The conspiracy theories that the Earth is flat causes it to focus on this idea.

In the universe, we cannot come across a “flat özel object in any form. Let’s explain the reason.

A random system rotating in space has angular momentum.

The protection of the angular momentum says that the system will not change the angular momentum of the system unless a torque (rotating moment) is applied from the outside. When a gas cloud consisting of randomly moving particles begins to collapse under their own gravity with time, even a small rotation movement of the cloud increases due to the conservation of angular momentum and creates an obvious rotation effect.

We can exemplify this by the return movement of an ice skater. Returning more slowly while keeping his arms open, the skate starts to turn more quickly when he pulls his arms in. When a gas cloud in space begins to collapse, an example occurs and the return face increases.

When the gas and dust particles are revealed with the effect of gravitational, the centrifugal force comes into play with the rotation of the system.

However, this force is effective only in the direction of the rotation plane (in the direction of the equator). While the gravity draws all the particles inward, the centrifugal force prevents the disintegration of particles in the direction of the rotation axis.

Inward gas and powder by gravity, eventually, forms a disc -form structure. In other words, the element that continues to collapse on the vertical side is thinning, expanding in the horizontal direction to reach the disk form.

Of course, gravity and hydrostatic stability are also effective.

If a celestial body collapses homogeneously under the gravity and the rotation movement is weak, it becomes a sphere. The reason is that it is completely hydrostatic stability. If you have noticed, small and slow -rotating planets and stars are close to the sphere shape.

However, if we look at a quick -rotating system, there is a more wrong expansion than the poles because the centrifugal force is more effective in the equatorial region. This causes rapidly rotating objects to approach the oblat (flattened) sphere.

Most galaxies are in the form of disk.

The stars and the gas take the galaxy, disk form in time due to angular momentum while rotating around the galaxy center. In addition, the point around the black holes forms a structure in a disc.

Therefore, the main reason why the objects in space are round is related to the conservation of angular momentum and the aggravation of gas and dust on a certain plane with the influence of centrifugal force. This principle is a scientific situation that explains that they are in the form of disk from the planets to many astronomical objects.
