A man-made earth

A:

You know how ppl sculpted a mountian? Well what if ppl sculpted the earth, and made it square like a box...

1. Would it stay in its orbit?
2. Would it keep the same positioned north and south pole minus the aroundedness? Or, because it were turned into a square like a box, would it have to change the places where the poles are?
3. Would gravity be the same to ppl on the planet on every corner, point, and flat side?

B:

What if ppl sculped the earth and made it a pyramid...

1. Would it stay in its orbit?
2. Would it keep the same positioned north and south pole minus the aroundedness? Or, because it were turned into a pyramid, would it have to change the places where the poles are?

What are you talking about?

A giant spaceship? like a town or something? That is definitely possible, and I have no doubt that in future you can go visit mcdonalds on earths orbit lol.

Yes. Even if the excess material is removed somehow.

More or less. Nothing would stay where it is initially. Most of Earth is molten lava. It would flow back to a round shape pretty quickly.

3. Would gravity be the same to ppl on the planet on every corner, point, and flat side?

Definitely not.

B:

Same answers.

Mabus,

Yes it is possible.
Just get a giant Klingon Battlecruiser with
electro laser technology and slice it into a triangle.

I will contact starfleet to transmit the request.
