Nope, they set out actual portable telescopes, like the kind you can buy at a store (for a lot of money). They just set up a bunch outdoors, and people can walk around and look through them. They have experienced staff there that can help aim the telescopes at specific planets and such. It's the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory, their next open house is January 28th. Here's a picture from one such open house:

Best time to do star gazing is obviously during the day :wacko:

You dodged by main questions, so since you cant explain it - your entire Ball Earth is a joke.

The "experienced" people operating the telescopes are part of the conspiracy.


hmm yes, Look at those people looking though the telescopes, i guess the University photoshopped them out....

Which assumption is disproved exactly?


flat earth how people think it works

good point. i have the same opinion on flat earth just like you.
there are some good points out there and one could believe the world was flat.
BUT this argument is just the best & clearest for me. there is no doubt for me that there is anything wrong with this argumentation.
i'm gonna explain it in a slightly different way:

assume the world is flat and the sun is like 5000km above the world, circling around.
try to imagine a small world like that infront of yourself on a table, and try to think of the angle of you, staying on the world, and the sun in 5000km height.
if the sun straight over you, it's certainly a 90 degree angle.
if the sun is very far away, like the on the other side of the world, it should be a 15-20 degree angle.
in every situation in every day, the angle would always be between such numbers, 15 - 90 degree.
but i am pretty sure that everyone has seen the sun in lower angles to the world. when the sun goes down it is at like 2 or 3 degree and then "goes away" or "goes under". no matter in which of those cases you believe, it's not possible to achieve a 3 degree angle in a flat world. therefore the assumption is disproved.

Actually no Flat Earther that i know would say something so silly, you've just assumed how they think with your thoughts, so then thinking you can debunk it.

Classic sirawmanning although without the trolling, points for that then.

Ive explained it , you refuse to understand it, refuse to point out where your understanding fails and refuse to watch any videos, your not here to debate, just to troll.


I do understand it, and I do point out the flaws in your videos by asking questions you cannot answer.

As it stands, you've offered no explanation that explicitly shows why the sun sometimes appears to dip below the horizon. Instead, each time I bring this up, you start insisting that I somehow lack some understanding about perspectives. A dodge doesn't get more transparent than that.

NOBODY has proved that there is an earth. So how can anyone say it's flat then?
Prove that Card? Or are you just going to tell me because NASA said so?

I hope there's no slope on the lake I'll just run into it and it will stop me from skating.

Did no one else catch that?

Wow, you are really grasping now, aren't you. Yes, the entire event is a sham, all these people show up but are not allowed to look through the telescopes. I mean if I was a world government trying to keep people in the dark, that's exactly what I would do. I would schedule public events inviting people to look at the stars, and then not let them look at the stars when they all come. Nobody will ever suspect anything or ask any questions. Holy crap, could you be any more desperate?

I went to one of these events and I looked through several telescopes. You may now proceed to call me a government shill and a NASA agent.


What was your main question? Do we live in a curved sheet of paper? No, we do not live on a curved sheet of paper. That was just a picture of a curved plane. The existence of such a thing does not mean we live on it. It was also a black and white picture, but that does not mean we live in a black and white world. A few pages ago I posted a picture of a plastic cup with a spoon in it. Before you ask, we do not live in a plastic cup either.

You failed to answer the questions here

If you think you understand 3d perspect - explains why the sun look like it sets on a flat Earth?

I think I might be able to handle a .000001 degree slope

Is this really one of your arguments now?


Lol at you now trying to get leevee to explain your model as well

Wow, I am the one trolling? So by your logic, anything you fail to answer is trolling?
Wake up.. You've been told lies all your life like who are the ones that told you there is a world?
I bet it's the same ones who say that the earth is flat. So why would you trust them?
