    How do YOU know the sun is spherical? You never saw it from the side either

      It’s actually the shape of a tic tac and we are all just seeing “the tip”

      Is this the birth of the Flat Sun theory?

        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.

          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.
