My little brother is friends with his kid and I sat next to him at a wrestling match. He kek'ed heartily when I asked him what he thought of flat earthers.
"Can't orbit a disc."

Wait, where is the edge then? Like, what country can you not fly to from both directions? Who is at the edge?
>>702845361
you are not an astronaughty
Satellite internet is a thing. The service requires a dish pointed towards an object in orbit near the equator. If the earth is flat, there is no equator, and no satellites, so two-way satellite communications would be impossible. But they are not, because they are in use as you read.

This stupid fucking thread again?
i think the earth is also flat...i just took a huge red pill
Doesn't look flat to me.

The earth is indeed flat. Don't beleive bs NASA photoshopped pictures and holograms. Just look in fucking front of you ffs. Look at the fucking horizon. It's fucking flat. Go in a fucking plane. Look down, it's also fucking flat.
>inb4 earth appears as a sphere if in a rocket ship
Again, unless I'm in the fucking ship it self then I won't beleive it, as I said, don't fall for NASA shit.
>>702847970
Don't worry if they ever put you in a rocket ship and you saw the earth was flat, flat earthers would just claim you were killed and replaced with a clone
>>702847970
Why is Earth flat, but nothing else is?
>>702844368
The Nile runs uphill cunt
>>702848093

Nah mate, acquire a friend up or down in your hemisphere and ask them to measure a 1m tall pole at a given time. Do the same at your point and compare the length. Fucking Greeks proved the Earth was round with this shit.

this statement is almost impossible to disprove but the claimer has no evidence to back up set claim
I live beside lake superior, if the world is flat I should be able to see the other side.

well space is real, but not the exact measurements or infinite nature/vastness and whatever you can't see with your own eyes isn't actually there. nasa claims we can't even get past the radiation field around earth so anything past it is just quite literally fairy tale.

NASA never claimed that.
Look at this. In space even Soyuz and Progres looks majestically
>>702851223
So basically, if you can't see it, it doesn't exist. That's your 'logic.'
And also, the 'radiation field' is why we have various types of telescopes that can see bodies many hundreds of billions of miles away.
It's still pretty early in the semester. I suggest you sign up for an intro to Astronomy course.

and your logic is because science books and "experts" tell you so, so it must be true? if they have telescopes that can see billions of miles away, why are those only accessible to space programs? i've taken astronomy and i realized how much BS was in it, it seemed like its own religion
>>702851223
>>we can't even get past the radiation field
Except we have. The Van Allen belts are not so intense as to cook us instantaneously, we had shielding, and we were going pretty damn fast. Total exposure was equal to about ten x-rays.
>"The van Allen belts are regions above the Earth's surface where the Earth's magnetic field has trapped particles of the solar wind. An unprotected man would indeed get a lethal dose of radiation, if he stayed there long enough. Actually, the spaceship traveled through the belts pretty quickly, getting past them in an hour or so. There simply wasn't enough time to get a lethal dose, and, as a matter of fact, the metal hull of the spaceship did indeed block most of the radiation."

How about space X? There's plenty of private space companies it's just expensive as fuck and not a lot of money to be made that's why nasa only gets about .7% of Americas federal budget
Also look at the moon buddy
>>702851838
You don't even need textbooks or science courses; buy a telescope, go outside on a clear night, and use that telescope to see for yourself. The reason those high-powered scopes are only accessible to space programs is simple: those are the only people who are educated enough to handle and properly use them. Would you really have any random Tom, Dick, Harry, Jane, or Catniss using such a fine piece of machinery just to look into their neighbors' living rooms? I ask, because that's exactly what would happen. The average troglodyte doesn't understand science, and is thus, terrified by it.
And if you got THAT out of an Astronomy course, you were probably better suited for Sociology anyway.

> Try and prove me wrong
You have it backwards, dingus. You have to prove your claim first.
But you're probably some religious retard, so your entire world view is built on, "I don't need evidence! I don't have to prove I'm right! You have to prove I'm wrong! So there!"
That child-like mentality is probably why you believe in a sky daddy. It's certainly the reason you believe in something as catastrophically retarded as a flat Earth.
>>702851838
In other words, you took an introductory science class and still could not understand the material because it was outside your personal understanding of the world.
Your beliefs have already cemented and are impervious to change regardless of the evidence provided.
You also, somehow, are so incredibly intelligent that you figured out something that billions of other people haven't figured out, even the genius class of scientists and mathematicians.
To quote the great Doctor Gregory House: "You're an idiot."
>>702851254
I think you mean "loaded"
>>702845554
Not a flat earther but you can't actually see the curvature of the earth until you leave the atmosphere. That Red Bull skydiver a few years back wasn't event high enough to see it--the perceived curve was from a fisheye lens.
But of course earth is a sphere, only a retard would think otherwise.

I seriously hope you're being facetious at this point. Regardless, you're drawing a false equivalency by citing the DoD, because it has nothing to do with Astronomy. Even if you're joking, this kind of thinking is very dangerous to have in the 21st or any century.

I know it's not flat, I'm not an idiot, but every now and then (especially whilst stoned) I often wonder if there's more to the world than we know..
Stuff like a mini continent in the Pacific reserved for only the super rich or the distance between sayyyy Ireland and New York is only about 200 miles, but people say it's 1000s for secret reasons
Like, we take a lot of stuff at face value as facts, but how many of us have sailed the earth and can say it's so big or been to every country and confirmed it's real not just a huge government base or something like that
Anyone else ever think shit like that?

The ISS is an orbiting space station visible with a telescope and, rarely, the naked eye. How would it be possible for such a thing to be floating in a flat earth model?
>>702852753
8 miles is a good number. With about 10 feet height that is your horizon. A standing observer will see less then 5.
>>702853050
But if you use that example, a flat earth accelerating upward would collide with the plane as soon as it tries to take off.
>>702852893
Give us the sauce OP or you're just spilling shit out of your mouth
>>702852893
Show your math.
At 4 miles, the total curvature is approx. 4/26000 of a circle. A single degree of a circle is 1/360, so we are talking about an incredibly small arc.

Leave your basement. Any airplane trip will show the curve. 30,000 feet is more then enough.
>>702853825
i mean round*
>>702853050
Objects in orbit are, more or less, in a constant fall, but are moving forward with enough velocity that it keeps missing. A plane has to counter wind resistance and the stronger pull of gravity at the lower altitudes which they fly, which is why they must have continuous thrust. It appears level because the pull of gravity is constant regardless of point around the circle.
>>702853943

i'd say there's more to that and you should do more digging yourself. look, i didn't believe in flat earth up until recently, and it's only because the more evidence i look for, the more it points to tht the earth is NOT what we think it is.

So you went into a *science* class and started asking *philosophical* questions. Got it.
Should have asked what the prevailing theories are as to what caused the theoretical "Big Bang". She might have responded with the dimensional collapse theory, the cosmic heart beat (Big Crunch followed by Big Bang ad infinitem)
Beyond that it sounds like you just had hurt feelings because she dismissed God all together.

The discovery that the Earth is a little world was made, as to many important human discoveries were, in the ancient Near East, in a time some humans call the third century BC, in the greatest metropolis of the age, the Egyptian city of Alexandria. Here there lived a man named Eratosthenes. One of his envious contemporaries called him "Beta," the second letter of the Greek alphabet, because, he said, Eratosthenes was second best in the world in everything. But it seems clear that in almost everything Eratoshtenes was "Alpha."
He was an astronomer, historian, geographer, philosopher, poet, theater critic and mathematician. He was also the director of the great library of Alexandria, where one day he read in a papyrus book that in the southern frontier outpost of Syene, at noon on June 21 vertical sticks cast no shadows. On this the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, shadows of temple columns grew shorter. At noon, they were gone. The sun was directly overhead.
It was an observation that someone else might easily have ignored. Sticks, shadows, reflections in well, the of the Sun - of what possible importance could simple everyday matters be? But Eratosthenes was a scientist, and his musings on these commonplaces changed the world; in a way, they made the world. Eratosthenes had the presence of mind to do an experiment, actually to observe whether in Alexandria vertical sticks cast shadows near noon on June 21. And, he discovered, sticks do.
>>702852655
Eratosthenes asked himself how, at the same moment, a stick in Syene could cast no shadow and a stick in Alexandria, far to the north, could cast a pronounced shadow. Consider a map of ancient egypt with two vertical sticks of equal length one stuck in Alexandria, the other in Syene. Suppose that, at a certain moment, each stick casts no shadow at all. This is perfectly easy to understand - provided the Earth is flat. The Sun would then be directly overhead. If the two sticks cast shadows of equal length, that also would make sense of a flat Earth: the Sun's rays would then be inclined at the same angle to the two sticks. But how could it be that at the same instant there was no shadow at Syene and a substantial shadow at Alexandria?
The only possible answer, he saw was, that the surface of the Earth is curved. Not only that: the greater the curvature, the greater the difference in the shadow lengths. The Sun is so far away that its rays are parallel when they reach the Earth. Sticks placed at different angles to the Sun's rays cast shadows of different lengths. For the observed difference in the shadow lengths, the distance between Alexandria and Syene had to be about seven degrees along the surface of the Earth; that is, if you imagine the sticks extending down to the center of the Earth, they would there intersect at an angle of seven degrees. Seven degrees is something like one-fiftieth of three hundred and sixty degrees, the full circumference of the Earth. Eratosthenes knew that the distance between Alexandria and Syene was approximately 800 kilometers, because he hired a man to pace it out. Eight hundred kilometers times 50 is 40000 kilometers: so that must be the circumference of the Earth. This is the right answer. Eratosthenes' only tools were sticks, eyes, feet and brains, plus a taste for experiment.

Kinda talking about the 3rd light source.

Look flatties, at this point, you're just flat out wrong. Any sane person viewing the evidence at this point would flatly refuse to continue such a stupid debate. As of now, your argument has been knocked flat on it's ass. Unless you can find a new piece of compelling evidence, it seems your theory has flatlined.

You expect huge difference from just 4 miles? WEW.
>>702854261
Then why is the sunlight coming through from a single light point? If the sun was 93 million miles away the rays would be flat
>>702854547
that video didn't, but the military does use infrared lasers to find enemy ships miles and miles away. lasers can only go in a straight line. the fact tht they cannot see the ships but can detect them through infrared lasers should show tht sea level is flat as fuck and never really curves
>>702853825
The iss is definitely up there, it's not hard to see. The fact of the mater is the only way it could stay up there (that logically makes sense) is that it's orbiting us.
If the earth is flat....what's under it?
So, when you get to one side of the world, do you just teleport to other side? Or?
humans are so stupid. I mean, back then when people believed earth was flat, they had these beautiful wooden ships with tall masts that sailors also used as a spotting location. If the earth was flat why would you need to get to a higher position to increase your view range?
>>702844025

Idk maybe the ISS has multiple light sources so it can properly take photographs or maybe it is just a government conspiracy that has been debunked by hundreds of scientist so instead you guys come here where it's easy to find weak subjects to troll with your false arguments that they can't prove false because they aren't educated on the subject
Tfw round earth is scientific fact so everything going on in this thread is just hypothetical
>>702854651
Camera on outside of lander, duh. Might be same one that showed the surface coming up as it landed.

Why the fuck do you think the radar mast is so fucking high? That is what makes a difference. Put a camera up there and do the same thing. Put it a few feet off the water and you want see shit. Don't be so dumb.

>>702854569
Thats how conpiraces works. They conivince uneducated people with pseudo-science, and """"evidences"""" that can be easly busted but this require knowlege with you don't have. Im not gonna tell you to do diging. I'm gonna tell you to educate yourself or talk with some profesor in nearest university.
>>702854445
Then why did the external pictures of the lander, taken by the astronauts, not show this camera ?? It cannot be found ..
>>702844025
>>702855065
not necessarily. either way i'm still not 100% convinced it is flat. i just think it's way more plausible that it isn't flat. i think only a small minority of people are trying to deceive us and most people just think it is round.

>>702844025
Look at this jet flying at a cruise altitude of 35,000+ feet. If the earth was flat it would not appear as if it were flying straight up into space. All has to do with the plane's height and distance from the observer.
>>702855912
Okay, so everyone has to be an astrophysicist to be qualified to argue here. Come on, where's your PhD? I'm waiting.

North hemisphere, this shit happens spinning around polaris. Which always lines up north of where your point of observation is.
South hemisphere, same effect centered around sigma octanis. South of the sun rise/set axis. Which always lines up south of where your point of observation is.
Please tell me why this doesn't shatter your flat earth model.
>>702856122
Ummm no. They are called polar routes and they are used all the time. Try learning something instead of just guessing.

Even if this anecdote is true, it doesn't help you prove anything.
At best, we are left to figure out what factors contribute to such (an unexpected?) outcome.

1. Coriolis force; all weather phenomenon dealing with cyclonic rotation. If the Earth is flat, why do storms etc spin counterclockwise in the north and clock wise in the south and have greater intensity near the poles and lesser intensity near the equater?
2. Why do we see the tip of a tall object before the base of the object as we walk towards it?
3. Why can't a person standing at the center of the 'disc', north pole for example, see antarctica with a powerful enough telescope and suitable height?
4. Why do summer and winter exist?
5. Why does the moon have phases?
