The question is not whether they withstand opposition or not. But rather, how much importance you want to grant to some random aspie. It's just like Jordan Peterstein said:

you know, this is observably, demonstrably false. I grew up in Florida and once or twice a year my old man would take me up to watch shuttle launches. They went up but they sure didn't come down for a few days.

The stupid people are the one's that watch propaganda for entertainment or think it's a good thing to post
Like I get videos can make good points (though they're not a replacement for you saying something yourself), but these kinds of videos are tailor-made propaganda, even has the whole literal atrocity propaganda at the start
The whole thing is masturbating redditor types because they watch it and go
>"haha, yes, those dummy dumbos are so dumb, good thing I am better than them and believe mr youtube man, haha, I'm smart"
None of it makes sense, it's just presented as if it does and implies, obviously, that if you don't follow it you are one of the dumbos
>You can fight against malice but not idiocy because you can use violence against malicious people
Like this. What is it supposed to mean? It's stated like it's profound but you can obviously punch a dumb person exactly as much as an evil person, every sentence in these is some kind of "if you kill your enemies, they win" stupid bullshit that's just meant to sound like it makes sense

Why post it? Stupid people are stupid and bad and don't think right? Why do you need to make this point? Why do you feel as if you can't make it yourself?

Dozens of inconsistencies have been pointed out with the flat-earth model as well, many of which you've refused to reply to in this thread. I can't even count all the times the things you've asserted have been either refuted logically, or directly contradicted with more substantial evidence.

>based on demonstrable and reproducible experiments
Even more have been done confirming that the earth is flat, but you've dismissed every single one of them as "NASA shills" without actually disputing their studies for their material.
You've set an impossible standard for any scientist or witness that could have refuted your worldview through ad hominem alone, because apparently everyone who proves you wrong is a "NASA/Freemason shill", even when they have no apparent connection to either organization. You claim that actors like NASA have absurd amounts of far-reaching influence on every continent, without any evidence to support it, let alone why or how; if you asked any other /pol/ack how or why the Jews control the global media and politics, you'd get a mountain of evidence in minutes, but you keep dodging those same questions about NASA. You lump all of them together as part of some grand conspiracy that has supposedly gotten all those separate parties to agree with seamless efficiency. You refuse to answer to anyone who makes an evidence-backed argument as a "shill" (ad hominem), without even trying to refute their arguments. You claim, without evidence, that any video or photograph that challenges your worldview is "photoshopped" without providing evidence or even trying to pursue evidence (such as checking noise patterns).
Not only that, preemptively excluding anyone who might have a connection to aerospace, geography or astrology organizations (in ALL countries, apparently) effectively excludes all scientists in that field, leaving only sketchy YouTubers as an excuse for a source.
What kind of argument would actually convince you? What kind of scientific source would you even consider acceptable if it proved the earth was round? What's your actual standard of evidence? Who would you accept that kind of evidence from? What kind of evidence would you consider to meet your standards of proof? Do you seriously only accept evidence that reaffirms your worldview?
How is anyone supposed to take you seriously like this? Is this how you intend to convince people that the world is flat?

>no meme or rationale to explain the curving phenomena
To answer the question, the rocket curves *because* the world is round: because the world isn't flat, gravity doesn't pull straight 'down', but towards the center of the earth, which is why a long-range rocket's path is a segment of an ellipse.
And, in a hypothetical circumstance that we lived on a flat 'realm' where 'gravity' represented a single-direction force, the rocket would still curve, because the rocket would travel both horizontally and vertically, but only it's vertical travel would be affected by said one-dimensional gravity: the difference is that for flat earth the rocket would be a sharper parabola, rather than an elliptical segment, and long-range rockets would be less of a pain to aim.

Speaking of lasers, remember the time they spent $20k to buy a laser gyroscope to prove there was no actual planetary rotation, and accidentally proved there was rotation? Cuz, ya know, its not flat?

This is exactly what the "respectable scientists" do all the time.

It is fucking preposterous.

No idea what you're going for, the earth is NOT a sphere, plain and simple
>hurrr, cuz its flat
Its an oblate sphereoid. The curvature is different depending on where you ARE on the planet. Theres no simplified calculation that can give you accurate results that do not account for first calculating the exact curvature a specific area will show.
>it wouldnt be that significant tho!
Wont know until the correct calculations are done then. Something you fags stll need to work on, correct calculations. But that would get in the way wouldnt it?
See, when a person is convicted to an idea, they tend to strawman the opposition's argument in their haste to try and debunk it. This manifests as a lack of due diligence when attempting to present the opposition's position. Such as using a simplified version of the model and then debunking that simplified (read: inaccurate) model.
>but but, thats what you're doing
No, Im mot trying to debunk your/their model. Im pointing to the untenable elements of the equation, which would give rise to the skewed results one is seeing.
If you can find evidence that dozens of holes CAN'T be poked in, Ill be the first to admit it.
Still waiting tho

As you can see indicated in the previous citation and this one from their sourcepage, no allowance was made for the sphereoid natureof the planet, they are calculating it as though the planet is a theoretical (read: perfect) sphere.

Correction: if you're willing to crunch the numbers and illustrate how the variance is/would-be negligable, that would be a credible counterpoint. Its plausible, given the localized environment of the experiment.
Having said, the radius from the earth's core to the equator is longest, and the radius from the north pole to the core is the shortest.

I think Eratosthenes was the first to do a real experiment proving that the Earth is round so I think technically only one millennium
People have been sailing on ships for millennia though, and people even before Eratosthenes saw how boats sink below the horizon instead of shrinking forever, but idk if that counts as an experiment

>Aristotle was not the first person to argue that Earth is round – earlier arguments date back to the 6th century B.C. But Aristotle seems to be the first to offer observational evidence using the earth’s-shadow method.
According to this also only one millennium. Also apparently I was wrong about Eratosthenes since this is saying 6th century BC and Eratosthenes was like 1-2nd or something
IIRC, the flat-earth explanation for it is that it's a random undetected, unseeable, second moon or sister planet that causes the eclipse, and that one is round for some reason

Kinda fun to make but I wish the meme didn't use such a dumb model since it's hard to get a nice trail reflection like in the image with these relative scales, though I also think I made my waves too high, and it's BSDF instead of a glass shader for actually reflective water since that would take way too long to render

Youre not taking that meme seriously, are you? Like, the image is so ridiculously modified that its absurd. Especially funny, givrn how flat earthers are all up in arms about "NASA edits" n shit. Like seriously, has one never seen a r3flection of the moon? Its not prominent, in fact the reflection of the moon is proportionate to its size in the night's sky, and such memes are disingenuous on their face.
But its quite obvious when it happens.

The flat earth thread is homosexual.
Every so often a new meme is posted, insulting people who know the earth is round. Flatties can't prove their world is flat, they just imitate a liberal's idea of conservative talking points like AI.

>Polaris stays put
It just stays northish due to it's relative position to the pole of the northern hemisphere, tracing out a small circle. It still moves vaguely, it's just that you could only tell the significant distance if you were at the north pole. The night sky changes overtime anyway. It even changes with the seasons; that's why we can see different parts of the stars at different times of the year, and why people come up with horoscopes or whatever based on what stars are most visible on a particular month.
>19.2 billion miles
A mere inch in the vastness of space. The galaxy is absolutely enormous, and the void between galaxies is even bigger.
>Galaxy is moving
Polaris is part of the milky way Galaxy, so how far the galaxy is moving isn't isn't significantly relevant because Polaris would be moving at the same speed as our sun relative to all the other stars in the galaxy.

It just stays northish due to it's relative position to the pole of the northern hemisphere, tracing out a small circle. It still moves vaguely, it's just that you could only tell the significant distance if you were at the north pole. The night sky changes overtime anyway. It even changes with the seasons; that's why we can see different parts of the stars at different times of the year, and why people come up with horoscopes or whatever based on what stars are most visible on a particular month.
>19.2 billion miles
A mere inch in the vastness of space. The galaxy is absolutely enormous, and the void between galaxies is even bigger.

This data was generated by Dennis di Cicco, impressively using mass produced 11 and then 16 inch Schmidt Cassegrain telescopes. The sine-like pattern is consistent with the expected parallax associated with Barnard's 1.833 parsec distance. It is worth noting that each of those points is derived from hundreds or thousands of digital images which were stacked, analyzed, and averaged to compensate for the disruptive effects of Earth's atmosphere, the greatest single hindrance to ground-based astrometry.

Sorry, not good enough.
That star is fixed and no amount of shilling can deny it. The heliocentric theory is bullocks,

>It still moves vaguely
I strongly disagree. When sailing, a sextant is used to know the current position, that's done pointing at Polaris and it is more than accurate. If the star moves, even slightly, the errors in the charts would be evident as they won't match with IRL coordinates.

Oh, as I went back over the thread I found this post: >>149123
It went through that arguement on how ships sink at horizon. How these ships reappear when you zoom in, meaning it the ship isn't hidden behind any curvature.
The only explanation to prove otherwise would be that those videos are fake, unlikely imo.
The second vid in this post shows and series of photos of a man walking away from a camera on football field. His lower body sinks below the horizon line. I can still not wrap my head around how this visual phenomena happens but clearly the football field is to small of a distance to experince any curvature.
I'm gonna try to recreate this as an experiment for myself. I'll lay with my cheek against hte ground of at the goalposts of a football field and then try to see the bottom of the bag I dropped at the other end.
If the bag's bottom is gone, this doesn't necessarily prove the earth is flat but it does prove that black man scientist is using faulty reasoning in his proofs in the last vid in this post. That alone speaks volumes to me.

The stars are part of the same galaxy, so they're moving with relative relation to the earth as well.
The sky changes over time, but it takes thousands of years because there's so much distance to travel.
This doesn't prove anything.

>Implying if you don't personally see it, it can't possibly be true
Well, you could refer to ancient Egyptians who built a pyramid at exactly 30 degrees longitude and latitude in their time based on the stars above them, while the stars above them shifted to change those coordinates since then.
The sky changes over time. It has in human history.
And tbh, the sky changing slightly over time doesn't even necessitate the world being round. It could happen in flat earth too.

The Scientific Method demands that observations and experiments to be reproducible. If only a selected priest caste has the means to do it, more yet, their sponsors forbid anyone to build and fly airships without their consent and regulation, then the Scientific Method is violated and what is left are just myths based on faith.

Okay, I know science is often controlled by corporate greed, but how do you expect the means for scientific experiments to be distributed evenly? Science has always been done by those with means: the equipment to do so isn't free.
Not denying the obvious corruption or conflicts of interest in the scientific communities or their sponsors, but I'm just curious about how you think scientific institutions should be run/funded.

I don't think so, your train of thought is about to pick "space", "cosmos", "gravitational forces" and alike up. All of them are demonstrable non-sense and a hoax.

So, no, you wouldn't take it from astronomers then, even if they wrote their steps out entirely.
What kind of source would you even accept to prove it then? What is your standard of evidence?
Idk how anything is supposed to be proved if people go about dismissing those who dedicated their lives to studying the topics without reading them.

There is something very wrong with their science. No curve ---> no planet ---> no space ---> no cosmos ---> no gravity
Just not finding the curve makes the whole "science" fall down like a house of cards.

The curve has been shown evidently by hundreds of sources. You've been selectively choosing results that reaffirm your worldview.
But of course, anyone who isn't a shady YouTuber or a Facebook memer is a NASA shill, right?
>space
Holy shit, the world doesn't even need to be round for that. It is a fact of life that the air gets thinner with higher altitude. Go hiking in the mountains after spending a year at sea level and you'll know.
Can you not even imagine a "realm" where the air is so thin that there's basically nothing at all?
That aside, there's hundreds of different forms of evidence that space exists, but I'm not even going to bother listing them this time because all of the other times I did you called them "NASA shills".
>no cosmos
The "cosmos" are whatever you see in the sky above you: something you can literally see.
>no gravity
Again, has been confirmed and reaffirmed in so many different ways, but you wouldn't accept even a single source that contradicts your worldview. So now we're just contradicting each other to no end.
