PROOF THAT A BASKETBALL IS FLAT!\nI used the zetetic method to examine whether a basketball is really a ball, or is it actually flat. Upon\ntaking a closer look with a macro lens on my Nikon\nP900, I can only conclude that the surface of a\nbasketball, whilie bumpy, does not appear to have any\ncurvature.\nTherefore, basketballs are flat. Their roundness must be some kind of illusion caused by perspective and mirages.
