Three evidences to prove that the earth is a spherical heavenly body are mentioned below,:-
- When seen from various angles, the Sun, the Moon, and other celestial bodies appear to be spherical. Since the earth is one of them, its shape must also be spherical.
- Only when the Earth is spherical is it possible to go around the globe. One could make a full circle of the globe by setting out on a sea voyage in the direction of the east and continuing to move in that same direction. This would bring them back to the starting point.
- The earth's spherical shape has been well demonstrated by satellite images and photographs shot by cosmonauts in recent years.
