Converting WGS Coordinates (Latitude, Longitude, Altitude) to XYZ Coordinates

Questions
1

I need to convert WGS Coordinates into XYZ coordinates and visualize them on a globe, but somehow the results are way off. My Playground Example demonstrates the problem.

Some help would be appreciated. :rocket:
