@NatureBoyWooo I probably know the flat earth theory, better than you do. To prove the earth a globe, all you have to do is observe the sun, throughout the course of a day. Notice how it maintains the same size throughout the day, whether it be sunrise, mid day overhead, or sunset, when it rather abruptly slides down below the horizon. Even at that point of sunset, still keeping the same size as it was earlier in the day. That alone, proves the earth a rotating globe. On your flat earth model of the sun going around in a circle, the sun would have to start out as a tiny little dot since it would be very far away, gradually getting larger and larger as it came closer to you, until its largest size of the day at mid day. Then, it would have to get smaller and smaller as it moved away from you, until just a tiny little pinpoint of light at sunset. Even in darkness, that tiny little pinpoint of light, would still be visible. Yet, that doesn't happen with the sun we see in reality. The sun in reality, doesn't get smaller and smaller. Doesn't get so small, until just a tiny little pinpoint of light, as it moves away from you. Instead, in reality, it maintains the same size throughout the course of a day, even at sunset. Thus, the earth is a rotating globe.

@NatureBoyWooo The earth makes one measly rotation in a 24 hour period. If you look at the big hand on an analog clock, the big hand would be moving twice as fast as the earth rotates. If you were on the moon looking back at the earth, it would look like it wasn't moving at all, though it would be. Stand there for an hour, and you'd notice it moved a few degrees. Now, before you start talking about 1000mph, maybe you need to understand how huge the earth really is. That's one of the main things flat earthers can't understand, how huge the earth really is. They are totally bamboozled by big things, huge distances, and big numbers like 1000mph. That's why they look at something that appears flat, and call it flat, even though it really isn't.

@HuWhiteNat "Does a pilot constantly have to adjust the nose of the plane down to compensate for the sphere?"
Why do you parrot the same, dumb, flat earth nonsense? This just proves your ignorance about altitude and how pilots fly planes, and no, many pilots don't admit the earth is flat. Pilots fly by altitude, using a device called an altimeter. They don't fly by straight lines, and worry about flying in a straight line out into space. Also, altitude is equidistant around the earth, so if you are flying a particular altitude, you just maintain that altitude, and ignore the curvature of the earth.

"If we are spinning at 1000 miles per hour even with gravity we should either perceive it or we wouldn’t be able to survive it. "
The earth makes one measly rotation in a 24 hour period. If you look at the big hand on an analog clock, the big hand would be moving twice as fast as the earth rotates. If you were on the moon looking back at the earth, it would look like it wasn't moving at all, though it would be. Stand there for an hour, and you'd notice it moved a few degrees. Now, before you start talking about 1000mph, maybe you need to understand how huge the earth really is. That's one of the main things flat earthers can't understand, how huge the earth really is. They are totally bamboozled by big things, huge distances, and big numbers like 1000mph and the sun being 93 million miles away. That's why they look at something that appears flat, and call it flat, even though it really isn't.

@timishere1925 Did you see this, that I posted above?
Here is a partial list of some of the best photos of the earth from space. Not CGI, Photoshopped, or composite. All shot on celluloid film.
AS17-148-22725 to 22751, that's 26 photos.
AS08-14-2383 to 2394, that's 12 photos.
AS08-15-2535 to 2580, that's 46 photos.
AS08-16-2588 to 2609, that's 22 photos.
AS11-44-6668 to AS11-44-6696, that's 29 photos.
AS11-36-5293 to 5309, that's 17 photos.
AS11-36-5317 to 5381, that's 65 photos.

@Ty-Leo False! There is no border control, no immigration officers, no police force, no nothing. Since no country owns Antarctica, no visa is required to travel there. If you are a citizen of a country that is a signatory of the Antarctic Treaty, you do need to get permission to travel to Antarctica. This is nearly always done through tour operators. If you are going on your own, you will most likely be asked to register your intended visit, list your travel plans and possible environmental impact, and agree to follow the regulations of the Treaty. If you come from a country that is not a signatory, you are not required to get a permit, but the ports that you leave from may insist that you have some sort of permission before you go.
I guess you think that if you can't go there to drill for oil, destroy native life, build permanent structures, leave trash, etc., that is some sort of infringement keeping you from going there? If that's the purpose you want to go there, then that will be frowned upon, and perhaps the boat or plane you were planning to take you there, wouldn't let you on board. The biggest obstacle keeping you from traveling to Antarctica is that it is expensive, it’s remote, it’s a harsh environment, and if something goes wrong it’s a long way to get the level of medical help you might conceivably need.

@tobyncummins "To debunk flat earth era once and for all the establishment only need to fly them down to Antarctica to prove once and for all that they were mistaken. "
That's a naive pipedream, at best. The establishment, whoever that is, wouldn't want to waste their time on what they perceive to be a relatively few group of people with mental problems. Flat earthers wouldn't volunteer for it, some too cowardly, for fear that their passionate flat earth fantasy world may be nothing but a fraud, and they couldn't take the embarrassment. Others would refuse, because they would seriously think that they were going to be taken and executed for their flat earth beliefs, never to be seen again. Maybe thrown over the edge, lol! Then others, like Eric Dubay, would never go, because it's too lucrative to keep up the show, enjoying that feeling of royalty, thus it's better to keep things the way they are. I don't think Eric Dubay personally believes the earth is flat, it's just a scheme for him.

"If i shine a small penlight on the ground"
If the penlight is the sun, and you're holding the penlight at arms length, and the scale is 2 miles by 2 miles, how is the penlight ever going to cover that scale of the earth? Even in a room the size of a gymnasium, you still wouldn't be able to cover the floor, and you would still be able to see a flicker of light from it on all corners of the gym floor. You seem to think that the sun is not as bright as it seems. The reality is that the sun is blindingly bright, and if only a pinpoint, you would still be able to see it. Look at the sun sometime and see how bright it is, hopefully you won't go blind in the process. Another problem, that in your theory, the sun gets smaller and smaller the farther away it moves. This is clearly false, just by observing the movement of the sun on a clear day. At sunrise, at mid day overhead, and sunset, the sun maintains the same size throughout the course of a day. Observe the sun setting at the ocean on a clear day. It certainly isn't getting smaller as it goes over the horizon. And again, it's going over the horizon, over the curve of the earth, not moving away and getting smaller as it goes.

@saltysergeant4284 I'm talking about covering the Earth in the circular motion you are talking about for flat earth. During that circular motion you are saying represents flat earth, after it's done it's full rotation, the whole earth should have been covered. A penlight, or 12 watt bulb would no way be able to accomplish that on a 2 mile field, or a gymnasium. The point is, that whatever light source you use, that is capable of covering the entire earth during it's rotation, would still be able to be seen from the farthest edges. This alone makes your flat earth model impossible, with the reality we see with our eyes. Also, your light source would have to get smaller and smaller as it gets farther away, which we know doesn't happen in reality either.
