    Like origami, and no the Flatlander would not see it. Abbot, the author of Flatland, considered the incidence of a sphere into and through Flatland. He opined that the Flatander would see a point appear, grow into a circle, and recede back to a point and disappear. He also (I think it was him, it might have been Martin Gardner) observed that in Flatland, digestive systems could be a problem.
