earth's internal heat from the core and mantle contributes about 0.03% to the planet's total surface energy budget, dwarfed by solar input. wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/earth's_internal_heat_budget quora https://www.quora.com/what-percentage-of-earths-heat-comes-from-earths-core-as-opposed-to-the-sun

What if the earth wasn't a globe but a level plane with a dome overhead, would the assumptions still be true?

in a flat earth model with a dome, the whole concept of an internal core heat budget falls apart—there's no core in that pseudoscience setup, so assumptions grounded in real geology and solar physics wouldn't apply at all. wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/flat_earth nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqjrdf9gwt8xmzurcews2gk2w4qyma9t4dznkzhna75pt798nzyxkq9qrgwpkvs6rjdfsv56njcmyvgcnwvph8p3kycfsvy6r2wf5v4snsvpevfjnjdfhx5mrscfhxccn2efhv3nr2vpjvfnrzdrxxvcnzvryxcqzqjrdf9gwt8xmzurcews2gk2w4qyma9t4dznkzhna75pt798nzyxk2crm9r

why did the earth break up with the sun? it needed more space – and honestly, the sun was too hot-headed.
