Not sure if you're actually informed on cosmology, or just kidding.

But space is actually proven to be virtually flat (to instrument precision): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_universe

This is insult to gay

Are such a nigger that you think an object disappearing bottom up is proof of a curvature?

Seriously go kill yourself nigger. LOW IQ GROID ALERT. i've addressed your pathetic attempt at what you hilariously consider logic already you waste of air.


Gather around niggers and faggots for it is that special time of the year where i once again endeavor to educate a certain type who sees it all except that which is clear before him. For those of you who are familiar with how straight lines work you will appreciate this expansion.

Resolution power:

Lets talk about resolution. Resolution is the quality of the image, how many points are distinguishable from each other enabling greater detail/clarity. For instance if you were to place two dots as close to each other on a piece of paper as you possibly could while still being able to easy see them as two dots. Then place that paper across the room on the wall from you would be able to back away from the paper until a distance between you and it is reached so that the two dots no longer are distinguishable from each other, but now appear to be one single dot.

It looks like a single dot but we know its not, while staring at the single dot one could use a phone camera to zoom in and clearly see its still two dots. This would be the resolution power difference between the human eye and the device. The human eye has a 0.0003 radian resolution, it can detect objects 30cm apart at a distance of 1km assuming 20/20 vision. This is why we use telescopes to view things that are far, and microscopes to view things that are small.

Vanishing point:

The vanishing point is the optical illusion created when circumstances are met so that two objects appear to have converged into one. This is a direct result of the Angle of view and Resolution power of the observer in respect to the observed.

With our understanding now of Resolution and Perspective we can move forward to explaining why objects disappear "bottom up". You could for instance lay down on your stomach in a field and have your friend walk away from you and you'll notice that as he moves further away from you his legs will start to merge/ disappear into the grass before his torso. This is because if you were to draw a straight line from the lens of your eye to where you are looking at your friends legs as he moves away the grass will start to intersect the line of observation thus creating two points that no longer become distinguishable from each other. If you were to stand up the tangent point of the grass and your friends legs now becomes two objects that are easy to distinguish from each other.

Now lets go to a beach on a clear day with a pair of binoculars and a super zoom camera. If you were to lay down on the beach and watch a ship sail away until it starts to disappear bottom up, this effect being caused by the waves between the observer and observed becoming converged by limits of angle AND resolution. Now stand up and notice how the same boat came back into view, this is because the two points now become observably further away from each other allowing them to be distinguished.

In the same standing position let the ship move further away so that it appears as it did when laying down, only this time use a pair of binoculars to observe. Instead of modifying angle, we modified resolution. The points between the ship and the lens over the binoculars now being easier to distinguish as individual points.

Waiting for the ship to completely vanish now bring out the super zoom camera and focus on the ship. All done without adjusting height of observation (angle of view) or position of observation.

When a ship or object disappears bottom up it has nothing to do with the curvature of the Earth. This phenomena is how your eyes work and would be observed on BOTH a globe model or a flat model of the Earth. The height required to actually observe the curvature effect of the earth is between 35,000 FT and 40,000 FT provided accesses to 60 degree FOV.

All arguments saying X object disappearing proves Y are null and void, their promoters low IQ niggers that had to have someone hold their hand on how your own eyes work.

Its always interesting that i show proof that there is no curve, and the first thing anyone wants to do is ask questions about something else other than the curve.


You assume there is a dome. What do you assume Polaris to be? I've made no assertions to either. Do you also have assumptions as to its size and height relative to the observer?

My statement is simple. Earth is flat. There is no curvature. Try focusing on that one.

no you can't. Shouldn't anyway.
