it is still almost impossible for man in the 21st century to explore the vast depth of the ocean. I would think that the near absolute darkness of the unlit area would even be more treacherous, but hopefully it will be explored very soon. At least we could figure out where an "edge" may be if it exists at all.
Wouldn't it be much easier just to fly south and keep going? That way you avoid the treacherous conditions on the ground.
No, it would simply be more dangerous, considering of course you managed to successfully navigate on a constant southern route. It would be a most difficult task at considering the harshness of the climate and terrain. Not to mention possibly hundreds of miles to navigate. Air transport may seem the expedient venture however it may not be so (see Nazi Foo Fighter test flights).
I don't believe these Nazi test flights ever took place, as I don't believe in conspiracy theories unless I have reliable evidence.
Why would the climate and terrain pose any problems to sufficiently high altitude aircraft? Also, I think it would fairly easy to remain on a southern course, there are many navigational systems that could accomplish this; INS, gyroscopes, compass, etc.
Betsy Ross sewing the first american flag was a conspiracy but I bet you believed when your teavhers told you. You simply wont do any first hand investigating, its so much easier and simpler to label something as conspiracy bilge.
Another conspiracy! I'd love to hear more about this one.
It was actually while serving time in prison which I learned about this. I had submitted an inter-library loan from Princeton University fromthe prisons library computer terminal about bee keeping. This was due to my plans to initiate a multiple hive operation following my release from captivity however problems arising shortly after my release inhibited these operations. I was also studying the bees and their structual organization as I hoped to learn better how they form and operate a hive, as the details are most intricate and complex. I was then going to attempt to implement their habits and tendencies into todays society in further attempt to foster better societal conditions and build better communties to dwell in. As I went to the prison library to pick up the bee keeping book, I took note to a world almanac. At that time I had never viewed one and naturally, my inquisitive nature provoked me to check the book out. It was in the almanac, in the politics and history section that I first learned that there is no historical evidence supporting Betsy Ross as the one who sewed the first american flag. I, in turn, began the investigation as to why I had been taught this in grade school. The results of this investigation were most disappointing. Betsy Ross was, ''read out'' of her local quaker community after she married her first husband (which allowed her the last name Ross). Being ''read out'' is the equivalent to being excommunicated by the Roman catholic church. Your quaker community and family no longer deal with you. This was a result of her marriage as inter-denominational marriages went against the quakers religious doctrine. She then started an upholstery business of her own (which was a risky business venture as she knew there would be no business from the local quaker community) which at the time was more than just home interior furnishment. In those days upholstery included other crafts, including flag making which she produced for the local pennsylvania government for several years. Her first husband was killed and she married a few more after that. It wasnt until long after Elizabeth's (Betsy Ross) death, that her grandson William Canby presented the story of Betsy sewing the first american flag. These are the facts, the theories surrounding why these events took place branch off from several different motives and involve two major theories.
