Understanding the universe.

Watch from 25.30 to 26.30

 

At exactly 26.06 the girl on the right finally gets 'it'.

 

Pure gold.

 

 

There's another point the guys failed to mention. Airplanes wouldn't be able to rest on their wheels on a ball shaped earth, they'd simply rock, balanced on their undercarriages. Thanks for exposing the lie guys.

I wonder what MAC33's views are on this: Flat Earthers' latest conspiracy involves Australia.

they ARE mentally retarded, there is no other explanation

Because there's one fruit loop in the movement does not mean it's a reflection of the movements views.

English cricket player Flintoff,

The number of people who believe Earth is flat "has rocketed in recent years, with self-styled experts promoting the theory - along with some celebrities", says Metro.

During the last five years, online Google searches in the UK for the phrase "flat Earth" have risen tenfold, according to Google Trends.

Former England cricketer Andrew "Freddie" Flintoff "revealed last year that he was obsessed with a podcast called The Flat Earthers - and coming round to their ideas", adds Metro.

Flintoff said, "If you're in a helicopter and you hover, why does the Earth not come to you if it's round? Why, if we're hurtling through space, why would water stay still? Why is it not wobbling? Also if you fire a laser about 16 miles, if the world was curved, you shouldn't be able to see it but you can."

He's completely hatstand; you are also.

In this case it does.

Anyway, you've still not explained sunset on a flat earth - on a flat earth either everywhere's in daylight or everywhere's in darkness - but we know when it's day in Australia it's night over here.

This should answer Freddie's questions: http://www.physicscentral.com/experiment/askaphysicist/physics-answer.cfm?uid=20110218025229

The laser question is rather vague.

Also if you fire a laser about 16 miles, if the world was curved, you shouldn't be able to see it but you can."

an experiment to do thats for kids, basic enough for you?

one for the flat earthers who bang on about plane journeys

The world is a spinning ball, and people are held on it on all sides , some of them upside down. And we turn like a spit in front of a great fire. We whirl around the sun

Now that's from a man who knew a thing or two about a thing or two.

Numerous admissions from various U.S Govt Departments that it's a fixed flat plain. A big win this one for the FE movement.

Explain sunset on a flat earth - I'd imagine you get some pretty spectacular ones in Perth.

And no - there are no "admissions" by anyone that we have a flat earth - just some parts of papers taken out of context.
