That, like the Moon Landing, is clearly all lies, all lies. Sheeple. The moon landing was fake and those shots of the spherical Earth rising -- CSM and Kubrick did it all.
Anyway, in the state of FL in Lee County was the community of the Koreshans, which you can visit, there's a historical marker in Estero. The cult that lived there is gone. But they believed what I said -- the Earth was hollow (that is around in other places), but also that we lived on the inside (likewise, even some Nazis also believed this). The sun in the sky and everything else we see is actually inside the Earth.
Yeah, I know. Crazy stuff.
Anyway, I have a bunch of Buckminster Fuller's books, including Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth. Might be his best. Every time you walk into EPCOT, there it is ... Spaceship Earth. First thing you see on the way in. (It is a sphere!) Except, is it two of Fuller's geodesic domes, or is it just the AT & T "death star" logo made into a large sphere? And as you ride the ride on the inside, is it trying to tell a story of how communications have advanced civilization over time, or is it basically propaganda for how technology corporations like AT & T are always and everywhere making our lives better? Sit back, enjoy the ride, don't fear the death star. Welcome our technological corporate overlords, and enjoy the vinyl leaves. Every EPCOT ride has a corporate sponsor. Walt Disney was a futurist, but he was also a bit of an anti-Semitic butthole. Even his utopian future ... well like so many utopias, we may not all agree on a perfect future. His is very corporate. Well, it's not like Disney Corp. itself is a nonprofit cooperative.

When you ride the People Mover or the monorail at Disney World ... grok that that was Disney's vision of future transportation. Electric aboveground rail. We should all be riding monorails everywhere (so he hoped, anyway.) EPCOT is his model of the future - "Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow".
Fuller created the Dymaxion Map Projection because, let's face it, even cartographers know the flaws of the Mercator Projection. There are a variety of ways to translate a sphere onto a 2-dimensional projection. We are still using, on most maps, the Mercator Projection, created in the Age of Empires/Colonization, which oddly makes Europe look very big, and Africa very small. Funny that. The Dymaxion Map was Fuller's answer to that problem. It looks funny, but it's a 2D projection which if you pick it up & fold it, becomes a 3D representation.
Note: not a sphere, but as close as you can get from folding triangles together - an isocahedron.
