If the Earth is flat how does gravity work?
If the Earth is round, there is one force pulling everything to a central point (the center of the Earth). So how would it work if the Earth is flat?
Also, where is the middle of the Earth? Not the center, just the middle of the flat area.
In a lot of photos and in certain areas of the world... you can actually see the curvature of the Earth on the horizon. How is this explained? Finally, if the earth is flat, how can you watch a boat sail over the horizon? Now that I think about it... if the Earth is flat, how is there a horizon?
I'd like all of my questions answered please... I'm interested in this.
