    Here is a video of what people think is the earth's curvature, in Felix Baumgartner's jump.



    Here is how a "Go Pro Camera" (fish eye lens) works.

    I admit that it never sat well with me there were identical cloud formations on the Early globe photos from NASA - I concede this much.

    That doesn't mean the Earth is flat.

    No, the images are CGI, they require a computer and the graphics thereof. Some day you might grow out of your indoctrinated world view of reality. But then again, they seem to have done extra on you. Your anger and hatred is most certainly disturbing.

    Will you take the blue pill and go back to your fantasy, or will you take the red pill, and see how deep the rabbit hole goes?

    O.M.G. is a educated answer. Very well done, you are improving.

    Are you a physics major? Do you have the ability to teach physics?

    Good lord. The distance calculation from the top of Mt. Everett is the distance to the horizon.

    The distance in your link is between two mountain peaks.

    Let me know if you cannot comprehend why this difference makes your statement one of complete ignorance.

    No, O....M....G means "Oh.....My......God".

    It is an expression of astonishment that I had just read something so ****ing stupid.

    In the video, the ship sinking below the horizon isn't being blocked by another ship. It's being blocked by the horizon.

    Fail.

    The curve in your video. I showed it to you in one of your many other threads.

    The bottom of the last domino only disappears if it is blocked by the first domino. It is not blocked by a flat surface.

    Except remember ... in the FE belief system, rules of geometry and physics do not apply. In the FE belief system, two parallel lines will intersect.

    No, but with all the fake images, it most certainly doesn't mean it's a sphere either. And obviously they are hiding something.

    That is not a photograph, and Nasa never claimed it was. Why are you intentionally bearing false witness again?

    The 1972 photo taken from by the Apollo astronauts is a photograph. You know, the one you asked why you couldn't see the other continents.

    Where's your proof that that one is a "fake"?

    So if you placed one domino on a flat surface the domino would be like a ship. And it wouldn't matter how large of a flat surface you had the farther you got away from it. It would never appear to dissappear from the bottom up.

    All the other evidence that it's spherical means it's spherical. People knew it was long before space travel.

    Most of the images of the round Earth presented by Nasa are actually composite images stitched together from multiple images and enhanced to give more detail and clarity. NASA admits this and fully discloses it and explains how it is done on its website.

    So by taking one composite image and showing that it is composite, which JR777 falsely acts like is uncovering some fraud, is showing what NASA itself fully acknowledges on its website.

    If fact, the only full earth film photograph is the 1972 "blue marble" taken by Apollo astronauts. It's the one where JR wondered why you couldn't see the other continents (lol). Here's a story about it here: https://www.theatlantic.com/technol...ur-first-complete-photograph-of-earth/237167/

    More recently, in 2015, NASA reviled another full image shot of the Earth. But like virtually all photos today, it was taken by a digital camera, which JR of course claims is "fake."

    Of course, there are thousands of photos and videos not of the entire Earth clearly showing its curvature.

    To a basic degree yes.

    This is not an "early globe photo". This is from a more recent image NASA created by stitching together different satellite images. NASA clearly states this on his website. Don't think that JR has uncovered some scheme to defraud.

    The only early globe photo of the Earth is the 1972 picture taken by Apollo astronauts.

    Let's wait for JR777 to show us the identical cloud formations in that one.

    With "conspiracy theories" it isn't about the evidence but the level of certainty for which you make a claim.

    (I placed conspiracy theories in quotes because i don't think the protective mechanism for one's delusion constitutes a conspiracy or a theory)

    No, they only appear to intersect. This is due to "perspective".

    Does a basic degree include the complex theory of a ball earth? Because physics and everything we see does not change on a flat earth. Only the theoretical model does. Gases, liquids, etc, they all behave in a manner in which we see, test, and experiment with, regardless of the shape of the earth.

    Incorrect. It disappears on a curved surface only.

    So if the lines of view do not intersect, then it would be impossible for the line to the horizon to block any portion of a building or ship.

    Common sense just proved once again how silly believing in a FE is. If you have any.

    So if the earth is flat, I can go to the end of it, right? What's at the end of earth? Is there a forcefield that won't let me fall off?
