This image is a classic example of a **globe Earth**, not a flat Earth. The claim that the Earth is flat is false and has been debunked for centuries. Here’s how you can verify it yourself:
- Look at the horizon: Ships disappear hull-first, not just shrinking to a dot. This only makes sense on a curved surface.
- Check time zones: The sun can’t shine on a flat plane the way it does in reality (e.g., day and night at the same time in different places).
- Use a telescope: Planets and moons are spherical, and gravity naturally forms objects into spheres.
- Try high-altitude photography: The curvature is visible from high-altitude balloons or planes.
The image you shared is actually a satellite photo from NASA and other space agencies, which show the Earth as a sphere. Flat Earth claims rely on misinterpretations of perspective, refraction, or outright manipulation.
