That map they used looks pretty flat to me...

Terminal altitude of spaceship 1 was 382,000 feet. Thats 72 miles, 613.3 yards
Our current velocity is less than the speed of light. The limit of our velocity is the speed of light.
I disagree - the Earth's speed is not a meaninful value because no external reference point exists. Speed is a measure of how much distance from an object another object accquires in a given amount of time - when speaking in terms of the whole universe, where is the second object?
To say, "The Earth's speed is X" is not to be right or wrong, but to make a nonsensical statement. Due to our scale and surroundings, we tend to forget that speed relies on a point of reference from or towards which a speeding object can move (since for almost all human activity, points on the Earth's surface are this reference). In cases where there is nothing else to be moving away from or towards, I suggest that speed loses all meaning.
What does not lose all meaning is acceleration. We observe the effects of the Earth's acceleration and can thus calculate it, but the Earth can not be said to have a meaningful speed. Trying to deal with "Earth's speed" begs the question, "speed in relation to what?"
Will you FE'ers stop saying gravity isn't real? Your theory demands gravity to exist! And the force powering UA should be named the Conventional Relative Acceleration Constant Kinetic Force, or CRACK Force.
Where in the bible does Jesus say earth is flat.
http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/febible.htm is a list of bible based flat earth references.
It does not exist outside this forum. In today’s day and age, no one outside of here regards us as anything but a joke. Your post content so far is proof of this.Read the FAQ, it proves the earth is flat
Gravity does exist, and there are experiments to prove it.
why not, its what its like is it notIf that is what it was like, how would we still have water in the oceans?
you have to think outside the box, gravity and all that jazz
Are there detailed images of galaxies (in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum) made by terrestial telescopes?
And people who don't understand politics or the nature of the world
If TOm Bishop, my brother, was actually smart, he would know that to detect the background radiation oyu need extremely sensitive equipment. This equiopment is so sensitive, that when used on earth, it is obscured by the natural radiation of the earth and its atmosphere. The device needs to be sent into orbit.
Actually, that's not quite true. The CBR was first detected from the ground by Penzias and Willson in the 1960's. To measure the exact structure of the CBR, you need satelites like COBE, but it can be (and has been) detected from the ground.
