Why is the shadow of earth on the moon always curved? Because there is only one shape that will always produce a curved shadow no matter what angle the light source comes from. That shape is a sphere. If the earth were flat like a dinner plate, then at some point we would see a shadow on the moon like a straight line or a band of shadow.

I recently heard a discussion between a group of young people on the train on this subject. It was pretty scary.

On second thoughts, line em all up and send them there sans ropes.
