From the conversions I found, the earth drops 8 inches per mile. Let's assume for this that the apps are 50 miles away. It would've only gone down 10 meters or 32 feet. People are just extremely underestimating earth's sircumference

2019-07-14 08:48:02 UTC  

It's 8 inches per mile squared. If it was 8 inches per mile it would be a slope.

if it was squared it would be a parabola

2019-07-14 08:50:19 UTC  

Earth could be seen as a neverending slipe

2019-07-14 08:50:26 UTC  

Slope*

2019-07-14 08:50:37 UTC  

na, not really

2019-07-14 08:50:57 UTC  

8 inches per mile squared is an approximation that works for short distances

2019-07-14 08:51:21 UTC  

It describes a parabola, not a circle

2019-07-14 08:51:58 UTC

2019-07-14 08:55:30 UTC  

The whole point is, the alps thing is very easily disprovable. Earth isn't the size of mercury

2019-07-14 08:57:33 UTC  

If you calculate on what you should be able to see you shouldn't be able to see the mountains.

2019-07-14 08:57:59 UTC  

Also, that autocad table isn't very useful

2019-07-14 08:58:39 UTC  

Why?

2019-07-14 08:59:15 UTC  

Because it shows the drop from the tangent, not from the line touching the horizon

2019-07-14 09:00:17 UTC  

Look at the diagram on https://www.metabunk.org/curve/

2019-07-14 09:00:25 UTC  

It explains

2019-07-14 09:01:15 UTC  

I use that one too

2019-07-14 09:03:55 UTC  

Strap a gopro to a weather balloon and see for yourself. Argument over

2019-07-14 09:04:40 UTC  

Now what?

2019-07-14 09:05:36 UTC  

Source of the NASA photo?

2019-07-14 09:05:53 UTC  

The flat one is very obviously computer generated. Just look closely

2019-07-14 09:06:37 UTC  

No trees or buildings and looks extremely fake

2019-07-14 09:07:42 UTC  

Wait they both look fake what

2019-07-14 09:07:51 UTC  

All nasa photos show curvature.

2019-07-14 09:08:20 UTC  

So the earth is round

2019-07-14 09:09:03 UTC  

I asked for a source of the NASA photo because the 100k feet seems wrong

2019-07-14 09:09:12 UTC  

Nah I think NASA is playing with us. We can't verify what they say is true

2019-07-14 09:09:40 UTC  

We?

2019-07-14 09:09:55 UTC  

Look at photos from there and you will see some like the one I posted

2019-07-14 09:10:07 UTC  

We as in you and I

2019-07-14 09:10:30 UTC  

You cannot speak for me

2019-07-14 09:10:39 UTC  

Or rather images it is.

2019-07-14 09:10:41 UTC  

Or anyone

2019-07-14 09:10:58 UTC  

Can you verify NASA is telling the truth?

2019-07-14 09:11:21 UTC  

Can you verify that they are lying?

2019-07-14 09:11:43 UTC  

I'd rather trust a government funded space agency then a skeptic making flat earth memes in his/her basement

2019-07-14 09:11:46 UTC  

I can verify that something doesn't add up

2019-07-14 09:12:35 UTC  

I literally have an app that shows me a live broadcast from the ISS

2019-07-14 09:12:49 UTC  

And that can't be faked?
