These trees grow in the forest near Gryfino, Poland. The cause of the curvature is unknown.
How large does building has to be so the curvature of the earth has to be considered in its design?
I know that for small things like a house we can just consider the earth flat and it is all good. But how the curvature of the earth influences bigger things like stadiums, roads and so on?
This is the longest straight line you can possibly sail (due to the curvature of the Earth) Pakistan to Russia
Why do physicists continue to treat gravity as a fundamental force when we know it's not a true force but rather the result of the curvature of space-time?
It seems that trying to unify gravity and incorporate it in The Standard Model will be impossible since it's not a true force and doesn't need a force carrying particle like a graviton or something. There is no rush to figure out what particle is responsible for water staying in the bucket when I spin it around. What am I missing?
Edit: Guys and gals thanks for all the great answers and the interest on this question. I'm glad there are people out there a lot smarter than I am working on this!
Bonneville Salt Flats prove curvature of the Earth
The curvature of Bayley's 🍑 is just insane! 🍑🤯🍑
How the power lines at Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana, USA simply and clearly show the curvature of the Earth
Interesting curvature in the reflection of the tiles???
So, gravity is the curvature of space-time, but also one of the four fundamental forces, how?
Hello, so I got hit by this question today, and I would really like to understand this. If we see gravity as described by Einstein, do we still see it as a force? I might also not have a very clear understanding of relativity because I just know what I've read in books and on the internet.
Sorry if the question seems stupid for some, I'm still in high school, I'm 17, and very curious when it comes to physics. I know that these concepts may be too complicated for me but if someone could briefly explain what I asked, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks :3
Curvature of the earth. Taken from 52,000 feet!
You can control the curvature of bananas within a radius of 10 meters around you
Call me crazy but I may have discovered a weird way to help extend the life of your lashes and retain that band curvature? Slip them into the lip of an empty contact case!?
You can see the curvature of Earth in this photo of Lake Michigan
Curvature starts before the top of the ear! Proper round head. Tried something new from what I knew. Gave me a new notch to my technique. I love barbering!
Someone sponsoring the top Flat Earth advocates for a flight to see the curvature of the earth for themselves. And documenting it

When flat earthers try to convince me the earth is flat I ask them to explain how you can see the curvature of the earth from a HALO jump.
What are some examples of how we must compensate for the curvature of the earth in everyday human activity? I.e. calculations or measurements for construction, launching satellites, or any other common process?
Got a friend who has hinted at being open to the idea of the earth being flat. I’m trying to preemptively bolster some counter arguments with something real and relatable like, “if the earth wasn’t round we’d have no satellite tv, or we wouldn’t have to compensate for it in building railroads”(not sure if those are true, just tying to get my point across), etc.
Thank you!!
Flat earthers believe that our planet is flat but didn't ever deny the curvature of any other sun/planet
Each thing in our lives has been painstakingly designed by someone, from our cups to pencils to computers to doors to everything in our lives. It's amazing how much thought must have been put into designing the curvature of a plate certain way or how the shape of a soda can is designed for packing

Big waves, angle of attack, perspective... nop, just the curvature

The cause of the forest trees curvature is unknown. Gryfino, Poland
How do I make the text looks like is in the same curvature as the curved page behind? Not just curve but warp too to simulate the curve of the page, I tried but it's a bit new and complicated for me, please teach me!
Spent some time toying around with desmos, to make it draw a circle which has the same radius of curvature as the function f in the point x and which touches the point(x,f(x)). you can change f. use a to slide the circle accross the function. Hope you appreciate ^^.
Iron Throne for the Game of Thrones. A little bit difficult attaching parts to the back, part 1; watch curvature direction. And aligning/attaching final assembly. Instructions are very helpful.
The handel of my small spoons match the curvature of my couch
First flight on a 737 MAX 8, Beautiful British Columbia from above. You can even see the curvature of the earth
Due to the curvature of the earth, most people have probably never moved in a straight horizontal line.
Just something silly I scribbled while watching tv in bed tonight. I’d fix the curvature of the lettering if a client actually wanted it, obviously.
How do planes account for the curvature of the earth?
I once saw a flat-earther say "if the Earth was round, planes would have to dip their nose down or else the plane would fly into space." Now usually i could find scientific conclusions to some of these things flat earthers say, but i've been stumped on this one. I would think that if it does nothing then the world really might be flat but I know it's not. I might be overthinking this but please, i'd like an answer to this. Thanks!
[Request] Approximately how many miles of curvature are visible in this video from the top left to bottom right?

Flat-earthers should be raised high enough to see the curvature of Earth
Then simply dropped from there if they refuse to believe their own eyes.
Aleksei Leonov: Below me our sky-blue planet drifted by. It did not look round but completely flat, like a giant physical map. Only the curvature of the horizon showed that it was round. Everything about me looked like a scene from a science fiction film.

The curvature of the Earth is visible in this 2014 photo, which ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti snapped from the International Space Station
The curvature of my cornea's are wack. Optometrist said glasses won't help.
Kick them so hard they see the curvature of the Earth
You can actually see the curvature of the earth from FL400 already. Take that flat-earthers
#jollygreenscott91 .. Ship `sinks` behind the curvature of Earth or falls off the edge of flat Earth?

B-24 Liberator. Quite a bit of shaping. Used 7/16 dowel for the upper body/cabin pieces for the top. All wingtips and other minor points were freehand. Test fit belly pieces to determine bottom curvatures, installing them later. Can be posed on the stand. DXXI
Cc = - 0.07849.D^2 meter. This is curvature of the earth error. Mathematical proof the earth is round.
When you measure distances on earth, instruments take level measurements. If you take a measurement on a basketball with a flat ruler you can see that it's hard to do, particularly with elevations. As the ruler measurements get farther, the more it moves away from the basketball. Your elevations need a little shaved off for every bit of distance you take (hence the negative sign). These numbers are different for feet but it's the same idea.
The same is true for earth. If you do not account for this error, your elevation measurements are off and you'll have all sorts of problems. I'm a civil engineering student and have taken 3 surveying courses. This is common knowledge for anyone who's job involves surveying, GIS or map-making.
I'm also saying this because I was watching live Snooker on YouTube for the China Open qualifiers and some wingnut in the chat was going on and on about flat earth so I told him how I actually took surveying courses and unless we accounted for curvature and refraction errors, our measurements would be wrong. He just ignored me and kept recommending some YouTube videos.
Anyway so I thought I'd pass along if you ever encounter one of these flat earth people in the wild, tell them about the curvature of the earth error and how every large structure they've ever been in takes it into account. You will likely be ignored but to me that essentially proves they are not interested in mathematical facts, only narrative.
Sorry if this has been posted 45 times before.
This is an excellent experiment by Stephen Hawking showing the curvature of the earth. The best part is that anyone doubting it can do the test with the help of a few friends and some less expensive equipment. But we all know that they never would.

The first photograph ever made showing the division between the troposhere and the stratosphere and also the actual curvature of the earth : photographed from an elevation of 72,395 feet, the highest point ever reached by man.
Guesshe forgot the curvature of the hood?
