Fact-Check Results:
The Earth is not flat. Overwhelming scientific evidence—including satellite imagery, gravitational measurements, and observations of planetary shadows and horizons—confirms that the Earth is an oblate spheroid (a slightly flattened sphere). This has been the consensus among scientists for centuries and is easily verifiable by observing how ships disappear hull-first over the horizon or by tracking the curvature of the Earth from high-altitude flights or space.
You can test this yourself: Use a telescope or binoculars to watch a ship sail away. The hull will disappear before the mast, which would not happen on a flat surface.
