fish eye lens?

Except the thing about fish eye lenses is that the whole image will be distorted..

i think ... in some other pictures, you word 'zenith' on the capsule thing appears distorted when background 'curved'

and looks normal when background 'flat' ...

 

[PizzaChief]

looks flat as the WACA from inside

maybe they forgot the fish eye for that one?

Here's an image taken with a fish eye lense that shows a flat horizon.. By your logic this proves the earth is round..?

 

[PizzaChief]

And here is a random photo I found on the internets that proves the earth is in fact concave..?!

no, not proof about anything, just implying that lens can be deceptive and nasa several former nazis

 

[PizzaChief]

no, not proof about anything,

Correct

 

[cannot]

Correct

for the sake of correctness;

lots of proof nasa pack of largely former nazis that i wouldnt be trusting too much,

and proof that various lens can have various optical illusions



no doubt you would agree

If the earth is flat then the edges must be like in pacman where you go in 1 side and pop out the other. That sounds kinda fun.

I'll also say that anyone who thinks the earth is flat obviously doesn't realise that their map is not a literal model of the earth and they should be shamed.

An article in Popular Science in August 1931 described their journey:
"The story of their adventure surpasses fiction. During the ascent, the aluminum ball began to leak. They plugged it desperately with vaseline and cotton waste, stopping the leak. In the first half hour, the balloon shot upward nine miles. Through portholes, the observers saw the earth through copper-colored, then bluish, haze. It seemed a flat disk with upturned edge. At the ten mile level the sky appeared a deep, dark blue. With observations complete, the observers tried to descend, but couldn't. While their oxygen tanks emptied, they floated aimlessly over Germany, Austria, and Italy. Cool evening air contracted the balloon's gas and brought them down on a glacier near Ober-Gurgl, Austria, with one hour's supply of oxygen to spare."[2]

Like this one:

On October 5th, 1839 another explorer, James Clark Ross began a series of Antarctic voyages lasting a total of 4 years and 5 months. Ross and his crew sailed two heavily armored warships thousands of miles, losing many men from hurricanes and icebergs, looking for an entry point beyond the southern glacial wall. Upon first confronting the massive barrier Captain Ross wrote of the wall, “extending from its eastern extreme point as far as the eye could discern to the eastward. It presented an extraordinary appearance, gradually increasing in height, as we got nearer to it, and proving at length to be a perpendicular cliff of ice, between one hundred and fifty feet and two hundred feet above the level of the sea, perfectly flat and level at the top, and without any fissures or promontories on its even seaward face. We might with equal chance of success try to sail through the cliffs of Dover, as to penetrate such a mass.”

This thread is seriously as great as the Crisco Hampers one on the GD board

The theory of relativity he described as "a mass of error and deceptive ideas violently opposed to the teachings of great men of science of the past and even to common sense." "The theory, "he said, "wraps all these errors and fallacies and clothes them in magnificent mathematical garb which fascinates, dazzles and makes people blind to the underlying errors. The theory is like a beggar clothed in purple whom ignorant people take for a king. Its exponents are very brilliant men, but they are metaphysicists rather than scientists. Not a single one of the relativity propositions has been proved."

apparently this is what earth official looks like:

the the Crisco Hampers one on the GD board is the only thread title that has made me laugh

So we take the words of someone in a balloon in 1931, or someone in 1839 that the Antarctic is really big as evidence of a flat earth....but we shouldn't listen to astronauts, pilots or the millions of other bits of evidence that the earth is a globe because they're in on the lie.

**** me.

scientists and inventor whom the star trek piccard was based on that went very high in a pre nasa era

not someone

or someone in 1839 that the Antarctic is really big as evidence of a flat earth....

i did not claim it as 'evidence

but we shouldn't listen to astronauts, pilots or the millions of other bits of evidence that the earth is a globe because they're in on the lie.

you are allowed listen to who you want

bill clintons autobiography is a good start

**** me.

no thanks

Don't try logic, it won't work. It takes a certain lack of logic for someone to believe 1 man from 80 years ago instead of thousands of scientists with access to more up to date information.

 

[cannot]

logic 'eh

Don't try logic, it won't work. .

Day after day, alone on the hill
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he's just a fool
And he never gives an answer

But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning around

Well on the way, head in a cloud
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice

You need help. Those photos are clearly manipulated 'pano' shots.

Those photos are clearly manipulated 'pano' shots.

the photos were manipulated to fit in the one picture - but they are not 'fake' photos, are they? as a benchmark take into account... nasa.gov , how earth pictures , all the existing pictures of earth are composite images and were photoshopped into a ball. (apparently)

dont forget it looks like this:

just like the high priest explains:

You need help.

isnt it interesting how many photography, optics, lenses experts there are in this place you experts should make your way to the
If man never went to the moon...
discussion and lend your expertise

i find it interesting you alluding to 'logic' (or 'feelings') would led us to think 'tis flat in some scenarios previously ... 500 years of indoctrination and you still felt that in your loins

there is even music too: pretty catchy

[Heisenberg_]

believing the earth is flat is as ******ed as believing you live on a ball in infinite space hurtling around with 'black holes' and 'anti-matter'. neither model is supported by sufficient evidence.

It's not remotely the same.
People believe that we live on a globe shaped planet because we ****ing well do, so much proof of this fact as opposed to the delusional ramblings of a complete moron that has somehow sucked in incredibly naive people into thinking it's a possibility.

We are just as likely to be living in a simulation that could possibly be flat and we are just getting the perception our planet is a globe.
We are not hurtling around space because there is no space,that's why the stars appear so small. If we try to travel to these stars,or look at them,the simulation will open up to those people looking.
Of course we can't just stand on a planet spinning around travelling through some so called space,it makes no sense at all.
Don't be fooled by this globe earth gibberish because that's what you think you can see,or that's all we know so far,it's only our perception.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

"Don't be fooled by reality, it's just a perception."

I might use that.

 

[Noseybonk]

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

That is amazing.

 

[darthbards]

"Don't be fooled by reality, it's just a perception."

I might use that.

Our reality though is is only our perception,it doesn't mean it is the all. We can only see,hear,smell,taste or touch what we have been designed or programme to, and this effects our perception.
Our knowledge will improve though and this whole globe earth nonsense will eventually be seen for what it truly is.
Living on a spinning ball,hurling through space,it's just a laughable as anything else but that's what we accept because that's what we have always been told.
