If the Earth is basically a flat, 2D disc moving upward presenting the "illusion" of gravity, then what are the other celestial bodies? Are they also flat? And if there is no gravity, why or how would they pull on the Earth?
But why would anyone wish to perpetrate such a scam? What possible benefit would come from all of the governments and scientists of the world deceptively in support of gravity and a round Earth? Why go through all that trouble, time, money, and effort? The who point of science is to figure out how and why things work and behave the way they do. A world-wide conspiracy to push made-up ideas of gravity and a round Earth would be the antitheses of science. What reason could there possibly be to do this?
Ok, so this all has to be a joke, right? I saw you mention KFC before, but wasn't sure what you were referring to. Based on the context, "Kentucky Fried Chicken" never entered my mind.
Innumerable folks have been high enough to see the curve of the Earths surface....many with no ties to military or NASA agencies. For every one high flyer you find that wasnt able to discern the shape at extreme altitude Im sure theres 10 ten that have. Like I said there is no shortage of photographic,video and eyewitness documentation.
Wha..wha...wha...wait. One sec. LOL The mathematics based on macro scale celestial bodies in our solar system are based on fact with Newtonian mechanics. Regarding larger bodies such as galaxies not so much. A flat earth and metallic disk sun troll? http://www.google.com/imgres?q=flat...10_10_01_archive.html&docid=USf_Y-KVmpjXSM&w= NAW MUST BE FLAT!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eratosthenes This guy proved the earth was round over 2000 years ago. Gravity is still not understood by scientist but if we can use equations that use the gravitational constant to navigate a probe from the Earth to Saturn, I'm pretty sure that theory holds much more weight (pun intended) then your theory of acceleration.
Incorrect. Was the enlarged LOL meant to inform that you were laughing really enthusiastically, or so I would see it?
Felix, I would ask that you please answer the questions that I posed. They will help me understand this viewpoint. And once more, you still have not answered why you believe these things?
What you have done here most noble of gentlenmen, is made a statement, claimed the details were based on fact and provided nothing of sunstance to back it up. Which is essentially what I have done thus fat save for my documented historical truth pertaining to NASA, KFC. And then you post some nonsense link.
Most kindly of gentlemen, I submit my apologies if you feel I have prevaricated or evaded you. I could be mistaken as I have completely deprived myself of sleep now for three days and I feel a bit disorientated, however I do not think you have asked any questions which have gone ignored. As for why I believe in FE. It looks flat to me. Despite what some have claimed you cannot see any curvature from any altitude within an aircrafts ability. NASA and KFC are definitely up to something. They have been involved with murder,(many many investigators have placed everything together however there have been no convictions) large amounts of NASA funding has a history of basicly vanishing, completely unaccounted for. And working with enemies during wartime to advance some sort of plan. They were caught working with the USSR shortly after WW2 trading german rocket scientists. Working together to develope the technology so that the russians could launch sputnik, only so that the americans involved could ascertain the exorbitant budget they wanted. This is not all the stuff of conspiracy, and there is much much more. I have to be careful what I post for I do fear KFC agents as they have attempted attacks on a very close associate of mine.
Of course just because they are up to something does not necssarily mean its to cover up a FE. And of course just because 'it looks flat to me', doesnt mean anything either. However it is what has led to the investigations and experiments which have detected no curvature.
You're right. This internet video proves there is no gravity. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBQNQ6qzCA0"]‪Cat Face‬‏ - YouTube[/ame]
That nonsense link is why the earth couldn't possibly be round. You are the first person who believes the earth is flat that I've ever meet. Einstein really was right human stupidity is infinite.
http://www.google.com/imgres?q=spac...docid=88ga4zsak-9A3M&w=1920&h=1200&ei=WKUxToP Nope, not curved at all. Now if you were arguing a holographic universe than the earth would technically be flat but I don't think you have the slightest clue what physics is let alone the holographic model.
I dont know what image you were looking at as it will not appear for some reason. If it was a space photo I would refer you to an earlier post. So you dont think I have a clue.? I think I could say the same to you as your earlier defense of a spherical earth fell flat. So far the only thing you have done is evaded inquires. I could make a few geusses on what you may or may not have clues on, as that is your prefered way of putting it, but I find it counterproductive to this most excellent thread and its equally impressive purpose.
Since the equator is roughly 25000 miles long, we can expect that the sun spot light illuminates an area with a diameter of about 12500 miles. Let's say we're standing at a point where the sun passes right above us at a height of 3200 miles. By the time the sun sets, it has traveled about 6250 miles and is about 7000 miles away from where we stand. Therefore, the sun is more than two times larger at midday than at sunset. That's a prediction of this flat earth theory. It can be easily checked by everyone. Unfortunately, the angular diameter of the sun doesn't change nearly as much throughout the day. I guess we need a better flat earth model. That's disappointing, but I have to ask another question. Is it a fact or a theory that the earth is flat?
The area which could be illuminated would be determined by A. The size of the sun, and B. How high the sun is. This can be easily elucidated by A simple flashlight demonstration adjusting the flashlight tip in distance from a surface. Excellent post though good brother., and it is fact.
Question, why hasn't anyone fallen off the earth yet? This is priceless. http://encyclopediadramatica.ch/Flat_Earth_Society
Have you read the enrire thread? If you understood what was said regarding FE circumnavigation you may have better insight. You have assumed here good brother. The earths edge is not some sort of waterfall.
No, it's a giant icewall preventing all the water from falling off. The sun and moon are a few thousand feet from the flat earth. The earth is infinite and there is an anti-moon. HOLY ROFL PIE. EPIC TROLLS ARE EPIC. I refuse to believe people are capable of such degree of stupidity. Therefore, they must be trolls.
Q: "When traveling in a straight direction, you will always reach the same point on the globe from where you started. How can this happen if the world is flat?" A: You need to have evidence for this to be true. Also, define "straight." Remember, the northern point on the compass is pointing toward the center of the Earth. If you follow your compass due east or due west, ending up at the same point you started from, you have just gone around the world in a circle. Thus, circumnavigation is possible on FE. Q: "If you go directly south won't you eventually fall off the edge of the Earth?" A: Yes, you will. In order to use this fact as proof you need to record a video of someone flying directly south around the world without falling off the edge. Furthermore you need to prove that your navigational equipment allows you to travel directly south without deviating. Q: "Are there flat Earth models based on a combination of religion and science?" A: Yes. Here is an alternative model from the Flat Earth Believers forum. This model is compiled by levee. Ohh man thx for the laughs.
you have brought forth an outdated explaination written by someone who put together a rudimentary synopsis of FET which noone agrees with entirely. If you are going to make inquiries on this thread, it only makes sense to ask me, rather than invoke articles from anonymous authors and then thank me as if I provided them. It is I who owe you for the laughs good brother.
