Alright, @Super_Trooper has been warned for '**Bad word usage**'.

freaking... that's sad
<a:RareTyler:555789458004377611>
Can we see Mars as a physical object?
<a:acongablob:445017498832601089>
yes
Prove it.
yes as a tiny dot
we need a massive telescope to see it
or just get a small one
I can't since you don't believe in images. Just go to your clisest observatory and they'll show you
a freaking... nikon 900 are you kidding me thats horrible as "proof"
All you have are images to prove mars is terrestrial? No actual proof?
yet you believe the nikon
what if there's no mars at all
only bueno's
like I said, go to your nearest observatory but you seem to be too stubborn for that
If something's there
In your field of vision
You can most likely touch it
Thats like you said
Grass is green you dont to prove it because we can see it
Without being in the sky, it is impossible to see the curvature of the Earth. However, you can always see a demonstration of this if you visit a harbor or any place with a wide-open view of the water.
If you are able to watch a ship sail off to sea, watch its mast and flag as it fades off into the distance. You will notice that, in fact, it does not "fade off into the distance" at all; instead, you will see its mast and flag appear to slowly sink. The ship sailed beyond the point at which you would see it. Just to be sure, bring a pair of binoculars with you so that you can see even farther off into the distance.
It's as if you're watching it go over to the other side of a hill. This phenomenon can only be explained by a sphere-shaped planet.
explain this to me
We can literally see Mars is not a physical object.
earth is round
its a globe
Then you should go to a telescope
so Mars is metaphysical or what?
It’s definitely celestial. Not something we can travel to.
mars is a round full grown planet
how is it celestial and non physical?
floating around in our fishbowl
Solar eclipses get all the attention, but if you are able to catch a glimpse of a lunar eclipse, you can see evidence that the Earth is, indeed, round. Here's how it works: Earth passes between the moon and sun, so that the sun projects Earth’s shadow onto the Moon in the night sky. You've probably seen a partial lunar eclipse without even noticing it; if the moon looks orange, that's a sign of a lunar eclipse. If you've ever seen a total lunar eclipse, you probably noticed that the shadow did not look like this.
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.
yes a TV show is the same as Nasa
