Nobody calls a mountain a dome..
Cuz it’s not a dome
Well it's a dome of ice
On a mountain
Because the mountains are taller than 13k feet
It’s all speculative anyway.
Even in Antarctica
Point is, a flat earth doesn’t need to disprove what can’t be proven. Aka, curvature.
But it can be proven
No.
How can we prove curvature? That is the entire question
Well if you do any amount of research from a credible source than you will see that the earth is not flat
Nasa isn’t credible?
I'm bored, I wan't information about earth and NASA
That is interesting that they specifically emphasize a flat non rotating earth for airplanes and helicopters
Gee, no kidding.
So I was looking up salt flats as proof of flat earth because they are huge expanses totally flat
But then what I found said they prove curvature
"Once there, go the speedway track starting line. Take a picture of any car parked there. Then head out over the track. At about 3 + miles away look back, and you will notice that all those cars and structures at the starting line are no longer visible.
Take a pair of binoculars or a small telescope with you on that trip. So that you can look back and verify that all is gone - hidden beneath the curvature of the Earth.
And you need to make sure you travel the entire 10-miles of the track. Then look back, once again at "starting line," (which is not visible).
Congratulations! You have now proved to yourself that you live on a globe curved Earth."
@Green Knight optical slant. Angular resolution
Why can’t we see Africa from Florida?
@waffleking angular resolution. And visibility
What does that mean exactly
WHAT CAUSES GREAT VISIBILITY?

I want you to explain it to me not some YouTube video
This is basics information of how the human eye or lenses work and how light works
So there can't be a firmament because meteors get through
The human eye has an angular resolution of .02 degrees
@Green Knight <#538929818834698260>
We have telescopes that can see hundreds of thousands of miles into space. Why can’t we see Africa from Florida
Visibility
Too much dust and stuff in the air
Can you see the stars when its cloudy?
Plus...
You just asserted the stars hundreds of thousands of miles away. Might be true. Might not be.
So are we saying all the images of galaxies and nebulae and starfields etc are fake?
What images?
Or just projections inside the firmament dome?
