50 years ago, people said the same thing about flying.  Yet, many people today still can't afford a plane ticket.

Plane tickets are still relatively cheap. The fact that some people can't afford them doesn't make them expensive.

The same will go for space travel. Sure, not everyone will be able to afford them, but anyone above lower-middle class should be able to.

Like I said before, it is still enough people to prove FE Hypothesis wrong.

Even if the plane does not travel into space, it will be high enough to see the shape of the earth.

Looking forward to the day when I can laugh in your face.
eh, I am over it, believe in what you want.

I fly a lot and have never seen the curvature of the earth.

Really? So, you have never looked out the window before? Because it is clearly there.

Seeing as I am the one doing the flying, it's really hard to not look out the window.

Oh? So you are a pilot then? Well then you should try to fly around the earth north to south and prove all of us RE'ers wrong. There is probably big money in that.

Why do I get the constant feeling of 1984-flashbacks when I read the folly of FE'ers?
quot;Earth is flat because there is a conspiracy, and there is a conspiracy because the Earth is flat" - Makes sense, duh.

What are you stupid? If you had paid more attention to this thread then you would know that the plane will travel in a up side down U shape (hence 0 G), therefore allowing the person to see the earth shape. Btw theres an example of a stupid post of yours I was talking about in another thread.
eh, I am over it, believe in what you want.

Oh, I see, you are confused.  When you said 'plane' you were talking about SpaceShipOne.  In the posts prior to yours, we were talking about flying on a normal plane.  That's what I was talking about.  

You really should try and keep up with the conversation.

I am sure it was proved on this forum that the at the standard flight that planes fly, if the world is round, the curvature is insignificant anyway - so either way, from a plane, there is no noticeable curvature.  Do we really need to work out all those calculations again?  Go to google earth - I know that is popular program amongst REers and see what height you need to be above the google Earth to see that the Earth is round.  Now imagine an Earth a few millions times larger and think about how far away you need to be to see that the Earth is round (assuming for the sake of the argument that it is round, which it isn't).  I'm sure from this simple and easy experiment you will be able to see that you actually can't tell if the Earth is round or flat from a plane.  And even if you could see a curvature, there is nothing to say that the Earth is perfectly flat - it could well have a slight curve to its shape - like a contact lens instead of a lens cap.

There is the SpaceShip One aircraft which exits the atmosphere and there is are planes that are designed to simulate 0 gravity. Either one will produce the same effect.

I don't understand your point?  The same effect would occur under either model of gravity.

Oh lol.  Your opinion of yourself is so amusing.  It's clear that I've destroyed you in a number of arguments and although you deny this, I think the independent observers would definitely side with me (like when you said that the theory that the Earth is round is based on the theory of gravity).


Lol - clear to whom? The people who messaged me privately to tell me that you have been destroyed and that you are a horrible debator? Hmm... interesting view, but then again, it makes sense since most of your beliefs conflict with reality. The example that you picked to prove that you "destroyed" me was an issue of form, not essence. It was irrelevant to the point being discussed. Grow up.

You are of course entitled to your own opinions, especially your opinions of yourself, and I feel that a strong sense of self confidence is really crucial in being successful in today's society (which is ultimately different to being successful in life).  But ultimately the fact is that you never respond to my posts with anything other than disagreement, which is exactly the same as what you're accusing me of doing to you.


Well it just so happens that usually you respond to my initial arguments by disagreeing, not the other way around. Then (obviously) I disagree with you since what I initially posted was correct to begin with. The "personal" problem still lies with you. I pity you for holding grudges.

hi, i just have a cuple of qusetions, first, why do you all think that te earth is flat not round, second do you all not trust modern technoligy? that we have seinteist that can prove that the earth is round. And last all the fotos from the moon... on them you can clerly see that the earth is round? why cant ju all just accept the fakt that the earth is round?

I accept your belife put not your stupidity
