2. Earth
shadow during a lunar eclipse and sickle moon is
ROUND

During a lunar eclipse the Earth's shadow is covering
the moon step by step, and this Earth's shadow is ROUND
[web02]:

Even Aristoteles saw that the Earth's shadow on the moon is
ROUND during a lunar eclipse [web03].
"Moon sickles" are sickles because the Earth's shadow is
ROUND...

3. Magellan's fleet completed
the tour aROUND the Earth 1519-1522 (1 of 5 ships)

[web04]
Since 1492 the criminal gay Pope had parted the world, in
1494 he parted the world definitively into a Portuguese and
a Spanish "half". So, the Magellan's fleet was first in the
"Portuguese" zone, then in the "Spanish" zone reaching the
Philippines, and from the Molucca Islands on it was again in
the "Portuguese" zone heading home around Africa.

The tour around the world from Magellan - accidents,
stress and losses

fleet 1519-1522 [5] - Magellan, portrait [6]
Reaching Brasil all was normal. But then the problems came:
The expedition was looking for a passage passing today's
Argentina controlling all the big bays loosing about 1 year
alone with this (!). The big bays were always dead ends.
Additionally winter was forcing the expedition halting
during months. One ship was crashing in a storm. During a
rebellion one group of seamen returned with the food ship
and could escape. Three ships reached the Philippines
Islands where Magellan was given the task to calm down a
quarrel but was killed. With further quarrels between
sultans on the Philippines a part of the expedition was
killed so it was only possible to go on with 2 ships. The
boss now was Cano (Juan Sebastian del Cano). When the
expedition reached the Molucca Islands another ship was
lost, may be by leakage or because it was robbed by
Portuguese forces. Return was managed by only one single
ship taking a cargo of spices from the Moluccas to Europe.
Map material and protocols were saved. Details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Magellan
Thus: Earth is ROUND.
One more tour around the world by Francis Drake 1577-1580
From 1570 to 1577 the sea criminal and pirate Francis Drake
was robbing many Spanish towns and ships. The tour around
the world from 1577 to 1580 was only the "climax" of his
criminal career marking also an "English" tour around the
world in the world wide history books. His "hobby" during
this tour was robbing and sacking of Spanish coast towns in
today's Chile and Peru. At the end he was ennobled by the
"English Queen" for his criminal sacking activities [web04].

4. Pythagoras, Platon and Aristoteles knew that
Earth is a ball / a globe 
Teaching doctrine in the upper
classes was almost EVER that Earth is a ball or a
globe. Only in the analphabetic popular classes
there was always the rumor spread with the fake that
Earth would be a disc, with the justification
-- that continents would be only islands in the sea
-- that in former epos of Homer Earth was also
descripted as a disc in the water with a sky as a
hemisphere [web05].
But world view as a disc changed soon: Pythagoras,
Platon and his pupil Aristoteles knew that Earth is
a ball resp. a globe
-- they meant yet that Earth is the center of
Universe so all was turning around the Earth thus
Earth had to be a ball or a globe
-- zodiacs of the Northern hemisphere were others
than in the Southern hemisphere
-- the shadow of the earth during a lunar eclipse is
round [web05].

5. Astronomers calculated the
Earth's circumference before more than 2,000 years
already 
First Eratosthenes calculated the Earth's
circumference: 7 degrees aberration of sun's position
during midday between Alexandria and Syene (today's
Assuan)
Eratosthenes is said having calculated the Earth's
circumference first in the late third century BC. He knew that
the distance between Alexandria and Syene (today's Assuan) is
about 5000 stadiums (stadia, 1 stadium is 148.5m). During
summer solstice he controlled the sun's position during
midday: the sun was in a right angle over Syene, and in
Alexandria there was a 7 degree inclination. So this
aberration of 7 degrees was the key for his calculation. In a
normal circle of 360 degrees 7 degrees are about 1/50 of a
circle. Thus he only had to multiply the distance between
Alexandria and Syene by 50 for getting the Earth's
circumference: 50 x 56,000 stadia = 250,000 stadia. This
calculation was coming near to the Earth's circumference
[web05].

When in Syene (today Assuan) during summer solstice the sun is
in a right angle during midday then the sun's position in
Alexandria is about 7 degrees inclined.

7 degrees are about 1/50 of a circle of 360º (calculated
precisely: 360:7=51.43).
Thus the Earth's circumference is about 50 times the distance
between Alexandria and Syene (today's Assuan): 5,000 times a
stadium ()148.5m)=742.5km.
The calculation of Eratosthenes: 50 x 742.5km = 37,125km.
Assuming that Eratosthenes could calculate precisely so he
also calculated precisely:
51.43 x 742.5km = 38,186.775km
With the geographic satellite measurements of the areal
distance between Alexandria and Syene 845.27km come out for
this air trip [web06]. Thus the precise calculation is: 51.43
x 845.27km=43,472.24km.

Map with the satellite distance between Alexandria and
Assuan: 845.27km [14]
Today's equator's circumference being measured by satellites
is 40,007.76km [web05].
Flattened Earth
Now one has to consider also the following fact: Earth is not
a precise ball or globe but is flattened on the poles. There
is a medium Earth's radius, and at the poles the Earth's
radius is minus 14km, and on the equator it's +7km. Thus the
total difference is 21km (!), so the diameter of the Earth is
varying 42km (!) [web07],

Earth is not a ball but a flattened globe, an oval
[15]
|
Thus the circumference on a line of longitude is shorter
than the circumference of the equator, and Eratosthenes was
just very near at the truth with the calculation of
38,186.775km of the Earth's circumference at a line of
longitude.
Ptolemy with Earth in form of a ball in a geocentric
vision of the world
In the second century AC Ptolemy composed the first globe
model. He thought yet that the Earth would be the center of
the universe. He invented the terms of "line of longitude"
and "line of latitude". He calculated an Earth's
circumference of 30,000km [web05].

Ptolemy with a right angle [16] - Geocentric vision of the
world by Ptolemy with the Earth (Terra) in the middle [17]
Galileo Galilei and heliocentric vision of the world
Helios is a Greek word and means "sun". Heliocentric
means that the sun is in the middle. Galileo Galilei was
one of the scientists stating clearly that the world was
ordered with the Earth which was turning around the sun
and not the other way round [web07].

Galileo Galilei, portrait [18] - Heliocentric vision of the
world with the sun in the center [19]
But the criminal gay satanist drug club "Vatican" did
not want to accept that the astronomers would find out
that the sun is in the middle of the solar system and
Earth would turn around the sun. Criminal gay and drug
addicted Vatican was pursuing hundreds of scientists,
among others Galileo Galilei. He made some jokes in his
book "Dialogue" (Dialogo sopra i due massimi
sistemi) against the
gay and corrupt Pope so he had to stay under arrest for
years, he was forced to "abjure" from the heliocentric
vision of the world, and his daughter Suor Celeste took
over the obligation to pray 7 "punishing Psalters" all
weeks during over 3 years [web07].
In Latin
"America" the situation did not change much: Catholic
population is against scientists but is following the
stupid pastors yet and does NOT see until today that the
pastors are COLONIALISTS and that the Bible is from ASIA
and is 2,000 years old and nothing is true in this
Jewish war fantasy. The error Catholics partly believe
until today (2017) only what is in the Bible and the
DON'T READ ANY OTHER BOOK but only want to hear the
pastor and the religious radio. Thus there is the normal
poverty and also the spiritual poverty with these
criminal corrupt Catholics.

6. World maps: first there were discs - then
there were rectangles - then Mercator projection
came with nets and longitude and latitude in 1569 -
at the end the maps are ovals

The old maps BEFORE Mercator's projection show an Earth
and it's continents as a "disk" because in those times it
was not known how to draw a ball on a flat paper.
Additionally "America" was unknown first - officially. The
high political lodges were well informed about the truth
of the continents of Earth, they knew that "America"
exists. The flat Earth discs had different "centers": one
time it was Cairo and Giza, another time it was Jerusalem,
another time it was Mecca or a "Paradise".
When "America" was officially unknown yet it was simple to
draw the flat Earth as a "disc":
Flat earth disc 6th century BC by Hekataios of Milet -
center is Milet [map01] - Flat earth disc by Al Idrisi from
Arabia - center is Mecca, north is downwards [map02]
flat earth disc of criminal gay Vatican - center is
Jerusalem [map03]
Al Idrisi draw all in all an atlas with 71 maps [web08].
Criminal gay Vatican was propagating this flat earth disc for
about 750 years showing Jerusalem as his center of the world
[web08].
World map by Piri Reis from 1513, it's
part of a globe map with Egypt as it's center [map10-01] -
the map of Piri Reis shows the Atlantic with coast lines
of Africa and South "America" [map10-02] - and the whole
map is from a perspective from about 30km with the center
of Cairo - see the movie "Memories of the Future" from
Erich von Däniken [map10-03]
This map is made from about 30km of height with Cairo as
it's center. Thus this map has to be from
extraterrestrials because humans could not fly in these
heights, or extraterrestrials took somebody with them to
make a photo, or the map is made much later when humans
could fly so high. as a coincidence Cairo and Giza were
the center of Egypt pyramid culture where this map has
it's center more or less. Additionally Cairo is the center
of gravity of all continents. The pharaohs were
extraterrestrials and every obelisk is a symbol for a
little space ship for reaching the mother space ship. So,
the thesis that this map was made by extraterrestrials
does not sound rare.
With
every expedition the world map was more and more
completed, and now also the double circle technique
was applied:

Monachus 1526 [map11] - World map by Sebastian Münster
1552: this is the first map showing "America" as an own
continent without connection to Asia [map12]
1569: Mercator projection and faked shapes
of Canada, Greenland, and Russia
Gerhard Mercator came from Flanders. His original name was
Gerard de Kremer, and his name was "latinized" to Gerardus
Mercator. With his maps he was a pioneer, and he was also
cosmographer and philosopher [web08]. Gerhard
Mercator produced a globe in 1541 [web10].

Mercator's globe from 1541
In 1569 he developed his
"Mercator
projection" for precise navigation purposes [web09].
Mercator cut the map of a globe - and then he put
interspaces at the top and at the bottom so there were
straight lines - and the landscape was "extended" there.

World map with Mercator projection 01, the working process
[map13-02]
In this way there is a rectangular map with the first
straight longitude lines and latitude lines so it was
possible the first time to define positions precisely. This
was a sensation in those times. At the same time the
distances at the top and at the bottom were "filled" so
bigger surfaces came out there. Territories were "extended",
so: Greenland, Canada, Russia and Antarctica were much too
big on this Mercator map or were not shown at all [web11]:

World map with Mercator projection 02 from 1569: This was
the first map with a net of lines making a precise
navigation possible, but northern and southern regions and
polar regions came out much too big [map13-03]
When this Mercator projection is applied more and more so
Canada is bigger than "USA", Russia is a giant, and
Greenland becomes as big as Africa. Therefore the politic
NWO Satanists in the Committee of 300 are always with "fear
from Russia" - because the map is WRONG. The reality is
another one:

World map with Mercator projection 03 with Greenland as big
as Africa [map13-04] - the reality about Africa and
Greenland is seen here on a globe [map13-05]
Therefore the best is a Mercator map without polar
regions, but one can show the polar regions separately with
the view from above:
Mercator projection 04 completely [map14] -
Mercator projection 05 with cut poles [map16] - South Pole
with Antarctica, view from above [map15]
Bellied world maps with more real dimensions of the
continents
A bellied world map represents more the real dimensions but
Greenland and Antarctica are much too big yet:

World map from 1990 apr. with a bellied form is representing
more the real dimensions of continents [map16]
When one is forming the belied form to
an oval completing it at the top and at the bottom so the
dimensions become almost real - and suddenly Canada,
Russia and Greenland become much more little:
