They may not be, it might simply be an optical illusion.
If string theory is true then everything is made up of little strings so circles and spheres are really just multisided polygons and when you get close enough the smooth edge vanishes and you see it's s straight line to another line on an angle.

It is just a name that is given for a round joined curved line.We have got used to calling it a circle. It is an important shape, that is found in wheels, circular clocks, round tables, etc.

Now how did I know that you just signed up and this is your first question. Very unimaginative. You could have at least asked why the sky was blue or why the flag waved if there's no gravity on the moon. Okay, we have all seen what you're capable of... now back away from the computer and go chase your tail.

The edge is always the same distance from the centre.

Everyone else seems to have understood your question. Am I missing something?

Do you plan to ask more pointless questions like your first one?
