RE: THE FLAT EARTH CON – BOLLOCKS 101
You also might like the Popular Science article on Auguste Piccard and what he saw from the edge of space. Here's a video on it:
Again, I'm not sold one direction or the other at this point, but this is another really interesting story that never gets talked about. Individually, these things don't "prove" anything, but collectively they paint a very interesting picture that we should be paying attention to.
So are you unsure if you are a flat earther? -I'm not sure if it's necessary to be agnostic about this, it's not that confusing really...
No, I'm Earth model agnostic, not Earth model confused. It could be the Earth is even way bigger than we are told. It could be that the Earth is a hyper dimensional space. It could be a number of things. The point still is, there are no empirical tests that I have seen done from the surface of the Earth that can prove it's round. No engineering takes into account in their designs that it's round (e.g. tunnels, altimeters, etc.) Even with air refraction, we can see far further than the curvature would ever allow. Then there's other BS given to us to "indicate" a globe model, like aluminum satellites that survive 4,000+ F in the Thermosphere? Liquid fuel engines give thrust without surrounding air pressure? There are a lot of questions, questions, questions. If you can already answer all these open questions with clear proofs then I'll believe whatever model that these proofs point to. It could be shaped like a f'n bunny rabbit for all I care. This is called the scientific method. You follow where the provable evidence leads you, and not what you would like it to be or already assume it to be.
Doesn't flying all the way around the globe in a plane count? (yes I looked out the window!)
I'm not looking for interesting stories - just PROOF - which for obvious reasons has never been filmed...
