Pre NASA

Flat Earthers claim that NASA is the root of the round earth conspiracy.
The earth was proven to be flat long before NASA ever existed.  Hundreds of years before.
What's the deal with that?

Do a search for "Bavarian Globe Maker's Guild" also known as "The Illuminati".  Trust me, RET isn't the only conspiracy that they have going.  Fnord.

This whole forum makes me want to punch a baby. Why is there even a debate? This is the 21st century.

Anyway... Is there any proof of these conspiracies?

Is there proof for any of the world wide, behind the scenes conspiracies floating around?  It wouldn't be a very good conspiracy if there was proof, would it?

Do all round earthers punch babies in this 21st century?

Ever hear of Copernicus? Uh, he was 450 years before NASA, and he proved the Earth was round....

And he had good backing. Here, go to the beach and look out at the horizon. Does itlook totally flat or rounded?

Why wasn't Copernicus shot by NASA assasins?

I think he died in a boating accident before they got to him.

Question: Are all the FE guys just really awesome trolls?

The FE guys are just really awesome.

he didn't' theorized, he proved it. its basic 21 century educations that the earth is round and not flat.

Was grammar abandoned in said education?

you should see the state of the public schools. there fallen apart.

grammar be part of the conspiracy

Fair enough.  By the way, your avatar is awesome.

Actually, Copernicus' theories regard the sun being at the center of our solar system.  I think you're thinking of Eratosthenes or Ptolemy.

Besides, how do you know Copernicus even existed?  Because you read it in a book?  I read a book last night where Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock fired their phasers on stun.  That book isn't used as a school text book, you say?  Hey, when I was in school, they taught me all about the planet Pluto, as well.  We know how that turned out!

Besides, how do you know that you exist?  Did someone tell you?

Rhetorical nonsense.

I don't think anyone here has said that people only believe the earth is round because of NASA. They just happen to claim they've been to outer-space and documented the earth's shape. It's annoying that people come here trying to prove us wrong and NASA is always used when they get cornered. It's just a myth. It's pathetic how people will buy into it without question.

Rhetorical nonsense.

You're new here, aren't you?

Is there proof for any of the world wide, behind the scenes conspiracies floating around?  It wouldn't be a very good conspiracy if there was proof, would it?

So basically, the less evidence there is of a conspiracy, the more efficient the conspirators, and therefore the more truth in the existence of said conspiracy? Gotcha.

NASA contradicts physical reality. What proof could possibly be more sufficient?

You can't really say things without giving reasons. Especially things that a retarded first grader will tell you is stupid and not true. Let's assume for a minute that you're worldview isn't completely assbackwards.

Why would the government go through such trouble trying to cover up the geometry of the world (which any curious person can see for himself is spherical, but let's ignore this glaring inconsistency) to make 18 billion dollars a year, especially, when according to you, it's so obvious that the world is flat?

It's my position that NASA truly and honestly believes that the earth is a globe, which is why they chose to depict it as such in their Apollo images. But since neither space travel or earth orbit is possible, and since the highest NASA can go is to the edge of the atmosphere where they are looking down at the distant curved edges of the sun's circular area of light, they are in no position to tell us what form the earth takes.

The "conspiracy" revolves around faking space travel for political and military purposes. After the Manhattan Project in the 1940's the US needed some kind of unstoppable vehicle to facilitate the transport of its weapons of mass destruction. Thus NASA was created in the 50's for the sole and only purpose of convincing the world that the US could drop an ICBM on foreign cities at the drop of a hat.

You're fooling yourself if you believe that NASA was created for some kind of humanitarian or scientific purpose.

What does FE think of NACA and the aeronautical research they did before becoming NASA?

NASA's motto: "The difficult we do immediately.  The impossible takes a little longer."

Besides, reality is highly over rated.

Umm OK.

So if NASA doesn't do the conspiring (see above) who does?!

A post of infinite value oh lord of retarded buttfucks.

You've changed your mind then.  It least we're moving in the right direction.

NASA is conspiring. They're just not conspiring over the shape of the earth. They're conspiring to create the illusion of America's dominance over space.

I haven't changed my mind. It's what I've been saying for the past two years.

Let me get this right:  You are saying that NASA think the earth is round when in fact it is flat.  NASA has no idea why it cannot get into space despite countless attempts, using the most advanced rockets and ground control equipment.

Therefore there is no "Flat Earth Conspiracy", just a "Space Flight Conspiracy".

Do you know even more than the FES?
