24,901.55
OR
24,859.82
Circumference of the Earth (in miles) around the equator and longitudinally through the poles? gleek FTW!!!! the name of such a shape ? O.K. Dr. I actually needed to look this one up. oblate ellipsoid or geoid Yet, I think I once heard that the Earth is closer to a perfect sphere than anything that humans are able to create/machine. The tallest mountain is only 6 miles high and the diameter is around 8,000 miles. That's pretty amazing from a tolerance standpoint. |
