      Never happened. Was always round, we just had to figure it out through scientific observation. People in teh middle ages thought about the world as a flat space because they did not have the knowledge about planets the universe etc, when the knowledge grew our understanding grew too and one day someone figured out that Earth is not flat but round, based on all the observations humans made!
