Surprisingly, several debates have been proven by science, yet the general public still argues about them. For example, some people believe in science while others believe in a flat earth. Recently, an astronaut shared a video of his time in space, proving the earth is round.
A Round Vs. Flat Earth
Spacemandu, a TikTok account, regularly shows video clips of life in space. A recent clip shows an astronaut waving to the camera before flipping it around to reveal a round earth, proving, we don’t live on a flat earth. “Someone said Earth was flat,” the video was captioned.
Further Proof
This example isn’t the only proof that we don’t live on a flat earth. Rather, NASA has been tracking and archiving images of Earth from space for around 2 decades. One example came in 2015 after NASA shared a stunning photo of Earth, in which it resembles a blue and white swirled ball. The Deep Space Climate Observatory satellite captured an image of an “entire sunlit side” from “one million miles away.”
DSCOVR Disproves Flat Earth Theory
“This first DSCOVR image of our planet demonstrates the unique and important benefits of Earth observation from space. As a former astronaut who’s been privileged to view the Earth from orbit, I want everyone to be able to see and appreciate our planet as an integrated, interacting system,” said Charlie Bolden. “DSCOVR’s observations of Earth, as well as its measurements and early warnings of space weather events caused by the sun, will help every person to monitor the ever-changing Earth, and to understand how our planet fits into its neighborhood in the solar system.”
