The epitome of "Science"....Mythbusters. :boggled:

Yes, I caught that also :thumbsup: Unfortunately (For your Fairytale), when the "camera" panned back to Adam, it showed the Horizon behind him... Flat as a Pancake !!

If the earth is a disk, then the horizon would necessarily have to be curved from a height, right? So you just proved flat earth theory wrong.
 
Does anyone know the flat earthers response to Starman and the 4 hour feed that anyone can go and watch, which completely and utterly destroys their arguments?
 
I predict: faked footage. Launch never really happened, and it was all staged. Just the usual really.

The launch footage available on YouTube from dozens of different people from dozens of different angles might make the no launch claim rather thin.

I suppose no evidence can convince those with faith.
 
As usual, they don't have to provide any backup, just say "It's faked, prove otherwise."

No way any evidence is going to convince them.

That never bothered 911 "truthers".

Given that, as all ideologues do, they actively avoid actual evidence, that seems to be a given.

I mean, they could test their theory by going on the ocean or calculating shadow angles at different latitudes, etc. but they don't, of course. They make Youtube videos, and that's really important.

According to flat earthers, the divergence of crepuscular rays proves that the sun is much closer than 93,000,000 miles.

Of course, in this instance, it is perspective that makes parallel rays appear to converge at the sun. Flat earthers like to cite perspective for a lot of things that it doesn't explain, but not for this case, which it actually does explain. Not that "anti-crepuscular" rays (opposite the sun) appear to converge on the anti-solar point, and, when they can be seen in aerial photos from above, actually do appear parallel. Of course, an inability to understand basic geometry is pretty much a prerequisite for being a flat earther.
 
I don't think we should take flat earthers seriously. The site, last I checked, 2011 or so, is full of trolls engaging in exercises in debate and epistemology.

Ah, I see. So these rails are not parallel, then?
