A load of ignorant fools mocking people with a different opinion to themselves.
The jokes on you.

It's a bit harsh calling yourself an ignorant fool. You just have a different opinion that's incorrect. You'll learn one day.

So are you on the batshit crazy flat side, or the obviously correct, dignified, and sound of mind pyramid/triangle argument?
 
All of you are dead set clowns.

The earth is triangular - get on my level.

Poppycock.

We are all just under a massive dome and another race of humans watch us like the Truman Show.

Debating whether pizza should have pineapple on it or not is a difference of opinion.
This is raving loonies trying to convince people that the world is flat.
 


Video of a curved earth.

The reason you can't see the entire earth from the ISS (as some people have requested)

Some perspective of scale -
Earth's diameter is ~12500km
Space station orbit ~340km
The space station is about 3% of the diameter away from the surface of the earth. Mostly all that it is ever going to see is a part of the globe. Hold a camera 0.5cm away from a basketball. Report back on whether you can see the whole globe.

I realise this thread moves pretty quickly (a bit like earth), but could any FE proponents address this post.
 
NASA believer...That's as bad as me quoting Eric Dubay.
It's a rolling video, FFS.


And I have no idea who Eric Dubay even is.

The only thing they're successfully convincing me of is that evolution isn't necessarily a one-way street. :$
 
The eye/camera simply cannot see the extent of the Earth to such a degree that you see marked curvature from low earth orbit. The horizon (where land meets sky/space) is always going to appear flat from such a close distance. Consider the "accepted" circumference of the Earth is 25,000 km. Consider the range of the eye/camera to take in all that.

For instance, the continent of Australia. You cannot see it from end to end with your own eyes or a camera even 100,000 feet in the air. You have to get even further away, further than even low earth orbit. And that's just Australia. So it doesn't add up that in low earth orbit the eye/camera would be able to "take in" the vast expanse of 25,000 kms of the entirety of the Earth to start seeing marked curvature. Yet all this fake shots of ISS looking at the Earth in the backdrop has a very exaggerated curvature to the Earth.

Consider the dogcam video....100,000 feet up....panning 360 degrees and it cannot take in the enormous breadth of the Earth....still looks flat.

Consider NASA themselves saying the Earth is so huge, and cameras so limited, that to create a single image of the Earth they have to take hundreds of slices of shots and try to piece them together because it's just so huge.

So, all these images/videos of the ISS looking at the Earth and you seeing a marked curvature is CGI. Playing with the lens to make it bend, or just some composite image green screened in the backdrop.

My humblest apologies for the unilateral actions of one moderator.

Please do not take this as a reflection of how we run this forum as a whole.
 
Woah!!!

I got transported to a completely different board.

It feels slightly less insane that the flat earth board

Absolute, pure unadulterated, bullshit.

Typical response of someone who everything he's ever been told and believed is starting to be shaken and it's just still unfathomable to that mind, that mind has to retort with a quick insulting jab. Foundation rocking really.

No, it's not foundation rocking, it's me shaking my head.

NASA put up a live video of a camera feed and instead of watching it, you claim from your almost non-existent understanding of cameras/lens and angles that is so readily apparent in this thread that it must be CGI.

It's mind numbing reading your complete ignorance of very basic and unwavering evidence that is put right in front of you.

Why would I watch a video from a fake organization like NASA? That's like you refusing to watch a video from some of the very decent youtube presentations I've posted here. NASA bullshits all the time. Where's that video.....brb.....
 
The worst part of the threads merged is that all the flogs from B13 who posted in the original thread when it was on B13, are now subscribed and getting alerts, so are right back in this NEW thread which was going well again -- people discussing (and some people insulting retorts) the topic more genuinely. Now all those people are going to start posting their inane daily chatter in here.
