How did Copernicus prove that the earth wasn't in the middle of the universe?
Galileo did not prove that Earth was not flat (It had already been agreed that it was round). Galileo invented the telescope and used it to prove that there were objects which did not orbit the Earth, supporting Copernicus' Heliocentric model for the universe. The Earth was known to be round by the ancient Greeks, but I do not who it found out initially (sorry).
Who was the first navigator who had sailed around the earth and proved that the shape of earth is round?
Ferdinand Magellan is often credited with being the first navigator to sail around the earth and prove that the Earth is round, although he died during the voyage and it was completed by his crew. Magellan's expedition provided substantial evidence for the Earth's sphericity.
Who stated the earth was round?
Pythagoras stated the earth was round
How can you prove that that the earth is a sphere by looking at the pole star?
how can you prove that earth is a sphere by looking at the pole st
How can horizon prove that the earth is round?
Horizon observation: If you observe a ship sailing away, you will notice that its hull disappears before the top of the mast, indicating the curvature of the Earth. Satellites: Images from satellites show the Earth as a spherical shape. Space travel: Astronauts have viewed the Earth from space and confirmed its roundness.
What scientific concept did astronomers prove long before europeans did?
The Earth is round the earth was round
What did Columbus set out to prove?
Columbus originally was determined to prove that
What scientific concept did Indian astronomers prove long before europeans did?
The Earth is round the earth was round
How can you prove a round earth?
You can look at a picture of it taken from space, or the moon
What was the reason for Ferdinand Magellan's trip?
To prove he earth/world was round.
Why did Christopher Columbus want to make a trip?
to prove that the Earth was round.
Why is boat at sea evidence for a round earth?
A boat at sea, alone, does not prove that is earth is round. However, boats can be used to prove that earth is round. This is because if the earth was flat, eventually a boat would sail to the end of earth and fall off the edge. This has never happened, so it can be inferred that the earth is round. Also, a boat can sail all the way around the world and end up right where it started, which proves that the earth is round.
What mathematical evidence can be used to prove that the Earth is round?
One mathematical evidence that can prove the Earth is round is the observation of the curvature of the Earth's surface. As one travels long distances, the angle of the horizon changes, which can be calculated using geometry to show that the Earth is not flat but curved.
Who was the first person to prove that earth is round and spherical?
cristopher coloumbus
Early sailors discovered a gradual change in postion of the north star this discovery helped to prove that?
the answer is IT HELPED TO PROVE THAT THE EARTH IS ROUND!!!!!!
Is the question the earth is flat a testable hypothesis?
Yes, it is. Satellite imaging will negate the hypothesis and prove that Earth is round, not flat.
