Dave, what's the diameter of a circle with a 3 mile radius?

Hey Dave, on your graph, pick a random spot on it and calculate the length of a segment on that curve that, at scale, would be about 6 miles in length. Then tell me how curved that segment looks, or if it's relatively flat.

When are we going to get to discussing the Flood of Noah?

Because of what Clete said. View the image he posted Dave, and read his explanation.

See this post:

Not a whole lot, really, haha.

Hey, DFT_Dave. I want to ask you, was the following image taken on the surface of a sphere or a flat plane?

Oooh, interesting. I just came across this page that goes through the math (formulas and all) of raising the altitude of the ISS every so often due to orbital decay. https://physicsfromplanetearth.wordpress.com/2017/02/

Wow, 2400 posts in this thread already. How many did the first have?

Dave, quick question: Does the Hubble Space Telescope exist?

:mock::rotfl:

You haven't been too forthright with the flat earth model you support, Dave. Pardon me if I argue against something you don't believe in. Dave, is the sun a point of light surrounded by a clear spherical surface (like a glass (not saying it's glass) covering such as on a lightbulb)? or is it a...

So you're rejecting the reason the balloon photos look different than the ISS photos, that the ISS is at least 220 miles above the highest ever balloon, because... Why? "Because the clouds look the same"? I'm sorry, but that's not a good enough reason to reject the reason why photos of the...

Is this coming from the flat earth side? Because you apparently ignored what I just asked: "DOES IT LOOK like a disk?" Dave, if from all points on the sphere, light is being emitted in all directions, then is it possible that some light is being emitted in directions parallel to light emitted...

Because it seems you missed it: Dave, is the sun in the sky a point of light? or does it look like a disk? If light is coming from all points on that disk, then it can be said that rays of light are parallel. Overlooking some things and exaggerating other smaller issues can certainly...

We could also just as well argue that different lenses create different curves, and that the true horizon is actually curved and not flat at all. See how that works, Dave? There's more variables that your not taking into consideration every time you try to assert something as proof of flat...

No, Dave, NASA is a civilian run organization. It's not military.

Dave, is it at all possible that your image and the ones I posted are taken from two different cameras that have different internals (such as aperture, lenses, etc), and if so, is it possible that the differences themselves in the cameras are what cause the images to be different? If so, then...

Just some screenshots I took of the livestream David has so kindly linked to. Notice how the horizon is curved (better seen in the livestream itself) the same way no matter where Earth is in the frame?
