Why is Asgard flat?

Why is Asgard flat?

Rather than being a sphere, Asgard is relatively flat. It doesn’t rotate on an axis, nor does it revolve around any kind of sun, but still has night and day cycles. Asgard’s gravity is roughly that of Earth’s. However, all Asgardian matter is much stronger and denser that any Midgardian counterparts.

Is Asgard a real place on Earth?

No, Asgard is not a real place. In Norse mythology, it was home to the gods. It corresponds to Mount Olympus in Greek mythology.

Is Asgard an asteroid?

Asgard is thought of among the Nine-Realms as the rulers of the nine planets. Asgard is not a circular planet, nor does it spin. It is instead a flat asteroid-like mass that has a top surface wit a gravitational pull.

Why was Asgard created?

When Midgard was complete, Odin and his brothers created a home for themselves above it called Asgard. Between the two worlds they stretched a rainbow bridge and called it Bifröst. It was prophesied that Loki would lead Asgard’s enemies in a final conflict known as Ragnarök, which would lead to its destruction.

How does Asgard float?

It is not round, so it does not spin on its axis or revolve around a star; instead it’s flat. It’s claimed that the surface has a gravitational pull similar to that of Earth’s. There is an unknown force that keeps the surfaces from eroding and allows Asgard’s water bodies to drift off into space.

Why is Asgard on Earth?

With Thor’s return to Earth after the events of Ragnarok, he also recreated the capital city of Asgard on Earth itself, specifically on a piece of land outside Broxton, a small city west of Oklahoma City that he purchased for a flatbed truck of gold. Using the Odin-Force, Thor raised it up above the ground.

How do you exist Asgard?

Dodge out of the way of any hits and interact with the gate to close it. After a short cutscene, an ‘eye’ icon will be added to your map (see the image above) and you can interact with this to leave Asgard whenever you wish.

What is special about Asgard?

Drawn directly from Norse mythology, Asgard is the home of a powerful pantheon of gods, including Thor. It is a small, other-dimensional planetoid (its surface area being about the same as the continental United States), whose nature and physics are different from those of planetary bodies in the Earthly dimension.

What is the shape of Asgard?

It is a flat, asteroid-like mass that has a top surface with a gravitational pull, similar to that of the Earth’s, in order to keep the citizens and their cities from floating into the void. The matter on Asgard is also denser and more durable than the matter on Earth.

Why is Asgard’s surface more durable than Earth’s?

The matter on Asgard is also denser and more durable than the matter on Earth. There is an unknown force that keeps the surfaces of Asgard from eroding and from allowing its bodies of water from drifting off into space.

Is Asgard an artificial planet?

However, basic physics tells us that due to gravity, surface tension and rotation around their axes, planets found in nature are actually oblate spheroids (=spheres squeezed a bit on the poles). This clearly suggests Asgard is probably artificial either via advanced technology or magic (the Odinforce?) or both.

Does the MCU have a flat Earth?

Only one explanation. The MCU has a flat Earth, unless Wakanda is in the western hemisphere. While Uganda could be at sunset, and San Francisco at dawn at the same time (some months), a round Earth can’t explain the amount of daylight in each Earth location at “snap time”.
