I've seen a satellite in a telescope once

The positional drift on a non skew-corrected gps signal would be off by roughly 10km in a day's time.

You can literally watch Sputnik with the naked eye on a clear night.

@Smartyrdom thank you was trying to recall from memory years ago

Firstly, my friend

That's not what a satellite looks like.

I was once told some satellites use pulsars to locate themselves?

That's a cartoonist impression of a satellite

+20 hoax points

Right off the bat

looks like atmosphere/weather thing

^

If I were to venture a guess, atmospheric monitoring equipment

But no, this is all part of the Big Globe conspiracy.

I had to look the numbers up. I'm actually curious now about maintaining the power requirements on a Rubidium oscillator for the timing, the microprocessing to correct for GR, and the signal RX/TX

GPS doesn't receive many signals they mainly transmit location and time

Yeah, it looks like an atmospheric monitor to me too.

The issue with Flat Earth conspiracies is that you've set yourselves up with a religious sort of infallibility

Every counterexample is proof of the conspiracy.

but it works both ways

how long would flights to Australia be on a flat earth?

every example you have proves my point

Instead of God's Plan it's "The government is lying"

***that's why you're wrong***

lol no amount of cute text will make it any different

You've violated every principle of objectivism

just because you happen to be surrounded by people in your life who also believe the same lies as you does not mean that you are correct

It's a closed system. Everything outside the system is just evidence to support it.

I'm blanking on the formal term at the moment.

You're right! That's a very strong argument agasint Flat Earth conspiracies

this is going nowhere but I'm enjoying every second of it

@Pretentieux pot-kettle-black

Dass raciss

@Dawlben what do you know?

The people who believe in them are surrounded by the same dogmatic nonsense

you know who i am and who i know?

@Pretentieux just because you happen to be surrounded by people in your life who also believe the same lies as you does not mean that you are correct

but that is wrong!

nobody believes me!

so you can't do that!
