Shape of earth has been discussed and according to our common knowledge, the shape of

earth spherical. But according to a site (https://wiki.tfes.org/), it was stated there that the earth
is actually flat like a plate. Flat earther (people who believe in flat earth theory) discussed about
many facts that prove them opinion on that site. But too many confusing even mistaken facts
there.

“While they are not incorrect, believing in a flat earth isn’t contingent upon believing in a
deity or being a part of religion.” it said. It isn’t true. If we refer to the religion of Islam, we
can found on Islam’s Holy Book (Al-Quran) many ayat that suppport the fact that earth is
actually spherical. It has been discussed in surat Luqman ayat 29. But no only that, in the
religion of Hindu, on Hindu’s Holy Book (Veda), many times telled at there that earth has
oblate spheroid shape. It has been written at Rig Veda [30.4.5] and Markandeya Purana [54.12].
In the religion of Buddha, it’s also stated there that earth has oblate spheroid shape (Be cause
Buddha’s Holy Book is Veda). Believing in a flat earth doesn’t mean being a part of religion,
they said, but it makes people didn’t believe in their religion’s Holy Book(s). Are Flat Earther
analyze this fact before make a statement like that?

Flat Earther argue all of earth’s pictures that captured by NASA was edited by CGI and it’s
make all of pictures there is fake. The fact is NASA edited their earth’s pictures, but not all. It
is photographs, stitched together. Low earth orbit is only a little more than a hundred miles in
the air. If you want a photo of a large area, you create a composite (stitched-together) image.

Because NASA is in the job of doing science, and when it produces images for the public,
that’s just a bonus. In particular, the moon hoax wingnuts made a big stink a few year
back about clouds not lining up in an image of Earth. That was because that particular
image was designed to show the continents. Often, the reason is that adding a “wide
angle” lens would add weight and complicity for no scientific payback. Other times, it’s
because there is no color optical camera on board at all, and the images you see can only
be interpolated from the data available: Hardwick, C. Stuart. (2018, January 18).

How about day and night cycles? The sun moves in circles around the North Pole they said.
But if that system were real, sun will shrink from day to night. But sun is look like drowning
right?
The change between day and night is caused by the rotation of the Earth on its axis. If
the Earth did not rotate as it does, the day/night cycle would be very different or possibly
even nonexistent. The changing lengths of days and nights depends on where you are on
Earth and the time of year. Also, daylight hours are affected by the tilt of the Earth's axis
and its path around the sun: Murmson, Serm. (2018, March 09). Retrieved from

How about season cycles? Flat Earther said that when sun is further away from the North
Pole, it's winter in the northern hemiplane (or hemisphere) and summer in the south. It's make
sense, but what kind of force that make sun approaching North Pole and suddenly approach
South Pole?

The causes of season cycles is Earth’s orbit is not a perfect circle. It is a bit lop-sided.
During part of the year, Earth is closer to the sun than at other times. However, in the
Northern Hemisphere, we are having winter when Earth is closest to the sun and summer
when it is farthest away! Compared with how far away the sun is, this change in Earth's
distance throughout the year does not make much difference to our weather. There is a
different reason for Earth's seasons. Earth's axis is an imaginary pole going right through
the center of Earth from "top" to "bottom." Earth spins around this pole, making one
complete turn each day. That is why we have day and night, and why every part of Earth's
surface gets some of each. Earth has seasons because its axis doesn't stand up straight:
what causes the seasons?. (2016, October 27). Retrieved from

So, according to many facts were found, Flat Earth theory is actually wrong. I love how
they discussed about many facts that support them theory about flat shaped earth, but many
facts is incorrect also can’t be explained. I believe that Flat Earther are smart, but why they
miss many fact? If they make this theory on a fiction novel, I will be the first who buy and read
that. Life is never flat right? Just like the earth. Earth is never flat.
