Why the earth is donut shaped

Most people believe in the theory that the earth is curved, a sphere. But as light is curved, we cannot really tell what shape is the earth we live on.

My 100% scientifically accurate theory is that the earth is shaped like a donut (a torus).

First of all, everyone will quickly question, why has the hole in the centre of the torus not been discovered? Well as said before, light bends and follows the curvature of the torus, making the hole “unseeable”. Logically, it is possible for a torus-shaped planet to form, so we cannot rule out the possibility that the Earth is shaped like a torus, and therefore the hypothesis must be considered as a potential model.

You cannot see the stars because when you look up at the sky, you are decreasing the amount of distance the light travels to reach the atmosphere, so it diminishes less. In these cases, it is not diminished enough to be reflected by the atmosphere, and hence we can see the stars.

The reason you cannot see the opposite side is that when you stand in the middle of the earth and look up, the light passes through the first atmosphere it reaches. However, by the time it reaches the second atmosphere it has diminished enough to be reflected, and gets reflected into space, so you see space.
