  1. An increasingly oblique angle the further rimwards you went.

  2.  @KangenAlec  You still haven’t explained how observable reality contradicting FE somehow supports FE. What’s the delay?

  3. Most FE’ers seem to be very religious, frequently waving a Bible as part of their evidence. Possibly it’s a mindset that looks for simple but incorrect explanations that they can comprehend.

  4. Brittany Wade We’ve done the research; it’s nonsense.

  5.  @KangenAlec  Evidence?

  6. The Earth was determined to be a sphere 2000 years before Galileo; he was instrumental in the shift from geocentric to heliocentric model.

  7.  @Globeishoaxx  Evidence?

  8.  @Matuse  Thanks, I’m confusing it with the observations from the flypast.

  9.  @raventaylor1757  We correct our errors. Putting something in the wrong category would be an error; redefinjng categories is not.

  10.  @raventaylor1757  What do you think we do in labs? Scientific theories are well-substantiated by extensive observation & experiment, not hunches or guesses; that is the vernacular meaning of theory. Categories are not theories in either the scientific or vernacular sense of the word.

  11. Waste of money. The idiots would spend a month trying to find the wires holding them up or, worse, try to prise open air locks because they think they’re in a studio.

  12.  @KangenAlec  You still haven’t produced any evidence to support any of that.

  13.  @KangenAlec  Why doesn’t the sun illuminate the whole Earth since it is visible to the whole Earth?

  14.  @Globeisahoax  "cool story bro. Need proof" There's this concept called measurement but it does seem totally beyond FE'ers...

  15.  @stargost2338  It's more from the centrifugal force of the planet's rotation than the sun's gravity. Folks like this guy aren't interested in knowledge, just in being different.

  16.  @Globeisahoax  For the zillionth time, the sun is measurably distant and south =/= down on a globe. That you are just too thick to comprehend the effect of an axial tilt doesn’t disprove it.

  17. Tyson continued by stating how small the distortion was, ie, too little to be apparent to the eye.

  18.  @Globehoax  Still waiting on your evidence….

  19.  @KangenAlec  Because they are gullible fools who want to feel special.

  20. Magellan was the first to do it. Numerous flights have been done in recent decades, both equatorial and circumpolar. You can catch a series of flights so you can effectively do the same.

  21.  @Globeishoaxx  The Gleason projection is a globe map. Try reading the subtitle or is that too difficult for you?

  22. Jubilee's editing.

  23. You think se should trust someone because they are “independent” rather than query the claims they make and ask for their reasoning and evidence for their conclusions?
    2
  24.  @Globehoax  How can a completely undetectable object block anything?
    2
  25. I think he was trying to say that Ali bought his PhD rather than worked for it; it seems to be a widespread belief among FE’ers.

  26. That’s editing to temove the one way flow of evidence. Motion of the sun, horizons, angle to Polaris matching latitude, constellations changing with latitude, two celestial poles and lunar eclipses.

  27.  @Globeishoaxx  Yet again doofus, a sphere has no top or bottom.

  28. Been done and the FE’ers refused to accept the results.

  29.  @paulgilton9590  He’s a dedicated fool.

  30.  @KangenAlec  Telescopes.

  31.  @KangenAlec  Still no evidence or answers then?
    2
  32. You need to supply the compelling evidence for ESP.

  33.  @whitegotham  What stops you from recording data?
    2
  34.  @KangenAlec  Straight line as in no deviation left or right.
    2
  35.  @KangenAlec  Once again, blockhead: motion of the sun, horizons, angles to Polaris, two celestial poles, all personally verifiable.

  36. Have you ever thought to check what people are telling you? Blue Marble 2 (aka Blue Marble 2012) is a composite; Blue Marble was shot in a single frame on film in 1972 decades before Photoshop existed. Currently Himawari-8, EPIC and Elektro-L are collectively taking several single-frame shots per hour, all immediately viewable. How many shots need to be taken to qualify a shot having been taken? When most of the video has been edited out you can't claim somebody didn't say something; that lies with the producers who edited the film, not anybody speaking in the video. Because how far you can see is dependent on curvature, elevation & atmospheric refraction not curvature alone. If you want to calculate how much of something you should see then you need to use the correct maths, which is not 8"/mile^2. See Walter Bislins' curvature calculator if you want an idea of the maths involved. FE claim are readily disproved.

  37. Level has multiple meanings; look up the different definitions inna comprehensive dictionary. In this context it means at gravitational equipotential.

  38.  @KangenAlec  Still waiting on you to provide any evidence of a dome.

  39. Many of them are like that: insist they have the conclusive evidence, want people to know it but never say what it is.
    2
  40.  @KangenAlec  You aren’t educated in FE otherwise you’d be able to answer basic questions.
    2
  41. They proved the Earth was flat or they assumed it was flat? There’s a big difference. If the former then why can’t FE’ers actually produce this proof instead of claiming it exists? Nobody has yet produced a plausible explanation for a globe conspiracy. What are you saying it is? Who benefits and how? Motion of the sun, horizons, angle to Polaris, two celestial poles; all readily testable.

  42.  @prababkrsnan162  That's the gibberish used by people who have no clue about science but want to feel that they are well informed.
    2
  43. It's 3D object; you aren't going to see front AND back from the same angle. Look up Himawari-8, Elektro-L & EPIC.

  44.  @phoenixfront  There’s scepticism and there’s cynicism. Starting from the assumption that everything is a lie until demonstrated otherwise is not scepticism.
    2
  45.  @KangenAlec  Yet again, blockhead: axial tilt is 23.4 degrees.
    2
  46.  @KangenAlec  Why does the sun move as expected from a globe but not from a FE?
    2
  47.  @KangenAlec  Once again.... motion of the sun, horizons, two celestials poles, angle to Polaris.....
    2
  48. FE’ers are keen on cherry picking & selective interpretation.
    2
  49. The shape of the Earth is a fact not a theory; it’s measured to the cubic metre. FE can be readily disproved; any doubt about the exact shape of Earth will not magically undisprove it.

  50.  @KangenAlec  The Gleason map is an azimuthal projection of the globe; it specifically states that. How clearly does it need to be spelt out?
