Hi, there, it is me Mr Popo again XD Out of curiosity, are there any nuffians who believe that the earth is flat? if there is any, can you tell me why you think so? just give me your best explanation as I want to know why you think so or pm your answer if you want, I like knowing these different types of views and theories whether right or wrong XD
The earths a "oblate spheroid" if i remember correctly. I guess its called that cause its a sphere but it has bumps and dents and shit due to having oceans and mountains. I remember this cause of a joe rogan interview but i might be wrong
Earth is a SQUARE!!! Or may a Triangle? Possibly a Dodecahedron... or maybe a Diamond? Infinity Loop?
If you believe the Earth is flat, then you'd also have to believe that you exist on an infinite plane as in flat surface yet in space you'd still have to believe in globes. Which makes your belief asinine, if all planets or celestial bodies are spherical in shape then it's only logical that Earth is spherical as well. And the closest example we have of this is the Moon. But if we go back to believing in a Flat Earth, then you'd have to believe in an infinite flat plane Earth and that Earth has an infinite mass because you'd have to believe in Earth's infinite materials as it would repeat which would mean an infinite gravity which makes it asinine in that we would be paste then. You'd have to do away with Newton's law. Which is stupid If we go back to believing in a Flat Earth, then you'd have to believe in an infinite repetition of space and if that were the case we'd be able to see them repeating from the same location you're standing in at night. If we go back to believing in a Flat Earth, then you'd have to do away in believing in the Horizon and in the Sunset as well as Sunrise. As I said, it's asinine. If you use your imagination to simulate such cases they would vastly differ from reality. Globes also give accurate depictions of Earth's geography, while maps construe them. Maps being somewhat accurate in relation to taking in all of Earth's scale. But in smaller scales it would help in routing and such other cases.
The earth is a very smooth sphere with a slightly fatter middle section due to its rotation. Honestly not sure how someone can look at satellite images of their own house on think the shape of the planet isn't legit. Pretty sure none of those people are here though.
If anyone ever tells you the earth is flat, ask them where you can get tickets to see the greatest of all tourist attractions, ‘the edge of the world’. If they tell you it is hidden by mountains, tell them you are perfectly okay taking an airplane or helicopter to see it. It is called an oblate spheroid because the radius at the equator is just over twenty kilometers higher than the radius at the poles.
One of my friend thinks the earth is flat. Their reason being.... “well we don’t see the world map being round so naturally the earth is flat!” ... will anyone kindly donate some brain cells for this poor poor child that needs help? This is a person’s life we are talking about. Please kindly donate your brain cells to #areyouokay. Thank you
Dao Friend's enlightened words were akin to the sun sweeping away the clouds to reveal the clear skies for this one. Many thanks for your treasured teachings.
Clearly the Earth is a disk on top of giant elephants on top of a giant turtle traveling through space.
And Death is your grandfather. And the Universe is Blue. Discworld was a nice series *Pat pat pats the hamster*
