projection
The earth's gravity field makes everything push into the earth like a bubble arround the planet. This makes it seem like the earth is flat.
that the earth was not flat nor square but it was round
An oblate spheroid.
Cartographers an represent the spherical Earth on flat paper by making a projection, which is like casting shadows from the spherical world onto a flat piece of paper.
The Flat Earth hypothesis was proven wrong through various scientific observations and experiments that demonstrated the Earth is round. For example, observations of the Earth's shape during lunar eclipses, satellite imagery, and circumnavigation expeditions provided evidence for the Earth's spherical shape. Additionally, space exploration and photographs of the Earth from space further solidified our understanding of the Earth's round shape.
That would be an Atlas.
A flat map that represents a portion of the round earth is called a "map projection". Map projections are used to display the three-dimensional earth on a two-dimensional surface, like a paper map.
No, a globe is defined as a three-dimensional representation of Earth, which is a spherical shape. The whole purpose of a globe is to accurately represent the round shape of the Earth, so it cannot be flat.
Cartographers use a projection method to show the round Earth on a flat surface. Different types of map projections, such as Mercator or Robinson, are used to represent the Earth's curved surface in two dimensions while minimizing distortion of shape, area, distance, or direction.
It is difficult to determine an exact number, but the flat earth belief is considered a fringe theory with a small number of adherents compared to the majority who accept the round earth scientific consensus. Social media and online platforms have helped amplify their visibility, but they do not represent a significant portion of the population.
A system of mapping the round earth on a flat surface is called a map projection. Map projections are used to represent the Earth's curved surface on a two-dimensional map. Different map projections have different strengths and weaknesses depending on the purpose of the map.
A map projection is a way to represent the curved surface of the Earth on the flat surface of a map.
Its called a projection map
round
The Earth was never flat. The Flat Earth society believe they have proof that the Earth is flat but other no individuals or organisations have ever seriously considered that the Earth was not round since the ancient Greeks.
Round is an infinitely more efficient design to accommodate the rotations, orbits and movements of the planets and galaxies. Can't imagine a "flat-disk" planet-design doing (or trying to do) what the round, circular design does.
Yes, it is. Satellite imaging will negate the hypothesis and prove that Earth is round, not flat.
