🌍✨ Did you know? The Earth is not a perfect sphere! It's actually an oblate spheroid—slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator. This fascinating shape is due to the planet's rotation. As we spin through space at about 1,000 mph, centrifugal force causes this bulging effect. Next time you look at a globe, imagine it slightly squished! 🌐🔄
