What is the shape of the Earth?
The oblate spheroid model is the geodetic consensus, but several independent research traditions argue the standard model papers over anomalies in Earth's internal structure, polar geometry, and electromagnetic topology that a simple ellipsoid cannot account for. The question of Earth's true shape — its geoid, its hollow or layered interior, its plasma-bounded outer shell — remains far more contested in suppressed literature than official cartography admits.
Evidence
- The mainstream geodetic answer — an oblate spheroid with equatorial radius ~6,378 km versus polar radius ~6,357 km — is the working model of the World Geodetic System and is not disputed here as a surface approximation.
- What the suppressed record contests is the interior and electromagnetic architecture behind that shell.
- Randall Carlson, citing geological catastrophism, argues that Earth's present oblate form reflects a dynamic, cyclically disrupted body whose axial tilt and polar geometry have shifted catastrophically — Charles Hapgood's pole-shift model places the last such event within human memory.
- Rupert Sheldrake and Tom Campbell, approaching from consciousness physics, treat Earth less as a geometric solid and more as an information-processing node within a larger simulation substrate — geometry being a rendering artifact rather than fundamental reality.
- The honest archival position: the oblate spheroid is a useful engineering approximation; what underlies it — energetically, geologically, and cosmologically — remains an open and actively suppressed question.
