How do you explain taking a trip around the world? Heading east until you arrive at your origin.
You're just making a big circle.

Also, go to a very northern or southern latitude and watch the stars, compare your results to the night sky at a equator. It's really pretty cool.
Well, in the northern latitude, you're looking at them from the left. In the southern, you're looking at them from the right. Of course they'll look different.

It's pretty amazing that every pilot on earth is in cahoots to keep up the earth being round lie. You would think one of them would eventually spill the beans

The sad thing is that the whole "Flat Earth" thing was a huge troll and now people really believe it.
We are dumb.

Very, very dumb

I'm missed that class in flight school, but I've certainly flown around the world.

Not seeing that Rebel is fricking with you is almost as dumb as believing in a flat earth

I can't believe people waste time arguing about this.

You, of all people, have no right to tell people what arguments are and are not a waste of time

Uh, I'm a bit hesitant to bring this up right now, but given that Rebel just dragged you over about four pages of blatant trolling that you didn't pick up on, this might not be the best time for you to derogate other posters...
But whatever.

I’m saying with his history he can’t chastise people for pointless arguments, which this is one.

Yeah, I got that. And I was just saying... Well, never mind.

I only realized this when I watched the video, but you get two scientific theories that haven't been valid for hundreds of years for the price of one.
According to those people, they also think the sun is localized to the earth, thus rejecting a heliocentric universe. So **** you, Galileo.

It was a huge troll. That got taken over by people that take it seriously. With the trolls still in it.
So it's either treat em all as trolls.
Treat em all as retards.
But a lot of this I blame on Columbus being mistaught as him trying to prove the earth was round and not that the distance between Europe and India via the Atlantic was a shorter, safer trip. Because no one expected a landmass there.

Remember when they were searching for that missing plane going out of Malaysia and their projected routes were curved?

And? We're on a spheroid.

I was born in Yuba City, and lived in Wheatland, CA until I was 10. We had sonic booms out of what appeared to be a clear blue sky, almost daily.
It will always be my favorite plane. The pilot we knew said nobody really knows how fast the plane actually is. The engines are more powerful and efficient the faster you go, so gains are exponential when you are pushing it.

That's the point.
