Felix Baumgartner supposedly went up 24 miles and made his "Red Bull" jump.
But according to Neil deGrasse Tyson, the curvature of the earth is not visible at 24 miles high.
See 2:10 to 3:15...
So needless to say, expert Neil determines that at 20 miles up, "That stuff is FLAT!!!"

I have not seen any "flat earther" promote the theory that they sun and all of the planets are spheres, and only the earth is flat.
lol

Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
You are missing the point, or ignoring it.
We can all see that the other planets are round or even a dinner plate if you will. You can see this yourself with binoculars.
Given that why are all the other planets (dinner plates) angled perfectly towards earth so that we always see the flat side? And if we aren’t falling off of this dinner plate but there is clearly an up and down, why aren’t rocks and dust and other items falling off of these other planets that are angled differently than earth compared to our up and down?

Never mind. I shouldn't have pointed it out. We should have just kept laughing AT you.
If you won't even admit you can look at an object similar to the moon called Mars, then there is no point in going any further.

If it is so obvious that Mars is a sphere, like the moon is a sphere, then post the pic of Mars the sphere.
And while you're at it, post the pic of the sphere moon.

But let's try this again. You brought up the moon. We can clearly see that with the naked eye it is round. If it is indeed flat like the earth, why is it tilted on a different plain than the earth? Same for the other points of light that we can see, some with the naked eye, others with binoculars or a telescope? Why are those on a different plain than we are? Why are all of these things always perfectly pointed at us so as we see the full round flat side and never the cross section view?

One sentence earlier you were chiding me for "attacking words I did not use," when I told you to post a pic(s) of these round objects.Lefty wrote:You brought up the moon. We can clearly see that with the naked eye it is round.
And now here you are admitting (obviously) that you believe the moon and planets to be round.
Drug test?
No, we cannot clearly see that the moon is round.
What we know is that the moon and planets give off light.
You are the one assigning shapes to them.
I do not know if they are tangible objects -- and I do not know what their shapes are.
They are, as the Bible says, lights (Genesis 1:14-15).

Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
Ok, this is why we laugh AT you. You can’t even admit the moon is round (not necessarily a sphere) despite seeing it thousands of times with your own eyes. You have faith in stories in the Bible and take them literally when no of it can be proved, yet you deny what your own eyes see.Softball Bat wrote: ↑Wed Apr 20, 2022 1:00 am No, we cannot clearly see that the moon is round.

Whatever, you do you in denying your own eyes.

Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
Btw, I've grown very accustomed to garbage performances from you fellas in these fl@t earth discussions, but you've sunk to a new low with this one.
A recap...
1. Jsc posts a link to an outfit claiming they that if you give them $125,000 they will take you up to the "edge of space," where you can see the curvature of the earth.
Are they Nigerian? :)
I respond by posting a video where one of THE go-to guys (NdGT) for space exploration and expertise BLATANTLY and DIRECTLY contradicts what Jsc's link presents.
Rather than address this -----> BIG PROBLEM, Jsc diverts and posts a goofball cartoon.
2. The problem is, no flat earther I know of pimps the cosmology presented in the cartoon.
I certainly do not.
The cartoon is a complete waste of time to comment on.
It means absolutely NOTHING.
It is the creation of a reprobate mind.
3. Yet Lefty wants to double (and triple) down on the silly cartoon.
He wants me to imagine that instead of what the cartoon presents, imagine the planets are all flat (as I assume the earth is).
He wants me to assume they are "dinner plates," even though he does not think they are, nor do I.
And with this bizarre premise, he wants me to explain how it could possibly be so.
lol
Wow.
I mean this in all sincerity, guys.
Get a grip.
Do some genuine research and begin to understand WHY what you assume to be true is complete nonsense.
These discussions will never work out well for you.

You on the other hand can’t admit to what you see with your own eyes. Your refusal to admit this means there is no point in discussing further because you deny basic observations.

Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
First off, he denied the existence of non-stop flights between cities in the Southern Hemisphere. It was shown to him that they exist and he pivoted to the airlines were flying at different speeds to keep up the facade.
I offered along withJSC to pay for him to take that flight. Of course he had some excuse as to why he couldn’t find time over a few years to take it for himself.

Instead of posting about what I have supposedly said, why don't you pull up the actual quotes -- and the threads these alleged quotes were in.

Your credibility is at stake here.
rotf...
What steadily escapes your Crisco-soaked brain is that flights, or what we assume to be flights, do not prove that your globe model is true.
It is a bit stunning that after a couple of years of letting this marinate in your head, you still haven't figured that out.
Why don't you take it?
Fully document it, video, links, pics of you and your lovely little lady, and entertain us here.
I have no interest in it.
It will not prove the globe to be true.
It might prove that the flight is consistent with the model you pimp.
Wow!
Water not clinging to the outside of a flying, spinning ball is consistent with the model I assume to be true.

Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
Our credibility is fine. Yours on the other hand..
But look at you moving the goalposts. I am focused on what you and the rest of the seeing world can observe with their own eyes. You want to deny that what you see is round.
Papa,
From KATL to KLAX may not be your best example. However, if you set your initial heading of 270 after leaving KATL, you might come close to KLAX, but you would fly a bit further than you might need to. But who knows what winds would be like or the weather along the way. Further compass headings really only matter in this discussion when passing over a pole. But we can't discuss that since flat earth guy denies the shape he sees with his own eyes when looking at the moon.

Re: A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread
The question is not that simple.
There is a sense in which "gravity" is true.
From NASA...
Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its center.
https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/what-is-gravity/en/
Where is the center of the earth, and assuming you've given an answer, how is it that you claim to know this?

Go up to the North Pole and pound the stake into the ground (ice).
Pull the rope tight and then begin walking to 270.
Keep walking until you return to where you began.

I was very lucky, it could have been much worse, I was scared the propane tank was going to explode. But really the only burns I have are my two legs below the knees. Better today but last night it hurt really really bad, nasty pain. My hair burned on my legs, arms, eye lashes, eye brow, and head.
