>The solar panels shouldn't be curved at all unless a fish eye/digital editing is being used
if you go do that experiment with a stick, you'll see this is false. when you've got an extremely foreshortened object towards the sides of the FOV, you get that effect.
>Do you challenge that atoms exist?
You can experimentally confirm the existence of atoms with a glass of water, some salt, and a sunny windowsill. Bonus points for using a voltmeter as well.
>Do shadows also distort the shape of the earth?
Yes, you dickhead. The far edge of the earth is in deep shadow, so you can't SEE it, so it looks like a sliver has been lopped off of it in the photo. Are you three years old?
>why don't they show both sides?

ChemE + paleo basically just screams petroleum industry to me. Your other option, as I see it, is to go the full academia route and study the geochemistry of fossilization/preservation/diagenesis, but I don't know how much overlap there is between that kind of chemistry and what you learn for ChemE.
