Earth's round shape perfectly shown
« on: July 10, 2011, 06:05:14 AM »


Amazing video to see, but if you want the direct facts go to 7:40.

Earth's round shape shown at his best. Undeniable.

Of course now, some blind stubborn FES will desperately say that this is no evidence...

"ooh oooh all i see is a disk hurr durr thus da earth is flat"

I just hope some of them open their eyes.

Enjoy.

Being the diligent lurker that I'm sure you are, I'm sure you know that videos like this are posted all the time. You're going to have to provide something more substantial. What makes you think you're seeing a globe and not the illuminated portion of a disk?

More substantial than video perfectly showing ocean pacific and you can't see the atlantic one since it is on the other side of the globe...?

Ok let me throw at you a random reason out of thousands explaining why earth is round:

If i get a plane and fly from New York to China... If i go east i'll reach China; if i go west i'll reach China; in both cases if i go <--- or i go ---> i'll reach China. Why? Hint: Because we live on a geosphere-

Expected answer: because when the plain reach the limit of the fantasy disk it gets automatically quantum teleported on the other side of the platform.

... C'mon. This is getting ridicolous.

You can circumnavigate the flat earth, lurk moar please.

Wardogg is right. I suggest reading the FAQ.

Just as i expected, random excuse as an answer. Pfft.

A plane that goes from New York to China going always in the same direction ( west ) will travel the Pacific Ocean and get to Asia Continent. Fact.

I've never though one day I could be arguing on so elementary and logical facts like this... I'm astonished by how much stubborn you guys are.

A plane that goes from New York to China going always in the same direction ( west ) will travel the Pacific Ocean and get to Asia Continent on a flat Earth as well as a round Earth. Fact.

I wasn't trying to avoid the question by directing you to the FAQ, seeing as that's where the answer to your question can be found.

Shinj, the Earth is a disk. Thus, it can be circumnavigated.


Think of it like that.

Ummm... No.  Traveling due east and due west, in both FET and RET, is merely following lines of latitude (which are actually concentric circles about the poles).

I know and that's the problem... if you follow the circumference of the latitude line on a disk, you will need to CURVE. If you follow the latitude line of a sphere, you can go all the way linear, no variations of direction.

Dude are you having fun of me or what? I don't want to think you are talking seriously. Well if you are talking seriously that would explain a lot of your belief. But I'd rather think you are kidding me.

Damn it. Ok i'll explain it just for you. Both lines are curved, yes. But in the case of the disk the plane will curve, while in the case of the sphere the plane won't curve to travel those lines. Got it now? Decent answer only please.

If the plane didn't curve, it would fly off into space.

Omg you are seriously kidding me or what? Of course it curves in a VERTICAL way since the earth's gravity etc etc.  I'm talking about curving right and left ways. I see you can't explain this so you come up with no sense answers... Perfect i take it as a victory =)

Make up your mind guys and deal with the fact that the Earth is round.

No, the plane is curving horizontally as well.

How come? If you follow the line i draw on the globe you can travel from point A to point B going all the time straight forward, i'm quite sure of this.

You walk in a circle in both Flat Earth Theory and Round Earth Theory.

Being ten feet from the magnetic north pole wouldn't have the effect you are trying to illustrate. You want the cartographic north pole.

How about the cartographic south pole?  Wouldn't that have the same effect as Harutsedo is explaining with the now editited cartographic north pole?

You can circumnavigate the flat earth, lurk moar please.

Only in an East West direction - north south circumnavigation is quite more difficult on a FE than on an RE.
