User ID: 80193276 United States 05/22/2021 11:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The real and easiest proof is in the time it takes a Vendee Globe sail boat to circumnavigate Antarctica. Quoting: Justme C'est Moi If the flat Earther map was true, the journey would take around 6 months I think. But they do it in around 20 days. Typing the times by memory, but the point is, the sailboats have a well understood speed and making the much longer journey of a flat Earth map, in the times they post would be impossible. But it doesn't matter how much proof you show them. They just shove their fingers in their ears and go La La La. :) 1) the fastest time the vendee was completed was 74 days and change 2) they don't travel near Antarctica, they travel closer to the equator, so 24000 miles seems right, they also go north after crossing south america so you come here with assumptions and reference a race you don't even understand, then you tell others they won't listen to reason interesting Your stupidity is showing. They drive south from France, All the way to their closest approach to Antarctica possible within the rules and the iceberg hazards. Then they travel right around Antarctica. Here is the tracking map. Then they sail North back to France. I have been a sailor for 30 fucking years. And I used to work for BOC. [link to www.vendeeglobe.org (secure)] You might have to adjust the view magnification to see the entire route. I trust you know how to use a mouse. You can see the date and time of each boat as it circumnavigates Antarctica. Proving your flat earth bullshit is pure bullshit. they dont travel "right around Antarctica" they are also restricted to above the 46 the line of latitude that's not even close to antarctica looking at this route on a flat earth it makes sense the 24000 estimated distance and record time of 74 days I said they sail as close to Antarctica as the rules allow. I guess you can't read as well as can't think. You also have the times wrong. There is a slider at the bottom of the tracking chart that advances the time of the race and the boats move position. I took note of the lead boat, the Apivia. It completed its Southern leg on Nov 27, 2020 at 23:12 UTC and had completed 7159 nm. This began its circumnavigation of Antartica. It ended its circumnavigation of Antartica 40 days later on Jan 6, 2021 at 17:35 UTC and it logged 21.677 nm at that point in the race. So in 40 days it traveled 14,500 nm to circumnavigate Antarctica. And averaged 15 knots for that leg. ANd of course, his route is not a perfect straight line for lots of reasons. So the straight line distance for that route would be considerably less than the 14,500 nm. Now, if your dumb assed theory of a flat Earth were true, that circumnavigation would have been the same as the circumference of the Earth, or 21,600 nm. And his journey would have the same sorts of deviations to optimize speed made good vs wind speed. So that would put his average boat speed at an average 22 knots, which as you can see, none of the boats were capable of sustaining as an average speed. Therefore it is proven, the Earth is a spherical object. QED = Quite Easily Done, as my old calc. professor used to say. ALso, their line of travel looks to be between 50 and 60 deg S Latitude, not 40. Last Edited by JustmeTX on 05/23/2021 01:11 AM Justme |

The race in question was run 6 months ago. The exclusion zone follows the jagged line shown on the tracking chart for the race in question. It doesn't get any plainer than that. The line jags around between 50 and 60 deg S Latitude. Period. The boat travelled at 15 knots on average and circumnavigated that course as shown and the boat logged his distance sailed as 14,500 nautical miles. Period the end. There were like 30 boats all doing the same thing with a flesh and blood captain on them. Every nuance of the journey was logged by the wonders of modern navigation and communications. The flat Earth distance for that trip would have been well over 21,000 NM. Hence the Earth isn't flat.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79104722 [link to www.sailingscuttlebutt.com (secure)] This is agreed between the Australian authorities and the Race Direction in particular following the rescue of injured Yann Eliès in 2008. These four points are located at latitude 46° 00 South and run from 105° to 120° East longitude. Dude, it is shown on the fucking map for the Vendee Globe race. IF you stayed at 46 degrees, you would not be able to round South America for chrissakes. Unless you can sail on land. Is that part of your theory as well? well don't get mad at me, email the people who wrote that article the checkpoints run along the 46th line of latitude i told you they go north after crossing the southern tip of south america You referenced an article dated 2008. The race in question was run 6 months ago. The exclusion zone follows the jagged line shown on the tracking chart for the race in question. It doesn't get any plainer than that. The line jags around between 50 and 60 deg S Latitude. Period. The boat travelled at 15 knots on average and circumnavigated that course as shown and the boat logged his distance sailed as 14,500 nautical miles. Period the end. There were like 30 boats all doing the same thing with a flesh and blood captain on them. Every nuance of the journey was logged by the wonders of modern navigation and communications. The flat Earth distance for that trip would have been well over 21,000 NM. Hence the Earth isn't flat. If you want me not to get mad at you, admit you lost the argument and that I proved the Earth is a Sphere-ish object and I will buy you a beer sometime. :) this is an assumption I don't really care if you get mad at me and you haven't proven anything. other than boats can travel around the bottom of continents |

We have no seamless entry into "space" from the lower atmosphere. Why is that ? Because it's faked. CGI. Frankly, these videos aren't even faked well. Poor fakes. JamesBob |
