I just posted a thread about this this morning that was deleted. I wonder why? Maybe it’s because the moderators here are helping to cover up one of the greatest deceptions in modern history: ball earth. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77922972 Anyway, the Alps are over 275 miles from the Pyrenees. Based on the curvature calculation for Earth, the Alps should be completely obscured by the curvature, yet they are visible. Here is a curvature calculator: [link to dizzib.github.io (secure)] I live in a rural part of Oregon, in the foothills of the coast range. On a clear day, from a hill behind my house, I can see Mt. Hood (11250 ft), Mt. St. Helens (8366 ft) and Ranier (14411 ft). In a straight line, Mt St Helens is about 110 miles northeast of my location, while Ranier is about 65 miles north of Mt. St. Helens. From my vantage point, Mt St Helens is significantly higher than Ranier. Why do you thing that would be? Maybe you would tell me your thoughts on the matter... Very simple question. Very obvious answer. You don't even need to do any math. |

I hope this thread gets nuked like usual. Seeing as how you resort to ad hominems, you a probably a shill. First off, the Southern Hemisphere is merely a figment of your imagination. There is no hemiSPHERE on earth. Second, not everyone in the southern latitudes who are looking south see the same night sky. It depends on which side of earth you are... What you have here is bona fide proof that the earth is flat, and you just ignore it and run for cover under the pretense of hoping that this thread gets nukes...while your Hope might come true...and this thread might be buried...but the truth will never be buried...and it is finally coming to light. |

A mirror Sun flash can be seen 30 miles, much farther with a telescope. The record distance was established by the U.S. Signal Corps, 183 miles, seen a great distance below the supposed Earth curve. Part of the US congressional record. The record for using a signal fire for surveying is 43 miles while setting the northern Florida border, fire was on a small mound, seen 1232 feet below the supposed Earth curvature. Old surveying records have many examples of long distance work. Earth is flat and non-rotating, period. |

On the Earth terrestrial globes you see, land is distorted smaller and smaller going north or south from the equator, no accurate depiction. In that the noted landmass sizes do not fit on the terrestrial physical globes without distorting them is proof enough that the spinning water ball Earth in a 'space vacuum theory is not valid. |

Why is the sun moving around all day if the earth is flat Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79277135 Why is it dark on one side off the planet if the earth is flat The sun is an orb that rotates above the earth, lighting one half of earth at a time, like a flashlight above a pizza. As to “why” the sun revolves, well that is a metaphysical question beyond my ken. |

You're not seeing the bottom third of the mountains, as the earth's curve cuts them off from view. There you're cured. You're not seeing the bottom third of the mountains, as the earth's curve cuts them off from view. There you're cured. No, it’s not the earth’s curve. It’s cloud cover. And the mountains, according to the curvature calculator, should be 100% obscured. |

Looks like the shills aren’t even touching this with an eight-foot Pole. Maybe if I had included “flat earth” in the title, they would be flocking to it. Or maybe they just don’t have any counter arguments and don’t want to make fools of themselves. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77922972 The Flat Earthers are the shills. |
