Proof the Earth is Flat

[Radagast]

Yea, I know what it is and what it isn't. Quite familiar. You have more to learn about it.

If you believe that there is a huge building somewhere with thousands of Japanese animators drawing real-time pictures of cloud and smoke for the Himawari, that's not how it works.

There really is a camera 36,000 kilometres up there.

I'm not going to watch it either. You know as well as everyone else the world isn't flat. If it was flat I wouldn't see a great big ole hill when I look out the window. The earth could be described as bumpy but not flat. Lol

Undulating in features, flat in structure.

Really and truly?? That 5-mile zoom must really protrude out the side of it lol.

Maybe a good question for us, and a side track but, what other things do we believe about the nature and structure of our existence that maybe be substantially wrong?

I don't, but thanks for demonstrating my point.

Evoution comes to mind.

Could you explain the earth's curvature to me. Also help me understand why, when we were on the moon video shooting Neil Armstrong and what have you. Why the guy with the camera didn't turn around and film the earth?

Apollo 8 already did that (similar shots were taken by Apollo 11). As with photographing the Moon from Earth, you need the right lens to take a good shot

What's to explain? The Earth is roughly spherical, with a radius around 6370 km. Visibility of distant objects is exactly as would be expected for a sphere of that size.

My questions to the flat earth people has never been answered.

1) Why are you so bothered by the shape of the earth? What does it matter?
2) If it is a hoax as you claim, why? Why would all these people collaborate and spend all that money on a hoax this large? What are they gaining?

Just as a rebuttal to that garbage pic. I recall a few years back when people were live-streaming images like this, pulled directly from the NASA archives, and then ran through Photoshop, adjusting the contrast, revealing the image on the earth was cropped and added later...

Then in 2015, after giving you that fake view of the earth from the moon, they give you this gem, as if we have no memory of the past fake crap they gave us. The source is here: The Dark Side and the Bright Side

No, it really wasn't. But I guess no amount of evidence will convince a true flat-earther.

It was evidence that made me a flat-earther. But I guess it isn't true. After all, you declared it so.

I read that flat earthers are still looking for the bath plug that lets the water drain from the flat earth?

It's in the South Pacific. The exact location is a closely guarded secret.

... for obvious reasons.

And I heard the globe earthers are still trying to demonstrate how water adheres to the outside of a hi-velocity arcing spinning oblate spaceball.

Gravity! Yay!

Gravity! Yay!

Your jokes get more hilarious with every turn Sir!

Oh is that why stuff keeps falling down!

If the Earth s flat, is it still round? If so what is the circumference? The circumference of the South pole in the global model is about 16,000Km. It would be fun to compare the two but I cant find any measures for flat earth circumfrence.
