Wow, does the propaganda in the astronomy and basic sciences world really get this bad? Poor flat earthers!

Flat Earth is a psyop to distract people from the real reason NASA lies: there is a secret black budget space program and we are in contact with ET.
If Flat Earthers claim that Flat Earth is true then the Flat Earth model should give better explanations than the supposed faulty model of the globe earth. Flat Earth should give better explanations about the movement of the sun, the moon, timezones, coriolis effect, etc.
But guess what, Flat Earth does not give better explanations. It hasn't even got a proper model for the movement of the sun. Flat Earth gives worse explanations regarding certain observed phenomena, not better explanations.
Why make it so big. Any mariner and navigator will tell you, sailing from Auckland NZ to Buenaventura Colombia on a flat earth is a different journey than on a globe or even on a concave earth, and I should add, at least twice as long.
FE people are not influenced by that, of course. But I sure would love to see them try. Can we have some FE sailor volunteers?
There's a book called "16 emergency landings proving flat earth"
I'd be willing to bet that you can't explain away why these emergency landings happened where they did on globe earth. The book is free online BTW.
Do you think living in Michigan and having the great lakes help to formulate this belief. Whenever i go over the zilwaukee bridge i question the globe/flat earth or when i can see Canada across white fish bay i question it. Driving over the macinac bridge of or standing the shores of the straights of macinac i question it.
Let' s start with more practical things instead of blabbering about issues none of us has any potential relationship with.
Sailing & navigation is not that hard. And it belongs to the realm of human endeavor since ages. You can do it with an astrolabium, kompass and sextant & tables. Hop-on sites all over. So, FE-sailors! Get into gear and get sailing.
And of course, there are tens of thousands of ocean-sailors to ask about their experience, airplane navigators, ship navigators.
Theybwont even consider it. But once you see it yku can't un see it.
You clearly haven't seen it. You know what I've seen? A globe.
Take a trip to the edge of the world. It would be pretty cool if it were real, not to mention the fact that it's actually possible to travel to the edge in your fantasy land
How so? Look at any flat earth map and Columbia to NZ is a very straightforward trip. I've travelled quite a bit by all means and it all pans out on a flat map. Pilots, and their equipment, do not calculate for curvature, and some common flight patterns are absolutely wonky on a globe model compared to a flat one. I will respond with examples or PM you if you're interested.
Posing the question is answering it. Your faculties to travel the earth are not in question. What is in question is what is mentioned in the challenge under the link.
A Buenaventura -> Auckland or AUKLAND to Buenaventura sailing voyage on a flat earth is different from one on a globe or even a concave earth. And since it is the most easy test you can do, all it requires is the courage to put your money where your mouth and faith is.
And you could indeed use an astrolabe to actually navigate. Just imagine. A device with a history of 2000 years used on a different longitude with such a journey over thousands of miles. And with an AIS we can track your vessel. With GPS you can counter track it. Afterwards we can compare your log, your gps log, and ais log and see what is the truth of the matter.
My prediction: You will prepare for a longer journey and end up somewhere else than where you expect to be.
So, I am looking for intrepid individuals of the FE-persuasion who would risk their asses on a perilous journey to prove their conviction and a point, and safe my soul.
I would take you up on your offer if I had the financial means. Sailing from Columbia to NZ on a flat map is basically a straight (well a curved) shot with no land mass in your way, I don't see how you'd end up anywhere you don't expect. If anyone wants to set up the financial side, I would be down to find a crew and give it a go :)
*Edit: The proof of flatness won't save your soul, Jesus will, whether the earth is flat, a donut or slice of red velvet cake :)
Heliocentricnis the psyop. We don't say flat earth. But it's not a globe. And I doesn't move.
Yes precisely! This is why I've not managed to fully call myself a full believer. This is my main sticking point. Until a model emerges that can explain all of this, I shall remain a skeptic.
And here I thought the secret project was a secret Stargate project, it was real, and the episodes were actual mission logs from elite Air Force teams operating on other planets.
