How do YOU know the sun is spherical? You never saw it from the side either
We're always seeing the sun from the side
The outside.
Well yeah
It’s actually the shape of a tic tac and we are all just seeing “the tip”
*conical sun theory
Yes I did. 6 months ago.
You mean 3 months? 6 months ago you'd see the same section, from the other side.
Anyway, the Sun rotates too, so it's not that simple (you can see the sunspots moving). But yeah, right idea.
Physics
oh so what's next? are your physics gonna tell us that the earth isn't flat either?
Of course not it's a cylinder, it has some curve and that's why people are fooled into believing it's a sphere
True. Have you seen world maps? They're rectangular. And it's mathematically impossible to make a isometric map between a rectangle and a sphere, so therefore it must be cylindrical
Right?! I don't know how people don't realize it. It must be academia and mainstream media trying to bury the truth
Trump will rename it and then everything will make sense.
