The howling winds, hail/snow storms, and hurricane-like weather prevents safe travel beyond the Ice Wall. Most pilots are not brave enough (or stupid enough) to fly into such a dangerous enviroment. The ones who have (if any) have vanished without a trace.Very convinient. Would it be possible to send an unmanned drone or vehicle on a research trip (suicide) trip?
I'm sorry, but which countries use the imperial system again?
Australia might not exist, but we still do not use this system, in any field.
I highly doubt that Australia, even if such a place existed, would ignore an industry standard solely because that standard is in imperial units. Unless you're claiming that such a place manufactures 100% of it's own materials, then you should heavily weigh your own statement and realize that you have no real basis for the claims you just made. I will go as far as to assert that you don't work in any industry, much less all of them simultaneously.
Actually, it's funny, but the fastest way for someone to broadcast that they aren't in any scientific field (or at the very least, have yet to exit a university) is to complain that people aren't using the metric system. In most fields, especially engineering, the imperial and metric system are used side by side, as the most broadly standardized unit in a field is always used, which could easily be metric, imperial, or some horrific mix of both. The only people who are truly anal about using the metric system also happen to be the people who probably don't use most of it anyway.I'm sorry, but which countries use the imperial system again?
On the contrary, sir, there is plenty of evidence the earth is flat.Excuse my ignorance. the reason i made that point was that irushwithscvs posted a recommendation to seek other knowledge elsewhere. Wherever i go to seek extra knowledge, i am bombarded with absolutely nothing suggesting that anyone outside a blind fringe group ( no offence ) has even considered that the earth is flat.I was taking the role of the devil's advocate, and employing reductio ad absurdum.
I respectfully request that you keep my nationality out of this pizaaplanet.
Australians are just as intelligent and respectable as Americans
You can be assured, i agree with everything you are saying
What are your precise questions? I will try to supply you with the resources to discover the answers.
How about any actual irrefutable evidence that the Earth is flat?
However, it all relies on human observation, as all the satellites in the world are owned and bankrolled by NASA and the CIA.
I am afraid that your information is incorrect. There is no need to rely on satellites. The knowledge that the Earth is round was found thousands of years before satellites where around.
Human observations that led to this knowledge include but are not limited to:
-The gradual disappearance of ships over the horizon, the tops of the sails disappearing last.
-The shape of the curved shadow of the earth on the moon during eclipses.
-The variation of the sun's elevation with latitude. (This was the basis of Eratosthenes' measurement.)
-The variation of a star's elevation with latitude. The fact that one sees new stars as one moves north or south on the earth's surface.

Where is the evidence for Aetheric Acceleration? Please explain in Laymans terms, as i am no physicist ( or flat-earther )There are various flat Earth models that maintain the Earth as an infinite plane and therefore in no need of any barrier keeping things from "falling off" the sides.
Adding to this, there are various flat Earth models that work without the Earth being infinite.
Aetheric Acceleration theory states that the aether is a force that pushes the Earth upwards, a lot of this aether escapes from the bottom of the disc and makes it way upward due to its acceleration. This creates a barrier (or wall, if you will) around Earth that keeps the water in.
I am noticing a pattern amongst FE'ers, the inability to point out much evidence, but purely to redirect someone to another source of evidence. Either admit that you don't know, or take the trouble to enlighten us. Claiming that you won't repeat yourself repeatedly is not an excuse to leave a discussion. If you don't want to repeat yourself ad infinitum, don't post.Measurements point to it being true.
So... who to believe? Someone who simply cannot think or a scientific measurement? I choose the scientific measurement.
Whether or not the bulge is significant or not, it is not a perfect sphere. A difference of 42 kms is pretty small on a planetary scale, but certainly seems large enough if you were to go out and travel 42 kms.
Your analogy of rounding 0.3 to 1 instead of to 0 is an inaccurate analogy.
An oblate spheroid is a rotationally symmetric ellipsoid having a polar axis shorter than the diameter of the equatorial circle whose plane bisects it.
Because the difference is only 42 kms does not mean that the definition is moot.
Perhaps if you learn more about RET, you'll understand why it isn't true. I suggest going over more geodesy topics before engaging me again; I won't repeat myself ad infinitum only to have you argue the same incorrect point in a likewise manner.
