And I am not joking at all, but I found this just a while ago. Because let’s be honest, I thought everyone knew that the Earth was round. Now I am not calling the people in Flat Earth Society stupid but…
It just sounds like one of those weird and “out there” conspiracy theories to me. Then again, maybe I am the stupid one here. But I don’t think so since a few days ago; a Redditor amazed_spirit shared an image on top of the Mount Everest with the caption‘Checkmate flat Earth society.’
In this picture, you can clearly see the slight curve of the Earth in the background.
I think all of you know that Mount Everest is the highest mountain above sea level and is located in the Mahalangur Himal sub-range of the Himalayas on the border between China and Nepal.
Forget about dumb curvature arguments. The fact that you can only see 2.5% at a time proves it isn’t flat.
If it was flat you should be able to see the whole thing from even just the top of the tallest mountain or on any commercial flat.
However son of famous flat-earther Dave Murphy, Connor has spoken about this before in a documentary. You can watch it as follows.
There are two good reasons in my opinion. One obvious reason would be money.
The money raised by NASA alone since their inception is something like fifteen trillion dollars, and with that money they’ve really shown little for their work.
They’re releasing composite images and articles and telling you this is what’s happening, this is what we’re doing, and we spent seven hundred million dollars to get this photo of Pluto that we had to put together in Photoshop.
A second thing is to make people feel insignificant. It makes you feel like you’re an insignificant speck of dust and therefore you’re easy to control.
Basically if you can imagine the globe squashed down with Antarctica instead of being its own continent, being the perimeter around the side. So a lot of people say that’s an ice wall. It’s more like a shelf or cliff.
Fall off into what, do you know what I’m saying? The way we see it is it’s an enclosed system.
There’s water above, there’s the firmament – or the dome – and there’s water above it and water below it and there’s no leaving it, there’s no finding other Suns and stuff. You can’t fall off the edge, essentially.
You cannot see curvature from a plane. The reason why it may seem is because of the way planes have to be designed. Every single window on a plane has to be round and curved because the cabin itself is curved.
You can’t have straight panes or they would explode and everyone with the plane would be done. Next time you’re on a plane, look out the window and at the wing, because the wing will seem to curve as well.
So where do you lie on this spectrum? Do you think the Earth is flat or are people just making it up? Comment on below and let us know.
