Hi all,
I am very green on this particular subject as i only came accross this website and subject yesterday and it has grabbed my attention in a big way. At first thought i was thinking "no way is this possible" but after a few hours of research i can quite clearly see you guys are on to something here.
I have a question though or maybe two that i would love to know the answers to.
Q1: The only way to prove this theory conclusively would be to go to the end of the world. Has anyone done this or is anyone planning to?
Q2: What benefit does the government gain in leading us into believing that earth is a sphere?
Look forward to responses.
Regarding Q1, correct. There are two approaches to this. The first is to find the truth for yourself. This trip is much cheaper to plan and requires on contingency as you must expect this to be a one way journey. The second is to find the truth and bring it back in a form that cannot be refuted. Your hurdles include and are not limited to:
1) Isolation on the ocean.
2) Your vessel's capabilities against the rigors of inclement weather.
3) No true measure of how many supplies to bring.
4) Managing a crew if any, relative to the size of your vessel.
5) Possibility of military interference.
Don't expect to use the internet or attempt to as you will only produce a signature. Don't expect to use fuel for the same reason. Spray your sail boat down in thermal resistant coating. Without putting too much thought in it there you go.
Regarding Q2, the huge benefit is maintaining order. Society is functional and managed at this time and there is no benefit to introduce turbulence to an otherwise perfect system of management.
