Is earth is flat or curved?
When humans developed a way to record some information to
understand some behaviour of flood cycle, volcano behaviour or to know the time
to cross a mountain.
Geographic knowledge expand exponentially by European and Asian
explorer in the 15th to 17th century ,geography term
explain earth, and how its describe.
The art and science of
making the map are called cartography. And do you know that who the first scholar
to describe a conical map? Ptolemy is the first scholar who describes the
conical map to everyone. And after that we can get proper information, accurate
distance, and definite shape or area. There are many projections in mapping and
that describe that how we see a whole map, those projections are Mercator,
robinsson, van der gritten winkel triple and some other like conical,cylindrical,azimuthal like this.mercator projection is actually a centurion
old and it’s still broadly used.
There is lot of theories present nowadays about mapping,
that is how we see the world today that concept is completely different from ho
we this world earlier. We all know that the earth surface is not flat at all,
and how we can assure simply than now take a simple expel that you are in port
or you are in beach and you check a ship in specific way then suddenly you can
find that the ship is completely vanished its happened because we know that the
world is not flat.
Now tell me do you still think that earth is curved or it is
flat? Please comment below :}
