Not quite Flat Dark Earth.

Unfortunately, they sent an AR15 charging handle, instead of a .308 handle.  Fortunately, I can use it for a future build.  The FDE color is a little off, more like a metallic bronze color.

Fair warning, I like fantasy and science fiction books that don't have the same old tired plots.  For example:
1. No absolute good and evil
2. No christ like savior who's awesomely awesome specialness is destined to save the world.
3. Preferably, no world/Universe/Entire multi-verse saving.

While this book is not  perfectly written I like the moral ambiguity and originality. And at least so far the main character is not on a quest to save life, the universe and evil.

The screen is not perfectly uniform, and makes it hard to see outside without a lot of waviness in the image.

An interesting documentary that covers a possible burst from the Sun.  But it is mostly speculation based on remote viewing of the future, not fact.

The author doesn't follow (or seem to follow) that old idea that man is responsible for his own destruction. In fact, it isn't totally clear if an alien invasion or just a natural event is the cause. Looking forward to rest of the series.

Some aliens have been scouting for other spacefaring civilizations, but they've only run across the remains of spacefaring civilizations that have exterminated themselves. They get stranded on Earth in prehistoric times and put themselves into hibernation until they think humans are likely to have the technology for spaceship repairs. A little slow, but well written.

I also enjoyed Oliver's "<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Shadows-in-the-Sun/dp/B000TY1OY8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Shadows in the Sun</a>."

The color is very light; more off- white than beige.

It is darker than I expected at night, and the polar qualities from night lights were not as great as the advertisements raved about.

Interesting map, this is a vintage map. I noticed hawaii isn't even called hawaii on this map! it's called the sandwich islands lol that's how old this map is, but the Flat Earth implications are very interesting.

Shade is much darker than it appears in the picture

Not Biblically sound. God did not create the Earth to be His home. Very JW.

I don't know if the intent here is historical, like republishing something written by the ancient greeks, or if it is satire, or just someone cracking on Christianity.  But virtually no one actually believes in a flat (or flat-ish) Earth.  Much better use of your money to buy a globe if you care about what is where on the Earth.  Much better to buy Bible commentaries or the Amplified version of the Bible for theology.  400 passages in a pig's eye.  But if you're the sort who buys sextants and Ptolemy maps; then you might like this.

I don't think that the planet really did crash Into earth but 2 planets crashed together to make earth . They
really need to fix that.

This ball is not perfectly round and has noticeable bumps throughout.  The rubber lettering for the planet Uranus is peeling off (see picture).  Keep in mind that I got this ball a day ago.

Better than average read of a post-apocalyptic Earth. I don't like it when the author of a sci-fi novel doesn't explain the technical part of things in detail, such as the cause of the apocalypse in this case.

This book starts quietly with the mythical birth and death of the universe according to the 32,000 verses of the "Vishnu Purana," which in many ways predict the evolution of our sun to a red giant, its development of a planetary nebula, and its long, slow decline into darkness as a white dwarf.  The Earth ends in fire, then ice as a consequence of our sun's evolution.
According to "Frontiers of Time," humanity might find a temporary home on Mars while the sun is in its red-giant phase.  Ultimately we could inhabit the Oort Cloud which has a surface area equivalent to 100 million planets the size of Earth, if Carl Sagan and Freeman Dyson turn out to be true prophets.  In the frozen domain of the comets, the sun would shine only a little more brightly than the other stars.
The authors spend a few pages discussing dangers we face while still on Earth.  Comet and meteor strikes are included of course, although this book is just a bit too old to talk about the Chicxulub impact crater, which appears to be exactly the right age and the right size to have terminated most of the life on Earth, sixty-five million years ago.  However, mention is made of the iridium layer and the fact that a comet or meteor impact must have caused the extinctions at the K-T boundary.
Some play is also given to the Milankovitch  theory of climate change, and the likelihood of another ice age some time soon.
NOTE: good news from the NASA website--no Northern Hemisphere summer insolation declines sufficient to cause an ice age are expected for the next 100,000 years.
What will happen five billion years from now when our sun exhausts its central store of hydrogen?  The authors believe that life on Earth will have long since vanished as the greenhouse effect turns our planet into another stifling, waterless Venus.  The sun itself will dwindle down to a long life as a white dwarf, then ultimately cool down to a small, long-forgotten cinder.
Now we've arrived at the heart of "Frontiers of Time"--the grand finale of our universe as all the stars go out and the galaxies themselves evaporate, leaving behind little more than massive black holes.  Not only that--"a trillion trillion years from now, gravitational radiation will have brought all orbital motion in the universe to a halt."

The authors consider three alternative fates for the universe: open and expanding like crazy; open, but slowing down; and closed (be sure to check out the 'Americans for a Closed Universe' web site.  It's a hoot).  Current observations say that there is not enough matter in the universe to reverse the expansion and head us towards a 'Big Crunch.' There certainly isn't enough visible matter, but there is evidence of matter that we can't see, i.e. the so-called 'dark matter.'
This book shows its age (date of publication: 1991) in its discussion of dark matter, and in the absence of any discussion of 'dark energy'(which seems to be pushing galaxies apart even faster into the farthest reaches of the universe.)
It now appears as though 'Open Universe' wins, all protons in the universe will cease to exist, and we'll be left in a very cold, very dull vacuum of elementary particles.
Go to the Internet for the very latest on cosmological theories of proton death, '11-dimensional M-theory,' 'weakly-coupled heterotic strings', and the recently proposed 'ekpyrotic scenario.'  Meanwhile, read this book for a sound overview on the End of Everything.  As always with the Time-Life books, it is filled with beautiful full-color diagrams and photographs.  And as always, the names of the scientists who were consulted for this book are buried on its last page in very small type.

Clues..... hey Watson, how does a ship float.... same way a bird flies says the flat earther.  It buyoncy. Hey Sherlock...... how come my Nikon can see that city across the water thats 30 miles away. According to your theory there should be 600ft of curve... Watson to Sherlock...... you must be a flat earther.
