Flat Earth

[MisO69]

Really there still people who believe in the flat earth theory?

When you ask yourself that question, ask yourself first: "Can I prove the Earth is round?" Disregard photos and videos from TV and internet. Without anything, could you prove the Earth is round?

Considering that there isn't anything that is flat - even a flat floor tile has bumps and ridges, even a flat sheet of steel has mountains and valleys under a microscope - odds are that the earth isn't flat right along with all the rest of the stuff.

What about a curvature when you look at the horizon?

There wouldn't be a horizon if there wasn't curvature. We would keep seeing as far as our eyes can focus, then we could use telescopes to see further. Also based on these flat earth models we would see the ice wall with telescopes. If that's not good enough we could use lasers to bounce off the ice wall and get accurate distances.

But we don't see those things do we? No.. instead we see a horizon due to curvature.

Interesting topic.
I've been always affascinated of jules verne romance.
I will read all the materials about the Flat Earth.

We cant really know, there is no solid evidenses that earth is round.

You have to be able to understand basic science to understand the evidence, I guess...  

Six airline routes that could not exist if the earth was flat:

Curious BD - you don't believe in flat earth but you do believe in a god.

What makes you decide which bullshit to back?

We can use as proof the pendulum that proving the rotation of the earth, it's called Foucault pendulum, if earth is rotating, it must be spherical, I am not insist tho, better just google it. Ok?

Flatards can't even understand one of the simplest experiments that anyone can perform to prove earth's rotation, what a surprise. I got cancer from the comments, thanks.

Of course earth is round, what could be the reason for doubts? But we are living in 2k, Columbus cries tears of sadness. Your school teacher commited suiside. Aliens will never contact us because of you. Everyone here became a little bit more stupid. Thank you.

is it really flat?

The Earth is a flat and motionless plane.

Well, if anyone doubt in shape of earth, there are many proofs, like Aristotle had suggested, go outside durring the lunar eclipse and watch on the moon, there is shadow of earth, it is round shape.
You're welcome.

"Selenelion"

Selenelion

A selenelion or selenehelion occurs when both the Sun and the eclipsed Moon can be observed at the same time. This can happen only just before sunset or just after sunrise, and both bodies will appear just above the horizon at nearly opposite points in the sky. This arrangement has led to the phenomenon being referred to as a horizontal eclipse. There are typically a number of high ridges undergoing sunrise or sunset that can see it. Although the moon is in the Earth’s umbra, the Sun and the eclipsed Moon can both be seen at the same time because the refraction of light through the Earth’s atmosphere causes each of them to appear higher in the sky than their true geometric position

This is not so simple question as it could be, yes we been lerning about it in school, but where are real evidenses that the earth is spherical? I don't see any.
