Hi there, myself and a few friends have just found this server, but we aren't very sure of where to start, would anyone like to help point us in the right direction?

I am not entirely sure. I listened to some Mark Sargent and I didn't find it all crazy. What are your thoughts?

I think we are all questioning.

When was the last time NASA used its funding for public service????

I love how they manufactured a drama about a hole in the ISS to try to get people more interested in their hackery

Where would we go to start talking more seriously about the flat earth phenomena?

Surely the lounge isn't the best place.

The greatest empires in history navigated trade routes without accounting for "curvature" explain why we need to?

Let's go with mainstream for now?

Like I said I am not convinced the earth is flat the facts just don't really add up.

"facts"

I guess?

I don't know is there an in between?

I don't like Liberal Education if that's what you're asking!!!

So I want to ask?

https://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/ESRS/HDEV/

What is the flat earth take on this?

Where can we go for serious discussion?

I don't want memes to be included

I am assuming that's what Lounge is about

Politically savvy? I don't know about that.

A good speaker, sure.

I don't have access?

Do we need to be on longer

So I work as a 3D modeler for a living and let me tell you, there's no way it is all fake?

I don't know, maybe it is an illusion of perspective or something but the sheer volume of the space images

Questioning please

Hold up though

this is a cgi earth

this looks nothing like it?

Good point, but what about the evidence to the contrary

This is why I am questioning

what about this

Did you guys see the Salton Sea test

Yeah but how would they get different angles from the ISS

Do they move the cameras?

Or do they just move the ISS

Where else would someone take a picture from?

The moon?

How would they move the moon

This was the video that got me questioning

I have to be baked to feel anything at all 😂

If only email worked like that

So here is a picture I found of the ISS crossing the moon

Is this CGI

or is it a real picture?

It looks very real to me, you can even see the deformation of the mountains.

If the ISS can cross in front of the moon doesn't that mean that the Moon is round and therefore the Earth would be round?

I guess I should specify, the Earth would only be able to have the ISS orbit it if it was globular, right?

Is the ISS real?

The response has been pretty hostile so far honestly

I was hoping for reasoned debate

Zoom on the picture it looks a lot like the ISS is supposed to look

I feel like that's a little too dismissive for my tastes

idk

Hm

meanwhile this looks really distorted

look at the farmland, it curves like you would expect from using the warp tool in photoshop

rather than being straight lines as it should

unless the farms are all curved but that seems unlikely haha

I just made this in photoshop

notice how the lines are not consistent in width when aligned with a perfect circle

just to prove its actually a circle

do those lines all look like the same width to you

you can self assign tooth its easy

go click the emo ji

@Toothcake ufos?

googles

Who was MacArthur again? Dougles?

whats mainlaneder

i found the source

Or looming in the shadows

excuse me

i deal with enough communists every day thank you

ugh

here is a picture of "mars" how can they get that high quality

my phone struggles to download a video from the tower that is 20 minutes away

so either they made it up, or they have some super technology that apparently we aren't good enough to have

is anyone interested in talking in <#484515890759729182>

or are we just talking here

i want to know more about flat earth not commnunism

i bet they have like personal jets

but they don't give them to us

like what better way for us to see the round earth

you'd think they would want us to have them

My school complains about anti-intellectualism a lot but they don't want to talk about all this.

Isn't this just as intellectual?
