The gas pressure variation in Earth's atmosphere is maintained by gravity. It's not proof there's a "container" of some kind around a flat Earth.

What you’re seeing above is an attempt to visualize the shape of earth’s gravitational field. The model is called a geoid—and it looks the way it does because if you took away all other ...

Neutron stars are nearly perfect spheres due to their huge gravitational pressure, but the mountains on the cosmic objects can create rippling waves through spacetime Adam Smith Monday 19 July ...

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — On this segment of Elaina’s Experiments we learned the properties of gravity and air pressure. Delia Navarro with the Sylvan Learning Center stopped by 17 News ...

But when massive stars die, they go out in all their glory.Their huge size, means there's enough gravitational pressure to not only fuse hydrogen, but also helium. And carbon.
