one could imagine a mass distribution under the surface that could explain everything we observe
The problem is...
Those are ancient pictures.
and?
Nobody knew (back then) what earth looked like.
no. it's the opposite.
people today don't
because they tell you that you live on a ball.
but when you take a balloon up to 120k feet
Now because of advanced tech (and NASA information) we know the earth is round.
you see this
Yes.
What about it?
wheres the ball?
where's the curve?
Are you using a PC?
it's perfectly flat. how many horizontal lines make a curve???
Its because of how close the object/ camrea is.
Its close to the earth.
it's 120k feet
The earth is huge.
You would need to be further out.
but.....globers say that ships disappear over the horizon
curious...
??
What do you mean?
it's so big you can't see curvature yet when a ship is a few miles out and disappears they say it's going over the curve
can't have both 😉
Ok.
How do shadows work?
what shadows?
The concept of shadows would be different.
uh...why?
the sun is very close and very small. that is obvious
