If it’s flat
There’s an edge
Done
not necessarily
You have to prove the earth curves.
I did
how can something be shaped like a disc yet not have an edge
you assume it is necessarily a disk
And as some postulate, if you think there’s curve at the surface, you can’t defend yourself when we elevate, and whatever curve you thought you saw disappears.
If I am in the USA and walk a perfect straight line for an enough amount of length
I will o back to the USA
Go
Not encountering any edges
Straight line you say..
What’s these lines
Planes?
What if we throw the earth into the sun like a frisbee
what lines
You wouldn’t walk an actual ‘straight line’ around the earth.
You’d be doing a large circle.
Yeah
?
I mean that
mean what
if you are responding to whoever that is i have them blocked
I walk a line that curves very slowly but I will eventually turn 360 degrees
Around earth
yes
a straight line on a sphere is a thing
I’m responding to him u blocked
C
Whatever, since this chat is not moderated, I’m not going to bother.
its more general because in spherical space you can move in a straight line
its just called a geodesic
I’m in the USA, if I walk a perfect straight line for an enough amount of distance I’ll eventually get to USA again
The line I walk curves so little you can’t even notice it
Because of the size of earth and how long your traveling
because in more abstract spaces you need to define what a straight line is
all you do is define a metric in that space and from that you can derive a straight line called a geodesic
