i recently became a flat earth agnostic. i dont know if earth is flat or round
i found many arguments over past few months that i thought were strong points for flat earth. some of those being
1) the stars circle around polaris, even when filmed from the equator. which seems impossible to me given the spinning movements a stationary camera would make at the equator. should be impossible for the starts to make those movements around polaris
2) i see many videos of nasa clearly faking videos (strings to levitate . and those plane zero G dives . and underwater space walks)
3) the picture of the red-bull jump where the horizon is totally flat when hes so far up
4) video of the sun from far away and it gets grows larger as it moves closer to you and gets smaller as it moves away. thats proof the sun is rotating around us because the sun should always be the "same size" in vision from earth. it growing larger and smaller shows its moving to and from
5) plane flight strangeness. such as there was a story a while ago of a flight from australia to LA making a "emergency stop" at alaska when a woman was giving birth... which makes no sense on a round earth map but makes sense on a flat earth map
6) lack of any real pictures of earth form space that should exist on all the satellites. pictures should be so easy to get given those satellites, but cant find one
7) the strange history of antarctica. how once we reached a decent level of technology and militarys reached antarctica and explored it slightly, it was immediately "sealed off" and a agreement was made for no private companies to set up shop in antarctica. and they created that funny ceremonial south pole that people pay to take tours of
so those are some things that turned me into a flat earth agnostic. i now cant believe in a round earth until i personaly fly on a spaceship myself and see it for myself
now moving on... i remember a story a few years ago of a meteor blowing up over russia. it made a large explosion and people filmed it and windows were broken
so i just thought.... what the hell is that meteor ? if outer space doesnt exist then how can that meteor even exist to blow up over russia?
ok you are earth shape agnostic. good. let me counter these points.
1. The Earth's north poles and south poles have stars appearing directly above or near it. if the earth's axial tilt changed, the north and south celestial poles would appear to be near or over other stars.
2. Well strings haven't been seen really and there might be straps in some cases. Also zero G flights are like 30 seconds anyways.
3. The shots all use wide angle cameras. Try and get a view of it, place a crosshair in the center, and have the horizon intersect the center. You either see a flat horizon (only a small cross-section of the globe) or a slightly curved horizon.
4. That's been proven to be glare. Go buy a sun filter.
5. Well would you think they wouldn't stop if a baby was being birthed in flight???!?!?
6. Did you even open up Google? Do you even know what Google is?
7. No one really owns antarctica, but they still claim some land. It's really weird but I'm glad you caught the fact that people can still visit antarctica.
You want to go to space? Save up a lot of money for a ticket on New Shepard. You don't even have to do that. There are so many experiments you can do that prove the earth is round.
