When you observe the Sun and Moon you see two equally-sized equidistant circles tracing similar paths at similar speeds around a flat, stationary Earth. The “experts” at NASA, however, claim your common sense every day experience is false on all counts! To begin with, they say the Earth is not flat but a big ball; not stationary but spinning around 19 miles per second; they say the Sun does not revolve around the Earth as it appears, but Earth revolves around the Sun; the Moon, on the other hand, does revolve around the Earth, though not East to West as it appears, rather West to East; and the Sun is actually 400 times larger than the Moon and 400 times farther away! You can clearly see they are the same size and distance, you can see the Earth is flat, you can feel the Earth is stationary, but according to the gospel of modern astronomy, you are wrong and a simpleton worthy of endless ridicule if you dare to trust your own eyes and experience

It is claimed that the other planets are spheres and so therefore Earth must also be a sphere. Firstly, Earth is a “plane” not a “planet,” so the shape of these “planets” in the sky have no bearing on the shape of the Earth beneath our feet. Secondly, these “planets” have been known for thousands of years around the world as the “wandering stars” since they differ from the other fixed stars in their relative motions only. When looked at with an unprejudiced naked-eye or through a telescope, the fixed and wandering stars appear as luminous discs of light, NOT spherical terra firma. The pictures and videos shown by NASA of spherical terra firma planets are all clearly fake computer-generated images, and NOT photographs.

The Sun’s annual journey from tropic to tropic, solstice to solstice, is what determines the length and character of days, nights and seasons. This is why equatorial regions experience almost year-round summer and heat while higher latitudes North and especially South experience more distinct seasons with harsh winters. The heliocentric model claims seasons change based on the ball-Earth’s alleged “axial tilt” and “elliptical orbit” around the Sun, yet their flawed current model places us closest to the Sun (91,400,000 miles) in January when its actually winter, and farthest from the Sun (94,500,000 miles) in July when its actually summer throughout most of the Earth.

People claim that if the Earth were flat, with the Sun circling over and around us, we should be able to see the Sun from everywhere all over the Earth, and there should be daylight even at night-time. Since the Sun is NOT 93 million miles away but rather just a few thousand and shining down like a spotlight, once it has moved significantly far enough away from your location it becomes invisible beyond the horizon and daylight slowly fades until it completely disappears. If the Sun were 93 million miles away and the Earth a spinning ball, the transition from daylight to night would instead be almost instantaneous as you passed the terminator line.

The horizon always rises to the eye level of the observer as altitude is gained, so you never have to look down to see it. If Earth were in fact a globe, no matter how large, as you ascended the horizon would stay fixed and the observer / camera would have to tilt looking down further and further to see it.

Surveyors, engineers and architects are never required to factor the supposed curvature of the Earth into their projects. Canals, railways, bridges and tunnels for example are always cut and laid horizontally, often over hundreds of miles without any allowance for curvature.

>>741191404
Wait. If it "disappears" "below" the horizon, that means it's crashed into it.

A "sunset" should look like an airplane flying away: it gets smaller and smaller, always above the horizon, until you can't see it anymore because it's too small.

Like your pants-worm.

That's a blatant untruth.

Look out a plane, the horizon is below you and you have to look down to see it. If a plane points its nose at the horizon, eventually it crashes into the ground.

If the Earth were truly a sphere 25,000 miles in circumference, airplane pilots would have to constantly correct their altitudes downwards so as to not fly straight off into “outer space;” a pilot wishing to simply maintain their altitude at a typical cruising speed of 500 mph, would have to constantly dip their nose downwards and descend 2,777 feet (over half a mile) every minute! Otherwise, without compensation, in one hour’s time the pilot would find themselves 31.5 miles higher than expected.

Not only is the disappearance of ship’s hulls explained by the Law of Perspective on flat surfaces, it is proven undeniably true with the aid of a good telescope. If you watch a ship sailing away into the horizon with the naked eye until its hull has completely disappeared from view under the supposed “curvature of the Earth,” then look through a telescope, you will notice the entire ship quickly zooms back into view, hull and all, proving that the disappearance was caused by the Law of Perspective, not by a wall of curved water! This also proves that the horizon is simply the vanishing line of perspective from your point of view, NOT the alleged “curvature” of Earth.

The fact of the matter is that the Law of Perspective on plane surfaces dictates and necessitates the exact same occurrence. For example a girl wearing a dress walking away towards the horizon will appear to sink into the Earth the farther away she walks. Her feet will disappear from view first and the distance between the ground and the bottom of her dress will gradually diminish until after about half a mile it seems like her dress is touching the ground as she walks on invisible legs. Such is the case on plane surfaces, the lowest parts of objects receding from a given point of observation necessarily disappear before the highest.

These nail it exactly. Time zones and the fact that the sun doesn't get bigger and smaller a it moves across the sky. The sun maintains a nearly constant size - and therefore distance. The tiny "far away sun" is incapable of producing day and night at the exact same time- the tiny sun would still be visible to illuminate any part of the flat earth - ( Time zones: as would be observed in a phone call from say, Europe to Hawaii or the USA west coast - it is night in ne location and day in another). And the absence of hours of lag and real-time response in conversation proves it is "the same time" and not a played back recording or sample. How about the source of the shadow that causes the phases of the moon? Is it a pizza plate? No, it is the shadow of the round earth projected onto the surface of the round moon. Imagine if you will, an ant walking around an orange. As it walks over the curve you start with just seeing the top - maybe antennae, Slowly the whole ant rises up over the curved surface...kinda like the sun at sunrise or the ant walking away from you at sunset. There are also mathematical ways of proving the Earth is not flat, but that would require math that is beyond the elementary school level of the OP and his troll.

Because flat earth is the dumbest fucking conspiracy that has ever existed. I've looked at other planets through telescopes. They are round. Why would they be round while the earth is flat. If you watch videos from astronauts playing with liquid, you'll notice that the liquid will always form a sphere in the absence of gravity. Most things in space form into spheres. It's just how physics work. If you believe that all the people that have seen the earth from space are lying, and every person who has looked at other planets with telescopes is being deceived by an illusion, and that the fundamentals of physics and mathematics are wrong, and that your government and all the other governments of the world are lying to you, YOU ARE STUPID.

In the words of Carl Sagan:

"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence".

Well. the world has been known to be round for some 2,200 years. Every evidence indicates this, from ships going below the horizon, to rockets launched into space. Every measurement, from basic cartography and geography, to seismology and geology is evidence of a round earth. Physics, from the most basic elements like gravity, to the laws of light, to newtonian laws and relativity make sense only in the context of a round earth.

Instead, the flat earthers make claims of "conspiracy". Extraordinary claims, and yet not one supporting shred of evidence which bears scrutiny.

That is why the entire concept of a flat earth is nonsense; wilful scientific illiteracy, and ignorance of reality.

The natural physics of water is to find and maintain its level. If Earth were a giant sphere tilted, wobbling and hurdling through infinite space then truly flat, consistently level surfaces would not exist here. But since Earth is in fact an extended flat plane, this fundamental physical property of fluids finding and remaining level is consistent with experience and common sense.

If Earth were a ball 25,000 miles in circumference as NASA and modern astronomy claim, spherical trigonometry dictates the surface of all standing water must curve downward an easily measurable 8 inches per mile multiplied by the square of the distance. This means along a 6 mile channel of standing water, the Earth would dip 6 feet on either end from the central peak. Every time such experiments have been conducted, however, standing water has proven to be perfectly level.

If “gravity” is credited with being a force strong enough to hold the world’s oceans, buildings, people and atmosphere stuck to the surface of a rapidly spinning ball, then it is impossible for “gravity” to also simultaneously be weak enough to allow little birds, bugs, and planes to take-off and travel freely unabated in any direction

Engineer, W. Winckler was published in the Earth Review regarding the Earth’s supposed curvature, stating, “As an engineer of many years standing, I saw that this absurd allowance is only permitted in school books. No engineer would dream of allowing anything of the kind. I have projected many miles of railways and many more of canals and the allowance has not even been thought of, much less allowed for. This allowance for curvature means this - that it is 8” for the first mile of a canal, and increasing at the ratio by the square of the distance in miles; thus a small navigable canal for boats, say 30 miles long, will have, by the above rule an allowance for curvature of 600 feet. Think of that and then please credit engineers as not being quite such fools. Nothing of the sort is allowed. We no more think of allowing 600 feet for a line of 30 miles of railway or canal, than of wasting our time trying to square the circle”

The entire heliocentric model of the universe hinges upon Newton’s “law of gravitation.” Heliocentrists claim that the Sun is the most massive object in the heavens, more massive even than the Earth, and therefore the Earth and other planets by “law” are caught up in the Sun’s “gravity” and forced to orbit perpetual circles/ellipses around it. They claim that gravity also somehow allows people, buildings, the oceans, and all of nature to exist on the under-side of their “ball-Earth” without falling off
>>
>>741197573
Lets take a look at how we calculate gravity.

F= force of gravity between 2 objects.
G= gravitational constant. I can see your memes. Look up the Cavendish Experiment (or do it yourself, it is easily replicatable). There are also more modern, repeatable, and well documented experiments that can prove that we have a good idea on this.

Msub1 = mass (this terminology is important) of the first object
Msub2 = mass of the second object
r= distance between the center of mass of both objects.

F=G*((Msub1 * Msub2)/r^2)

What this means is that the force of gravity is much much stronger between objects of growing mass, to an exponential degree. The mass of a bird isn't that much. The mass of an ocean, or a planetary body, is many many many orders of magnitude more.

In the end something disproved would almost always come usefull because it can be used to validate even more what we consider as true or it might even become the actual truth the possibilities are infinite

Now, even if gravity did exist, why would it cause both planets to orbit the Sun and people to stick to the Earth? Gravity should either cause people to float in suspended circular orbits around the Earth, or it should cause the Earth to be pulled and crash into the Sun! What sort of magic is “gravity” that it can glue people’s feet to the ball-Earth, while causing Earth itself to revolve ellipses round the Sun? The two effects are very different yet the same cause is attributed to both.

Furthermore, this magnetic-like attraction of massive objects gravity is purported to have can be found nowhere in the natural world. There is no example in nature of a massive sphere or any other shaped-object which by virtue of its mass alone causes smaller objects to stick to or orbit around it! There is nothing on Earth massive enough that it can be shown to cause even a dust-bunny to stick to or orbit around it! Try spinning a wet tennis ball or any other spherical object with smaller things placed on its surface and you will find that everything falls or flies off, and nothing sticks to or orbits it. To claim the existence of a physical “law” without a single practical evidential example is hearsay, not science.

Also explain orbit (and how we manage to put things into orbit), how we stay on our "plane" if gravity doesn't exist (gravity explains why things become spherical in space and you need to dismantle that mechanism to prove your point), explain the rotation of stars in the sky, as well as the different visible constellations, explain magnetic fields if there is no metal core at the centre of the earth (and in particular, the way they manifest if you let metal filings ride along them which indicate two different poles), explain how tectonic plates function and how new land is generated and moves, and finally, explain why legitimately NOBODY in the history of humanity has found the edge of the flat earth, and why nobody has fallen of it.

See /b/, the trick with conspiracy theories is that they like to stick to one question at a time. The entirety of a variety of phenomena existing at once can only be explained by a globe.

Yeah, and where does that come from, newfriend? Not just a fucking wall.

Back in 2003, everyone knew what trolling was and not to reply to it. This is just sad.

Civil engineer and Hydrologist here, I second the motion that curvature is in fact accounted for.
Now go back to your basement so you don't infect the world with your stupidity.

The Moon is around 238,900 miles away from Earth. Knowing that we can tell that it has a diameter of around 2,159 miles. Knowing that, we can calculate the Moon's orbit in relation to the Earth, (meaning that it spins around us, us being on a globe) and our orbit in relation to the Sun. Of course, all of this hinges on the fact that the distance of the Moon from Earth is as described above. How can we be sure of that? Well, quite handily, astronauts in the Apollo Moon landing program left some retroreflectors up there on the surface and we can precisely point lasers at these and measure the time it takes for the light to bounce back. Seeing as we know the speed of light is 186,282 miles per second and it takes the laser light approximately 2 and a half seconds to return to Earth, we can verify the distance is correct (and that the Moon is actually moving away from us by 3.8 cm per year).

>The earth is flat. Prove me wrong.
Is exactly the same thing as
>The earth's core is made of cheese cake. Prove me wrong.

A) You don't get to make up random nonsense and demand others disprove it.
B) No one on Earth is stupid enough (outside of North Korea) to actually believe the Earth is flat. Therefore, all these threads must be trolls.

As a matter of fact, no. Not everyone knew what trolling is, but i tell you what they did know... they knew what threads they were in.

I don't think you belong here.

There are some scientist that are way smarter than you and believe that earth is flat

Read the ships log of Magellan's voyage around the world. You'll have to read Portuguese as it was written between 1519-1522
