One Hundred Proofs That the Earth Is Not a Globe

One Hundred Proofs That the Earth Is Not a Globe is a pamphlet written by William Carpenter in 1885, presenting a collection of arguments advocating for a flat Earth. Using a mix of observational claims, logical reasoning, and critiques of mainstream science, Carpenter attempts to refute the widely accepted idea of a spherical Earth. He disputes the effects of gravity, horizon curvature, and astronomical observations, arguing that direct sensory experience suggests a flat, motionless world.

As a historical document, the book provides insight into 19th-century scientific skepticism and the persistence of alternative cosmological theories. While modern science has long disproven its claims, One Hundred Proofs That the Earth Is Not a Globe remains a notable work within the history of flat Earth advocacy.
