Three-Way Standoff

Malekith took a blast from He-El's arm cannon, but he was not sent flying out into Asgard's space. Asgard was a true flat-earth world. Asgard was not a sphere like Earth or the Moon, but a relatively flat, celestial-body-like continental mass suspended in space. Asgard neither rotated on its axis nor revolved around the Sun. Unlike Earth, whose gravity radiated from the center of the sphere, Asgard's gravity radiated from a point or object beneath the floating continent.
