No

You can say
"The truth is simple. The earth is flat"
500 years ago.
Now people say
"The truth is simple. The earth is round"
But how can anyone be sure that in the future people will not universally say
"The earth is cubical."
If we are not certain that our current model will not change and cannot be improved by changing the shape, then we can conclude that we don't have the right shape.

We haven’t.

because people 500 years ago didnt know jack. They were misinformed and also believed in unicorns and fairies

they are not 'plate tectonics' they are 'plates'

tectonic is an interaction

Nobody has ever observed a lithospheric plate. To be specific. Yes, I looked it up.

hreppar microplate

@he vibin tho how can you therefore assert that 500 years later, a man from the future will not say
"The people of 2020 are ignorant."

And how can you assert that they will not conclude a different shape for earth

Well yea, we dont know everything. But the shape of the earth is accepted as common knowledge

You’re throwing out definitions, but you’re not really making a point to me, when you can’t show me tangible verification.

Same case 500 years ago

One year in the future people will look back at 2020 and say that.

Like humans have literally flew into fuqin space and saw the earth

we have witnessed plates

What if in the future, people flew out of the universe and looked at it from the outside, and said "Earth is a dodecahedron."

we even measure how they interact with each other

you cant fly out of the universe lol

Show me a picture of this plate in its entirety.

atleast not for trillions of years, and we will be dead

they are literally the size of continents

bruh

500 years ago, a man must have climbed atop a tall mountain, and said "earth is flat." They might also have thought "one cannot go into space which we do not know exists."

Big hiccup then if you ask me.

no

@Derek Nelson It would be the size of a continent, the only way to photograph it in its entirety would be from space, and you disavow space pics no matter how real the are.

Well the problem is, people didnt have rockets 500 years ago. There is a difference

Not impossible , people of the future may accomplish great feats

I mean you want a photo of a mass the size of a country, yet no space photos

Travelling out of the universe may well be one of their achievements

I can show you pictures of parts

I can prove space photos are fake.

LOL

Not merely claim.

ok do it

What does that look like to you?

that s lense distortion
