@Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart yea, if I showed you a picture of round earth you'd call it fake, just like we are about to call that picture fake. So tell me, why should we believe that picture?

Gary is in detention now for being a troll.

Imagine a vast plane with but one tree smack in the middle. If the earth were flat, your vision would extend exactly as far while standing at the base of the tree as it would when at the top of the tree. However, the farther you climb, the farther your line of sight will extend to the horizon.
That's because parts of Earth that were concealed from view by its curvature are now revealed because your position has changed.
Back to the vast plane. The naked eye can see objects that are millions of miles away in space. Theoretically, with a clear line of sight on a clear night, one would also be able to see bright lights from far-away cities. That this is not possible is further evidence of a round, not flat, Earth.

@WaffleDolphin worry about yourself

2019-04-04 01:31:00 UTC  

Uhhh

2019-04-04 01:31:03 UTC  

dont

2019-04-04 01:31:06 UTC  

@GreenJay wrong

2019-04-04 01:31:12 UTC  

Explain?

2019-04-04 01:31:19 UTC  

I- I just have a question about a role

2019-04-04 01:31:32 UTC  

Optical slant. Visibility.

2019-04-04 01:31:38 UTC  

Jeez

2019-04-04 01:31:47 UTC  

Ok if this is a debate can it move to a debate channel?

2019-04-04 01:32:02 UTC  

Wtf

2019-04-04 01:32:02 UTC  

Ew

2019-04-04 01:32:22 UTC  

@WaffleDolphin .. if you had/have a "question about a role" ..you do not need to "@ mention" that role/s
--m'kay
thanks..

2019-04-04 01:32:34 UTC  

Oh ok

2019-04-04 01:32:45 UTC  

Stabilizers are mods.

2019-04-04 01:32:50 UTC  

The basic kind of mods

2019-04-04 01:32:52 UTC  

if you're on the right commercial flight, you might be able to see the curvature of the earth with your own two eyes.
In the event that you're not high enough, though, you can still experience the curvature of the earth another way. For example, if you were to fly all the way around the world, you'd find that it would be nighttime in part of the world and daytime in another part. In that way, the existence of time zones itself is proof that the Earth is round.

Taken another way, you wouldn't even need to travel through different time zones. Time zones are wide enough that you will see the sun rising and/or setting later in the western part of a time zone than in the eastern part. the sun will rise and set roughly four minutes later for every 70 miles you drive from east to west. you can note how much more of Earth you can see when you begin your ascent into the air than you can while you are sitting on the tarmac waiting to take off.

Regulators are mods

2019-04-04 01:33:13 UTC  

another lie @GreenJay

2019-04-04 01:33:24 UTC  

Proof?

2019-04-04 01:33:57 UTC  

Yeah, actually the way the sun works on a flat earth, Green, time zones still function.

2019-04-04 01:33:58 UTC  

Hold up quick question, Hollow earth theory, That's the belief there is hollow points where creatures could survive past extinction points correct? Or is there more I am genuinely curious

2019-04-04 01:34:02 UTC  

I don't call the evidence you provide as a "lie" So why do you treat mine that way

Brings me back to my first point, the boat

2019-04-04 01:35:02 UTC  

Do I have to retype it?

2019-04-04 01:36:02 UTC  

Pick a nice spot from which you can watch a sunset (we'll call this point A). Ideally, you'd have a clear horizon in front of you, and behind you would be some sort of elevated point that you can quickly access (a hill, a building with at least two floors, etc, we'll call this point B). Watch the sunset from point A, and once the sun is out of sight, hurry on over to point B. With the added elevation provided by point B, you should be able to see the sun above the horizon. If Earth were flat, the sun would not be visible at any elevation once it had set. Because Earth is round, the sun will come back into your line of sight.

Can you really feel something you've felt since birth?

2019-04-04 01:37:47 UTC  

Pick two locations that are some distance apart (at least a couple hundred miles from each other and on the same meridian). Grab two sticks or dowels (or other objects) of equal length, two tape measures, and a friend. Each of you will take one stick/dowel/object and one tape measure to your location, stick the object into the ground, and measure the shadow. (For accuracy, you should both take your measurements at the same time of day.) On a flat Earth, the shadow that is cast by each would be of the same length. However, if you and your friend compare notes, you'll find that one shadow was longer than the other. That's because, due to the curvature of Earth, the sun will hit one part of Earth at one angle and another part of Earth at a different angle even at the same time of day. This experiment has been around since about 240 B.C., when Greek mathematician Eratosthenes compared the shadows cast in both Syene—now Aswan, Egypt—and Alexandria on the summer solstice. Eratosthenes had learned of a well in Syene where once a year on the summer solstice, the sun would illuminate the entire bottom of the well and tall buildings and other objects would not cast a shadow. However, he noticed that shadows were being cast on the summer solstice in Alexandria, so he measured the angle of the shadow and found it to be an angle of about 7.2°.
