- ball, it's a ballrobthelad
- Yeah, I'ma let you finish, but the earth ain't a globe. It's also not a sphere.garbage
- Equatorial diameter: about 7,926 miles
Polar diameter: about 7,900 miles
Difference in diameters: aout 26 milesimbecile - Taking account Earth's oblateness, if Earth were shrunk to the size of a billiard ball, its polar-to-equatorial diameter variation...imbecile
- would be well within the tolerances allowed for a billiard ball's surface smoothness and sphericity.
FYIimbecile - I wouldn't play a table of ellipsoids, all I'm sayin'.garbage
- you already do. in case you have no comprehension skills, that says the earth is a more perfect sphere than a manufactured billiard ballimbecile
- If the earth was shrunk to the size of an apple, the layer of air would not be much thicker than the skin of the apple.colab
- oh, and... https://www.qbn.com/…imbecile
- I um, was being pedantic on purpose. A globe is perfect spherical representation of the earth. It's an oblate spheroid.garbage
- But let's just be honest: The earth is doomed.garbage
- More accurate, humanity is doomed.
The Earth will keep spinningfuturefood - Ironically, most flat-earthers are globe shapedfuturefood
- If earth was the size of an actual ball in your hand it would be smoother than any other ball.monospaced
- And wouldn’t be measurably distinct from a perfect sphere. It’s so close it’s indistinguishable and the 26 miles is so small it’s inconsequential.monospaced
- For all intents and purposes, it is a sphere.monospaced
