the matter, Kent? Afraid he'll absorb your cowardice?

Plot: The last man in the world is not alone. Well, actually, he is. It's just that when he puts on a play, holed up in a grand theatre with costumes, set and script, he has to play all the parts himself. Now, only the characters in his imagination (and perhaps his questionable acting ability) can sabotage the last performance in the world.

Mother Frump: [to the relatives in the graveyard] I want to apologize to you all, I almost gave up the old broom and fly recipe. I was wrong, I forgot the old family motto, "Never say die!" [buried relatives applaud] Thank you, well, back to the drawing board.
Morticia Addams: This is Mr. Grim, show him the house.::Grandmama Addams: He's in it.

Atlas
I'm a thousand people
From day to day
We are all airborne
Without ground control
I call my name
In the maelstrom
I'm not givin' in
So don't you give in
I'll be your Atlas
And carry our world
But I guess
I won't save the world today
I'm just trying to survive
And perhaps I'll dream again
But I will find my cross
And I will take us home
But I guess
I won't save the world today
I'm a thousand people
From day to day
Blues and so untitled
On the road to where
I'm losing my name
In the maelstrom
But I'm not givin' in
So don't you give in
I'll be your Atlas
And carry us home
But I guess
I won't save your world today
But I guess
I won't save the world today
I'm just trying to survive
And perhaps I'll dream again
But I will find my cross
And I will take us home
But I guess
I won't save the world today
I'm just trying to survive
And perhaps I'll dream again
But I will find my cross
And I will take us home
But I guess
