Even if we see it the globe model excuse is it’s a mirage like Chicago from Michigan

Astral isn’t a glober

2019-05-11 19:47:55 UTC  

Spare me the word play.

He defends it though sometimes

2019-05-11 19:47:59 UTC  

I know he isn’t.

Hypothesis' are meant to be falsifiable and testable, I can't really hide behind it

2019-05-11 19:48:41 UTC  

Even if we measure the boat and it’s ten or 20 miles out they will say mirage

I believe what can be observed

2019-05-11 19:49:45 UTC  

And verified by the populace

2019-05-11 19:51:27 UTC  

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.

2019-05-11 19:52:30 UTC  

I never see that happen myself, so idk where you chat

2019-05-11 19:52:54 UTC  

Hello

2019-05-11 19:54:28 UTC  

Hi

2019-05-11 19:54:37 UTC  

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

2019-05-11 19:57:21 UTC  

How high is that balloon?

2019-05-11 19:57:24 UTC

2019-05-11 19:58:18 UTC  

does it matter?

2019-05-11 19:58:29 UTC  

i can see the corners of the flat earth in that video 👀👀👀

2019-05-11 19:58:31 UTC  

Fisheye lenz showing curve doesn't show actual horizon, just distortion

2019-05-11 19:58:45 UTC  

yeah i thought you were gonna say that

2019-05-11 19:59:43 UTC  

kinda weird how nothing in the end of the video was curved either

2019-05-11 19:59:46 UTC  

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.

2019-05-11 20:00:06 UTC  

That video is what @Deleted User asked for one time

2019-05-11 20:00:12 UTC  

Chris wanted a go pro

2019-05-11 20:00:30 UTC  

I didn't know that video existed but tbh it didn't go high enough!

2019-05-11 20:01:43 UTC  

This puts down my thoughts on it quite well

2019-05-11 20:02:35 UTC  

@cocobanana show me the curvature formula and tell me it doesnt go high enough

2019-05-11 20:04:06 UTC  

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

2019-05-11 20:05:44 UTC  

Isn't that what you were asking for the

2019-05-11 20:05:47 UTC  

One day

2019-05-11 20:06:32 UTC  

lol

2019-05-11 20:06:40 UTC  

why doesnt it look directly at the horizon?
