The curve that is created from the illumination of the sun proves that it is in fact a ball. Flat earthers say that the moon is a flat disk. it should be directly overhead, but instead on the flat earth map, it’s 1/4 of the way around the earth, and not visible from Australia. This new map, a two-sided flat disk, was created using an entirely different approach again. The flat earth model cannot illuminate the night moon. Others are just having fun fanning out Earth like an orange peel. And there's also the problem of what would happen if a player accidentally threw the ball beyond the edge of the Earth, which would not only be the most complicated out-of-bounds ball of all time, it would also potentially hit the head of the turtle that everyone knows is swimming around space with the Earth on its back, and no one wants to upset the mother turtle. More recently, American architect Buckminster Fuller and Japanese artist and architect Hajime Narukawa both tried unfolding the world in different ways.

And you could throw that ball a lot farther toward the center of the disk if you were standing at the edges than you could if you were standing at the center because at the edges of the disk gravity won't have much downward pull.

Thousands of new, high-quality pictures added every day. For less freezing-cold viewing experiences, you would need to head for the edges of the disk - but sporting arenas located closer to the edges would make ball-oriented sports sort of complicated because when a player throws the ball toward the edges of flat Earth, it will go all wonky.Īccording to Business Insider, a ball thrown straight up would end up falling backward toward wherever the center of the disk is oriented. This flat Earth map drawn by Orlando Ferguson in 1893 is also considered the Bible Map of the World.
