What is Trump doing, hopefully he finds out why we never went back to the moon :scratch:

Internet takes aim at Trump's Space Force - CNN Video
:flushed:
I think they all have to pledge to boldly go into the coes-moes (cosmos) like GW Bush - then not go boldly into the coes-moes. So disappointing every time, when it doesn't happen. Many are hoping that mankind will 'go on' to Mars, and that it wont be fake.

Yet when I show photographs by NASA showing impossible differences in the size of Earth between two of their photographs, you claim I'm a troll?

Either you are utterly ignorant of perspective, or you are a troll.

1) Augustine did consider it unlikely for there to be people living in the southern hemisphere since he considered the distances and geographic obstacles far too great to traverse. He was, of course, wrong.

2) This isn't relevant. Augustine's advice would apply even to himself where he speaks wrongly.

You say Saint Augustine was wrong. I say prove it. There are no antipodes, for the Earth is not a ball.

Correct. It is a planet having an oblate spheroidal shape. All available evidence supports this conclusion.

EDIT: I should say all verifiable, tested, and scientifically reliable evidence. Because who knows what nonsense you can find on the internet these days.

Because Brother the truth will set us free from lies, this is only me sharing my thoughts on this and why I'm starting to believe the Earth is flat being circle flat and not a globe/sphere but I'm still looking into it and finding out much about it. to me only I don't think we ever really went to the moon and if so why we are not going back anymore.
gotta go for now guys. God bless

If the earth is a flat disk, then how could we explain night and day?

...is it like a frisbee that flops end over end? In that case, there could be life on the bottom, because it would be exposed to the same ratio of sunlight and darkness as the top! :)

Prove there are people who live in the southern hemisphere? Okay, go to Google and type "Australians".

There are no antipodes, for the Earth is not a ball.

Except, of course, the earth is round.

To the unteachable, all proof is seen as lies and fakes. Attempting to teach the unteachable is an exercise in futility.

They say that the sun travels a loop over the top of the disk.

Of course, if that was true, the sun would change in size during the day, and would never approach the horizon. And it's a bit of a mystery why night happens. But they never want to talk about those obvious flaws.

Don't forget the shapeshifting lampshade!

I just can't believe anyone would think that. I mean, I can understand not believing some theories, but facts? Wow. :worried:

Yeah, I struggle to understand the point of view, other than that it's "everything I see on YouTube is gospel truth."
