It isnt a sphere, technically. Well, not a perfect sphere. We can calculate the whole earth, so we can see whether it is a sphere or not. Satellites, Apollo 11-17, Hubble Space Telescope, are all examples of seeing Earth in its entirety.

Its a ball or some short of rounded object. Because if it wasnt you wouldnt be able to travel across the world and get to the same point you started at

Exactly correct. The earth is a rounded 3 dimensional object. The exact dimensions are inconclusive, but we can tell from tools and equipment, and also common knowledge that the earth is a rounded shape. Theoretically, if you walked across the planet, you would end up exactly where you started if you traveled in a straight line. Only possible if the object is rounded. It it was a cube, for example, you would have a dip in your path, and go either straight up or straight down for a period of time.

The earth is spherical to a degree. Due to its rotational speeds being faster at the equater (further to travel per rotation than the poles, but at the same time) it is slightly wider at the equator which makes it an oblate spheroid (basically a squashed sphere)

You know im not gonna say the earth is flat or spherical, oblate spheroid, pear shape lol. I will say that the photos of earth that NASA sends us are definitely fake/cgi. First they say earth is a sphere, then it was oblate spheroid lol... now its a pear lol.
If it really is oblate spheroid or pear shape why are they still showing earth as a ball & not a pear? What are they hiding from us?

Ahh yes.

May I add that Saturn is shaped like a toblerone and Venus is an actual planet sized human being.

Cant believe you actually posted this. Clearly the earth is round, we have pictures proving it and its scientifically proven...I think someone is post whoring
