By carefully comparing these maps and real photographs with the globe at the top, it can be concluded that Africa does not "curve" around an alleged globe, but extends on the same plane as all the earth's continents and oceans. Seas, lakes and large bodies of water, as the Red Sea above for example, does not bend, as NASA and (popular) science want to assert through manipulated images and film sequences. Water surfaces are ALWAYS level and horizontal and since earth surface is 71% water (and large parts of the land masses are flat plains, steppes, tundras, savannas and grass lands) earth CANNOT be a globe!
