Even if we see it the globe model excuse is it’s a mirage like Chicago from Michigan
Astral isn’t a glober
Spare me the word play.
He defends it though sometimes
I know he isn’t.
Hypothesis' are meant to be falsifiable and testable, I can't really hide behind it
Even if we measure the boat and it’s ten or 20 miles out they will say mirage

I believe what can be observed
And verified by the populace
Globers often try to hide behind it, by spending so much time debating what hypothesis even means. It’s like if I were to ask them if they know what the shape of the earth is, they would reply with, ‘it depends what your definition of ‘is’, is.. It’s exhaustingly redundantly obfuscating.
I never see that happen myself, so idk where you chat
Hello
Hi
The same areas that produce arguments where they try to undermine observation. Because it doesn’t support them.
what do you guys think about this
How high is that balloon?

does it matter?
i can see the corners of the flat earth in that video 👀👀👀
Fisheye lenz showing curve doesn't show actual horizon, just distortion
yeah i thought you were gonna say that
kinda weird how nothing in the end of the video was curved either
You never really see that much curve from high altitude balloons, and they can only go so high.
Tho I reckon variables with the camera view might affect apparent curve.
That video is what @Deleted User asked for one time
Chris wanted a go pro
I didn't know that video existed but tbh it didn't go high enough!
@cocobanana show me the curvature formula and tell me it doesnt go high enough
This is part of why I don't focus on high altitude photos and footage anyways
*"The high-elevation horizon is almost as sharp as the sea-level horizon, but its contrast is less than 10% that of the sea-level horizon. Photographs purporting to show the curvature of the Earth are always suspect because virtually all camera lenses project an image that suffers from barrel distortion. "*

@Deleted User did you watch the video that @Deleted User posted
Isn't that what you were asking for the
One day
lol
why doesnt it look directly at the horizon?
