I don't even bother listening to Crustinator any further, he has absolutely no reason or proof of any of the endless nonsense he spouts.
He's a round earth troll actually

Please do not insult Crustinator. He's a very respected authority on the moon- and anti-moon shrimp.

Respected by whom?

The scientists currently working in the moonshrimp field. It is true that public interest is more inclined to go to more practical fields, but the ones that follow his interesting ideas know how valuable they are.

I guess that would narrow the field down to zero.

I wish you would look at his theories with an opener mind, a lot of things can be explained by the anti-moon shrimp.

Perhaps you need to use the crowbar of falsifiable evidence pry my mind open to the plausibility of anti-moon shrimp when it hasn't even been shown that the anti-moon even exists, let alone has an environment compatible with shrimp (or any other form of) life.

There are many hundreds of scientists currently working on moonshrimp theory. Please do not assume that they all have the time to come on here and debate in circles with witless REers when lives could be saved.

Do you have any evidence to support this claim?

They have to do with the flat earth, as they explain some phenomena.

The gravity idea for a flat earth would be impossible, as you would have to constantly be accelerating, which according to quantum physics is impossible, but you probably think thats a conspiracy as well right?
The whole concept of a flat earth is flawed in so many ways, at least RE'rs have some kind of proof, pictures etc. even if you think their photoshopped (yeah Photoshop 1958).  You have no evidence of the world being flat, any pictures to beyond any shadow of a doubt that the earth is flat.... NO, for a round earth (well technically its not a sphere its more elliptical than anything), YES we do....

Disclaimer: (I suppoert RET and Gravity... but will play devils' advocate with this statement)

Actually... you need to go back and brush up on your Einstein a bit more.

Although it is true that you cannot sustain a true accelleration of 9.81 meters per second squared indeffinitely, the fact is, is that you can indeffinitely sustain your perception of an accelleration of 9.81 meters per second squared in your particular velocity frame of reference.

According to Einstein, as you approach the speed of light, your perception of space and time warps such that although from an outside stationary point it would appear that you rate of acceleration is deteriorating to the ultimate and unachievable point that is the speed of light in a vaccuum, your perception of forward accelleration will remain unchanged in your own frame of reference and you will still continue to experience a force as if it were 9.81 meters per second squared accelleration.
