Flat Earth Theory / Re: How does FET explain these very simple errors
« on: August 17, 2017, 12:14:15 PM »
The theory of Stellar Fusion uses a different mechanism/reaction sequence, and has never been demonstrated in a lab or a bomb.

Tom, you are 100% incorrect. Stellar fusion and weapon fusion are the exact same process. Hydrogen atoms are compressed together, the fuse into helium atom, the resultant atom weighs less than 2 two hydrogen atoms. The lost mass is converted to energy. (E=MC^2) In the Sun, the compressive force is gravity. In a fusion bomb, the compressive force is provided by a fission bomb that sets off the fusion reaction.

Waiting for the deuterium complaint....

If I recall (been a few years) weren't the bombs fission bombs not fusion bombs? At least the A-Bombs. H we have much less experimental evidence for, and I don't remember at all fusion or fission on that one.

Fission bombs are much smaller. Large, megaton-class bombs are fusion bombs. Scientists are able to create fusion in lab conditions.

Now why would I need to see a friggin satellite with my own two eyes when I see millions of dishes staring up at the sky to receive satellite TV all over the world dear flatters? Why? Let's start talking about some heavy-duty conspiracy here!


If those millions of satellite dish users all around the globe, the dish production companies all around the world, the S receiver production companies all around the world, the users of said devices all around the world, ordinary people, are ALL in on the conspiracy, then we're talking some major heavy duty huge ass conspiracy here! Mother!

Yes yes, I pressing this satellite TV dish sht on flatters. How o how do you flatters plan to explain your way our of this? :)

Cheers.

The "satellite" dishes are a type of receiver antenna. Satellites don't use some sort of "special" non-radio signal, signal. If you believe your dish is going up into outer space to get TV you're a chump and fell for a marketing gimmick.

I suppose those tricky satellite TV companies shaped their receivers like a dish to be tricky, huh? No need for a plain old antenna when a dish looks cooler. I mean we can literally see satellites moving across the sky, but we're the chumps, right..... I have a small telescope and can see the space station when it passes over head. If the Earth is flat, how does it move around without some type of propulsion?

Take some pictures and post!

Awaiting updates!
No visible passes in the near future. (and yes, I did check - http://iss.astroviewer.net/) I'd be happy to post the telescope since you need proof. That being said, I could probably find a small satellite, but it would be too small to make out and you would just claim I photoshopped it anyways, right?

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
1. Is there no gravity? How do objects orbit the sun if that is the case? Fusion is absolutely real. That is beyond doubt. (actually, the Earth being round is beyond doubt as well, so I guess anything goes)
2. Why is space travel impossible??? Why have no FETers at least tried??? Seems they take a lot on faith.
3. Why no map? Are they too lazy to map the plane they live on?

I've seen a lot of comments about only trusting what your senses tell you. So I guess bacteria and viruses are big hoaxes, too? Electro-magnetic spectrum?? Can only see a small portion of that. I can't see microwaves, but they sure warm my food up.
1. The rest of the objects have gravity. It works to varying degrees based on who you ask. Fusion has not been experimentally observed, and is therefore not real (this is what I heard last time the issue came up).
2. Because it was 100 years ago, and something impossible doesn't just become possible. You can't prove it's possible because NASA hides all the schematics to make your own space craft. (Again, answer I got last time it came up.)
3. They don't have the resources to spend attempting to make a map of the world, because they would have to start from scratch because they don't know any distances. (Tom has famously said we don't know the actual distance between NY and Paris in the thread about airline flight times.)

I don't know about the rest of those honestly. One of the biggest issues with debating the topic is damn near every FE hypothesis believer has a different idea for how at least one thing works. Usually dozens, and a lot of them simply fall back on religion, or (as Tom does) prove them wrong. Tom in particular seems to assume his position is the default, and requires mountains of evidence for any claim about the Earth being round, far more so than he has ever presented for the Earth being flat.

LOL - fusion has never been experimentally observed?? I guess those islands in the south pacific just blew up on their own. lol, I know CGI. Totally had that back in the 50's.  This site is hilarious/maddening.

Flat Earth Theory / Why space launches?
« on: August 17, 2017, 01:00:03 AM »
Why do private companies spend millions of dollars to launch satellites into space if you can't get into space? Why are there private companies providing these services? Is everyone in on the conspiracy and are REALLY good at keeping secrets??

Another question - how does satellite radio work? I can drive anywhere and never lose the signal. (provided I have line of sight to the sky) I wish my cell phone was half as good. Why would a private company claim to be satellite radio if it isn't possible??? Again, in on the conspiracy?

There are a lot other FE items.
Take too much time to list all of them.
 
(2) Space travel is impossible because the earth is covered by a dome and anything that tried to go higher would collide with the dome. What the dome is made of is another question ?. Some say water, some say ice, and some say it is some kind of metal like brass. Lights in the sky are just reflections of lights on the earth.

But a few.:
All scientists are evil.
So is any branch of science.
NASA seems to be the FE's arch-enemy.
NASA is an anagram for SATAN.
I'm not sure if and where the horizon would be on the flat earth, but, one is that you would not see a horizon, but just "An indistinct blur that fades away at an indefinite distance."
Et cetera, et cetera and so forth !
A dome that prevents space travel. Well surely we can see this dome or launch a rocket into it. There is no dome. You know it, I know it. If it was there, we could easily prove that.
Scientists are people, some good, some bad. Bet you don't hate them when you need medical care. I would love to know what makes science EVIL. (muhahahahaha - that's how they laugh, right?)
NASA is not an anagram for Satan. You're missing a letter. I'll bet you're fun around Christmas - SANTA!!!!!
I live on the shores of a very large body of water and can clearly see the horizon. It doesn't blur to nothing. It is a clear distinct line.
Please get help.

Flat Earth Theory / Re: Circumnavigation: Traveling in a Straight Line
« on: August 17, 2017, 12:28:17 AM »
Tom Bishop -

That's a bit rude.  If you asked me a question , I would answer if I knew the answer and give it to you. If I didn't have it handy, I would look it up and send you the answer. These are flat earth questions for flat earthers to give flat earth answers.

For example, on another thread , you said "The distance from New York to Paris is unknown."  I looked it up. The distance from NewYork to Paris is 3,625 miles.

You are giving the Flat Earth Society a bad name. If you don't know the answer, just be honest and say so !

I would be glad to give you some real answers to some real questions.
For Example : The circumference of the earth at the equator  is approximately 25,000 miles.

And if 1000 people were asking you the same questions over and over and over you would probably eventually publish your work and direct any and all inquiries to it. That is what we did, over 100 years ago.

It's funny, you'd almost think these ardent adherents to FET would have these answers ready to point out to all skeptics. I read the Wiki and it is full of very obvious errors and omissions. Nothing new in the last 100 years, but real science keeps marching on as we learn new things about the universe. Anyone that believes this stuff when it is so very easily falsifiable is beyond help. FET doesn't even have a map of their flat Earth. I mean c'mon, at least come up with a freaking map!

First, let me say this site is fantastic. Who doesn't like a little nutty conspiracy theory once in awhile. I have a feeling that 90% of the supposed FE supporters are actually just faking it for fun or to encourage critical thinking. I do worry about the other 10% who are suffering from delusional paranoia.

I read the Wiki and there are some very glaring facts that blow this "theory" out of the water.

The sun and planets. So FET says the Sun is roughly 3000 miles away and is only 32 miles across. A few things. 32 miles is not large enough to create enough gravitational pressure to initiate fusion in hydrogen gas. (and we do know what the sun is burning because of its spectral lines) You lack the mass.

The planets are small and orbit the sun a couple thousand miles away. If this is true, why has no group of intrepid FETers launched a mission to these tiny planets to prove to the world that the Earth is flat? I think we all know that answer to that one.

Your model of sunlight is verifiable incorrect. If the Earth is laid out as proposed, some locations in the east would still be in daylight, while areas southwest would be in the dark. A simple phone call between two people, one positioned southwest of another could prove that the Earth is illuminated by this "flashlight" sun. Why hasn't this very easy, inexpensive test been done??? Again, we know the answer.

Edge continent that keeps the air in. LOL, hard not to laugh when typing that. Where is this 50K foot tall wall of rock or ice surrounding this flat expanse of land?? Surely it could be mapped by a simple mission. Again, the answer to why no one has done this is very clear. Also, the theory about dark energy holding in the air is completely false. Dark energy and matter are named that because they DON'T INTERACT with normal matter. It wouldn't be dark energy if it was holding all the air in. lol

There are many other obvious problems with FET - what causes this acceleration that gives the illusion of gravity, why don't the sun, moon, and planets simply crash into the Earth? I could go on - magnetism without a metallic core, the seaborne radar problem, the fake vanishing point argument. Good fun, but the believers in this stuff are...well, I'll be nice and say nothing.
