 Quoting Tim, isis, and Lunar from tor-project@:

 ''Tim'': Can we redirect globe.torproject.org to atlas.torproject.org?

 ''isis'': We could probably do this without so much effort, yes.  For
 fingerprints the redirect would be from e.g.:

 https://globe.torproject.org/#/relay/A10C4F666D27364036B562823E5830BC448E046A
 to
 https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/A10C4F666D27364036B562823E5830BC448E046A

 For searches it would be:

 https://globe.torproject.org/#/search/query=noether to
 https://atlas.torproject.org/#search/noether

 ''Lunar'': As far as I understand web technologies, the anchor is not sent
 to the HTTP server. So the rewriting can only be done via JavaScript and
 not through Apache.

 ''Suggestion'': How's this code?  (Please improve, this is the result of
 ten minutes searching on the internets!)
