Hey @Silly Rabbit, Trix Are For Kids

How are you?

decent

how you been?

I've been alright.

good

Glad to see chat has calmed down.

yeah

I wanted to ask for some of the reasons you believe the earth is flat

Its what we inherently know. When we are born we all know its flat, until corrupted and told otherwise @Aba🥀 the same reason every human ever has known its flat until the 1920s when governments and walt Walt Disney alongside nazi wernher von braun started nasa and brainwashed us all.

You do know that Von Braun was in Germany until after WW2?

But people before 1920 believed the earth was round, they saw that boats disappeared on the horizon and how it was caused because of the curvature of the earth

could they see the curvature?

They could see the boats sink on the horizon and them still come back

thats not what i asked

I mean if you take a sphere and move something from the top around it theres gonna be points where you cant see it

If thats what you mean by seeing curvature then yes

Maybe that's because seeing curvature isn't that easy, and boats "sinking" behind it implies a curvature

so then the earth is not too big to see curvature?

I mean if you want curvature nasa has photos

cool story

i think you dont know what a photo is

So does SpaceX, ArianeSpace and so many other companies

no they dont

A picture taken from a camera that captures a frame in time?

SpaceX even has a livestream when launching

Or if you want you can take a plane and you can see the world curve/drop off at a certain point

@Aba🥀 that's tricky though, since there is *some* distortion by the glass

Dont look at the sides then

Lmao

like this?

Look straight

You mean how it drops off in africa?

Yet africa exists
