Flat Earth Theory / Flat Earth Proof??? Why Not!
« on: December 06, 2017, 01:14:34 PM »
Just curious. Why doesn't the Flat Earth Society and/or others such as the Flat Earth International Conference either support, sponsor or conduct their own proof using High Altitude Balloons with Cameras? Can't they launch one? Can't they inspect all the gear (esp. the camera) for accuracy, and that it has not been tampered with by NASA or someone?
Why not? Schools do this really easy, but to the Flat Earth supporters, it is faked, or the camera messed with the image. Do one yourself. If there was a conference, they had to make enough in profits to support this endeavor. In fact I know they made enough to support this. Or, why not start a kickstarter? Something to shut us Round Earth proponents up. This would be very easy to do, and relatively cheap.
My guess is you don't, because you don't want the answer it may provide. I think that this, like other things, it is easier to stay ignorant, than to try. You could shock the entire world with this. Heck, you could probably stream the event live, and get your message out to the world. Instead of using pseudo-science to try and explain things, you can seriously end the debate with this. If the balloon gets up there and shows the world flat, with no curve to the earth,...than this could seriously change science forever. Just one little balloon and camera could stop us round-earthers from hitting you with science.
Or, you can rely on some guy in California to launch himself in a homemade rocket and kill himself in support of this cause. Either way works.
