SPHERE

 I was thinking about this for such a very long time, actually since when I was in Grade Six. Just like you wonder if the Earth was really round (Sphere) or just Flat. 

Okay I was in my Science Class with Miss Carolino, our Science teacher. She's a very smart teacher. She saw me looking up the ceiling and why I cannot stop my eyes from looking at those special extraordinaire balls made to appear like the nine planets in the Solar system. Miss Carolino's science classroom is like that of Astronomy setting with thousands of stars and the hanging balls with strings made like it's the Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus, Pluto then the SUN at the center of the Solar System. It's spectacularly amazingly beautiful with all their colors. The air sometimes blew each ball to move or circulate (planet) that made me think and wonder how those "planets" can stay in the orbit even if they move 24 hours per day. Planets rotate in its orbit and have revolution around the sun. How could that happen eh? It's almost like magic or just plain technical and mechanical. Why planets never ever get tired? Why it is in motion for the rest of our lives and if ever we all die why still planets continue to have its rotation and revolution? Why we never have a fall from Earth down to the abyss of unknown?

Well, of course we studied the LAWS OF GRAVITY & THE LAW OF PHYSICS. We studied motion and all the mechanical and technicality of almost everything. We gained knowledge and we gained and earned experiences. We usually gained knowledge and experiences from the past and from people who are the experts and older from us from home, schools, from books,  and from the workplace. There is nobody in this world who was born full of knowledge.

If all the planets are Flat, do you think there is a rotation in 24 hours? Or there is revolution around the sun in 365 days? It is more like mathematical. If the world or Earth is Flat then the calculation of rotation and revolution would be different and imperfect.Think of the calendar and how the moons take it shape from full moon, half moon, crescent, quarter moon in certain particular day. This is how and why I think GOD IS GREAT!! Everything that he made, created and think is perfect and up to perfection. If the Earth is Flat, there will be uncontrollable floods. 

Think of how the ISS or International Space Station is built in space. The ISS is made of metals connecting tubular metals and hard plastics. It floats there in space for eternity. Why it stays in space for as long as takes without falling? There must be water surrounding deep space. Could it be that every planet in the Solar System is surrounded by special kind of fluids or water that could make planets float? GRAVITY is like the invisible hands of God, don't you think so? 

SUM IT UP: EARTH IS A SPHERE so that you'll have Atmosphere (Air) to breathe life. It has Geosphere (Land), Biosphere (Life), Hydrosphere (Water). 

You know the weight of the EARTH? According to old Encyclopedia, the weight of the Earth is in SIXTILLION. I don't know now. With the billions of people and billions of animals? With all the buildings and houses? With the tons and volumes of garbage? The Earth weighs more than sixtillion.

I LOVE SCIENCE. You as a Human  being should love Science. Science is a fundamental law of life. Religion without Science is blind.
 

Well, wont lose my sleep on this wanting to know if the Earth is Flat or Round. I hope God will reveal the answer to me in my dreams.

Few more days before BACK TO SCHOOL that every family wants to use time wisely for their own kids to enjoy FUN IN THE SUN, fun at the beach, lakes and river. Summer vacation will soon be over!

HAVE FUN & GOOD LUCK!
