The hard part was creating a flat map of the Earth’s surface with four months’ of satellite data. Reto Stockli, now at the Swiss Federal Office of Meteorology and Climatology, did much of this work. Then we wrapped the flat map around a ball. My part was integrating…

After setting about in 2015 to debunk the 'flat earth' claims of a friend, I found it fascinating that I could not. There are numerous experiments anyone can do that proves the Earth is not curved 7.85 inches per mile squared, however for those unwilling, or afraid to do any research themselves, The Bible Bet  provides irrefutable evidence the Earth is not a planet but a plane, with one simple phone call!
