A highly educated person can be susceptible to being scammed or deceived just as easily as a person with a lower education. Not really. Critical thinking is a very important aspect in sciences, engineering, etc.

You have been deceived into believing we live on a spinning ball. It is simply not true. Calling me a retard or idiot won't change the fact that the earth is flat and stationary. How is it a deception is there is ample proof? You’re the one making the statement without proof.

Dropping out of high school and linking to Youtube videos does not make you qualified in any regards.

Climb it and see for yourself.

Helium Balloons are much cheaper and much less effort

And much safer than a toolshedcrafted steam rocket! XD

Here is some food for thought;

If you have a straight line segment, and were to observe it from the perspective of looking at either end's point, that same line segment would appear to be a 1-d point.

If you have a 2D triangle, and were to observe it from a perspective looking at any of its sides it would appear to be a line segment.

If you have a 3 sided pyramid (most basic 3D polytope), and you observe it from the right perspective on any one of its sides, it would appear to be a 2D Triangle (most basic 2D polytope).

If you observer a 4D hyper-cube from a certain perspective it would appear to be a cube.

And so on, how we understand dimensions are completely reliant on our perspective, our point of view. Change it even slightly and the what's being observed changes too.
