You cant reason with flat earthers. The C_A programming runs too deep. In that they are exactly like the covidiots. These two groups are the dumbest on the planet.
I have tried explaining lunar libration to them but they just gloss it over. With my own eyes I have seen the moons of Jupiter and Saturn as they disappear behind the planets and done the mathematical calculations to predict when they reappear. They ignore this information. I have explained how Pythagoras sundial experiment 3000 years ago proved the earth is a globe and 500 years later was confirmed by Eratosthenes startingly accurate calculation of the earths circumference to no avail.
Not sure who “you guys” are but apparently you people assume gender. Reeee. Just kidding. I understand your point of view because I was you two years ago. I am an experienced engineer with multiple telescopes a lifelong love of space and nasa. I set out to prove this ridiculous sounding concept wrong. First realize the magician doesn’t cut the woman in half and roll her two halves around the stage. You saw it with your eyes. When Penn and Teller explain the illusion don’t shout them down and claim they are retarded. They are not. They also can’t enjoy a magic show like a kid anymore. Can you see a 3D sphere through your single eyepiece on your telescope? Would you play baseball with one eye shut? With proper shading street art makes amazing 3D holes appear on flat concrete
Not even remotely CGI. The key tell to the curvature of the Earth is not even the circular horizon, but the fact that as the land masses get closer to the rim, they are clearly more angled away from the axis of view. If the Earth were flat, all the surface would be at the same apparent angle.
Who are you to say "don't trust it," when all you have to offer is ignorant prejudice?
Interesting idea. I’m eating lunch and my chin is approximately 90 degrees perpendicular to the flat level table. As I look to the far edge, the perimeter edge is clearly curved but it is at a 45 degree angle to my chin. A penny under my face looks round but the one across the table looks oval. So the assumption that all angles are same is provable and measurable false
CGI. if you don't see it yourself don't trust it.
You can send your own camera up in a helium weather balloon to see the curvature, I wonder why FE's haven't done that yet 🤔
Done. And its not there. Actually accomplished in 1931. A man named Picard.
So apparently according to you guys our planet is the only one that's flat, you can clearly see other planets as spheres with your own telescope

This, basically.
Also: horrible cgi
