I once got on a plane when I was in the military and we flew close to the edge and could only see black past the edgy of the flat earth
TBIman · 41-45, M
@Guyapart22 I don't believe that there is an "edge."

The curvature of the earth can be observed with the naked eye from a height greater than 8 miles
If the earth was flat, how can one explain circumnavigation?
With a flat earth, why do items disappear beyond the horizon?

If you mean the aspect of once some people get an idea into their head and decide its the right path they will do mental backflips and ignore tons of well presented facts, documentation, tests, and even basic occams razor considerations to hold onto what they really want... yes, amazingly interesting
@stound best answer

I have... the results were pretty dang clear, the flat earth theory is quite theory wrong, proven by planes and ships using pole maps to save time by assuming it's a globe.
Plus, have you ever actually heard of anyone falling off the earth? Or what's stopping the water from falling off? After all it is a liquid.

@Viper Dude listen to yourself. How could navigation be more successful on a moving globe? Listen the plane takes off and travels from point A to point B. On a flat and motionless plane. What's so hard to understand about that?
If the Earth were actually a spinning ball the plane would have to compensate for not only the curve but also the spin. This never happens. Do some research and get back to me.

@TBIman 1st question: so if Antarctica melts , our oceans are gonna run right off the plane of "earth "?
2nd quesrion: what stopped our oceans running of the edge of the earth when all the continents formed Gondwana Land ?

When I look through the window I can see the mountains in the distance ==> proof that the Earth is not flat!
TBIman · 41-45, M
@helenS I do not know how far away the mountains are from where you are viewing them from. Yes the visablity has much to do with what you are able to see, but if whatever you are looking at should be hidden behind the curvature, then you should not be able to see the mountains. Use an Earth Curve Calculator to determine what you should be able to see. I can assure you that you will be able to see a lot more than what you should be able to.

@TBIman It's completely irrelevant whether I can see a mountain or not. Nobody in their right mind would deny that mountains exist. It's a mystery to me why anyone could seriously claim the Earth is flat, even though they must know there are huge mountain ranges like the Alps, or the Rockies.
The village where my Aunt lives is in a basin, surrounded by high mountains. Go and tell her the Earth is flat. With some luck she will not call the ambulance.
I really can't see how anyone can be so self-centered. They live somewhere where there are no mountains, and now they think the Earth is flat everywhere. 🤬

Flat-Earth arguments fall flat in the face of forceful biblical and scientific evidence for Earth’s roundness.

You probably believe that the moon is flat too, or just "a light in the sky."
If you look at a gibbous moon (3/4 full) through a decent set of binoculars, there will be no doubt in your mind that the moon is a ball, as you can spot the curvature of the terminator (the boundary between light and dark) from pole to pole, and the entire moon will appear in 3D perspective.
I HAVE read the web page of the flat earth society. So yes, I have done my share of the bargain. Are you willing to do YOUR research by looking at the moon the way I suggest?

@TBIman I've looked at the moon through a telescope. I have seen mountains, craters, lava plains, cliffs. People DO know what the moon is. And a spherical moon orbiting a flat earth makes no sense. (Unless of course, you are one of those people who believes gravity is a hoax as well.)

In a planar earth model, how does one explain nutation— the wobble in the earth’s axis as it processes?
And how does one explain why the period of the earth’s nutation cycles exactly equals the period of the moon’s orbital precession?
Not saying the earth isn’t flat as you say. Just looking to compare how the planar and spherical earth explain these phenomena.

Ok, you've convinced me. The round earth hoax was initiated by Magellan, to cover up the fact that he was actually using his government's funds to vacation in Hawaii while he claimed to be sailing around the world.

Question : if the sun is a globe and earth is flat , what stops sunlight spreading across a plane?
Also : what makes seasons if the sun is forever traversing the same trajectory , then logically there are no seaonsonal varialrions.
And why isnt australia cold as its so close to antacrctica?
And why isnt greenland hot ?

Oooh , last question
What makes the moon cycle in appearance ?
If it isn't the earth eclipting the moon, what in the heavens does this .
Esp since falt earth theory only has the sun and the the moon in close orbit, there ia nothing to limit the suns rays reflecting off the moon .
Please explain the crescent and gibbous moons .
