Evidences Against a Flat Earth

Evidences Against a Flat Earth


We see the apparent size of the sun as fairly constant from sunrise, to noon, to sunset. This shows that the Sun is distant and far away. If the Earth were indeed flat, then everyone on Earth would live in the same time zone, because the distant sun would light up the entire Earth from practically the same angle. Also, the bottoms of clouds are lit up by the Sun, just after sunset and before sunrise. This shows the angle of the sun, that the sun is below the clouds. Since we know the Sun is distant and far away, the only way that it can light up the bottoms of the clouds is for the Earth to be a sphere.
