Maybe the earth is flat (1 Viewer)

[ILUVBEER99]

The best part is that all his "formulas" and his ability to calculate a trajectory are founded on the laws and mathematics of a spherical earth. 

Here is some video footage of his last launch.  Anyway, I don't think he views this as the definitive flight to prove flat earth.  I believe this is another stepping stone towards a much higher planned flight in the future.  Maybe he can take BoB and Kyrie along with him as a passengers.

Was his parachute supposed to be all tattered with holes in it?

Mechanical problems and lack of proper permit puts mission on hold for now.  https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/11/26/566583007/flat-earther-postpones-launch-in-his-homemade-rocket-saying-it-s-not-easy

the rocket launcher he had built out of a used motor home "broke down in the driveway" on Wednesday, according to Hughes. He said in a YouTube announcementthat they'd eventually gotten the launcher fixed — but the small matter of federal permission proved a more serious stumbling block (for now).

I'm guessing, flat

No wonder Alaska smells like cat ####.

if it was flat, wouldn't the water just be pouring off?

That's where the rain comes in.

This time he questions if slavery happened in America.

“You ever seen a slave ship? They can find a billion year old dinosaur bone but can’t find any slave ships,” he said in an Instagram post.

Has anybody ever actually seen Bob's brain?

Nope?

QED, it doesn't exist.

I want this guy to launch his rocket more than anything rn.

One of his supporters in the comments. 

He not saying slavery didn't happened. All he is saying is that they enslaved the black people who where already here. It's sad black people can't believe nobody but the white man. Why don't u go do ur research on what he is talking about. Y'all just as sleep as ever!! Go to YouTube and look up kerry Davis and learn something. Y'all don't even care where u really came from. U just except any story the give u. Remember the the first thing u learn in history class is Columbus dis covered America and everybody knows that's a lie.

This is so dumb. 

What is the rationale for lying about the shape of the earth supposed to be??

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I believe the earth was once spherical, but that Tom Brady deflated it and it is now a circle, perhaps an ellipsoid.

Hi Elon, thanks for the question. Unlike the Earth, Mars has been observed to be round. We hope you have a fantastic day!

So flat earthers concede that Mars and the moon are round but still maintain that Earth is flat? Holt ####

It's BIG globe. Who would be buying globes if the earth was flat?

Morons want to live in their own reality. Stupid science people aren't going to tell them what to do, unlike the rest of the sheeple. If they acknowledged this basic level of science it would probably break them, as they'd then have to confront all the ways they've been duped and how utterly moronic they really are.

So there is no stated reason for the "lie" then?

 

[El Floppo]

have the flat earthers explained how gravity works on the pancake? I'd be curious to hear their explanation. could be like the rocket man, where things like thermo/aero/fluiddynamics and calculations (and gravity) aren't really science.

Not yet.

Kyrie!

My 7th grader was telling me the other day that this is apparently a thing at her middle school now and alot of the kids believe it. Thanks Trump.

Well, I'm convinced

I actually admire part of their message.  They absolutely should be skeptical of claims and question why they should believe something.  The problem, however, is that they are too scientifically illiterate to make valid judgement on the evidence before them.

Still not sure how this endeavor was supposed to go towards proving the Earth is flat, but amazing job by him building, launching, riding and landing a rocket.

Of course he could just go up to the top of a tall building and achieve a similar altitude without risking his life. Or just get on a space vehicle...aka airplane.

This quote says it all.

Am I glad I did it? Yeah. I guess,” he told the Associated Press. “I'll feel it in the morning. I won't be able to get out of bed. At least I can go home and have dinner and see my cats tonight.”

This is a real gem... The Flat Earth International Conference for 2020 is planning a cruise!  Someone should ask them how the ship will be able to find its way.

Just like I like my women, flat and domed.

These are, indeed, glorious times we live in.  

Couldn't they just sail from Tierra del Fuego to South Africa and prove the Earth is flat?  Looking at that picture, it seems like on a globe, those two points would be much closer than on a flat earth.  No?

UA.  Duh.

Just watched this Netflix documentary on Flat Earthers.  The one thing that struck me as painfully true... every single flat earther has multiple cats.  Nufced.

 

[Chaka]

Every day Idiocracy looks more and more like a documentary.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

I wonder what the hell the flat earthers think the earth really looks like.

Sorta like a pizza.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

"The north pole is in the middle" 

Kind of like that little plastic triangle they put in the middle of a pizza.

If the earth was made of pizza, would you eat it?

I would but I'm concerned about the gluten.

 

[TheIronSheik]

If the earth was made of pizza, would you eat it? 

This just makes me think of Will Ferrell doing Harry Carey on SNL.  

"It's a simple question, Norm.  Would you eat it."

 

[Parrothead]

The theory about us being contained within an enormous dome, which includes the sun, is new to me. These folks might just be on to something.
