IS EARTH IS FLAT OR CURVED?

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 :}
