Flat Earth International Conference (USA) 2018 - Update. The final tally is now in.
The speakers included 23 creationists and 0 scientists
Creationist = a person who believes that the universe and living organisms originate from specific acts of divine creation, as in the biblical account.
Scientist = a person who is studying or has expert knowledge of one or more of the natural or physical sciences.
Make no mistake. There is nothing wrong with science or the evidence that proves the Earth is a globe, spinning on axis, and in orbit around the Sun.
Flat Earth is primarily a Christian biblical literalist attempt to change public opinion, in favor of the Bible and against science. This has been going on since the time of Galileo.

YouTube celebrity Logan Paul has now joined the Flat Earth craze. There seems to be no measure of how far flat Earth lunacy has spread.
- - -
During the following interview with Logan Paul, it's easy to get the impression that Logan has no clue or understanding of science, and why flat Earth talking points "allegedly" disprove a globe. He just keeps saying that "The Earth is Flat" as if it's an established, which most certainly IS NOT.
Logan Paul Trolled Flat Earth Conference! Punked at FEIC 2018!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cn82RbJbNU
When asked about flat Earth evidence or proof, he just says "Oh. Now you're getting technical. That's not really our specialty."
- - -
News note:
After Logan Paul made his appearance Mark Sargent left the conference. Mark immediately went up to his room, packed his bags, and flew back home. He did not give the conference sessions that he was schedule for.
Mark Sargent does not like Logan Paul for many reasons.

New twist to the flat Earth fantasy, as claimed by (Sleeping Warrior) Anthony Riley
Anthony Riley now says that all photos and all videos and all surveying instruments show that the Earth is spherical. But the Earth is not spherical, it's just that every optical device, including the human eye, distorts what we see to make it that way.
So then the human eye, every camera, and every theodolite - distorts the flat Earth by just the right amount to make it look spherical? Bollocks.

Expect changes to YouTube content and other social media platforms
Legislation: Directive Of The European Parliament And Of The Council On Copyright In The Digital Single Market
On September 12, 2018, the European Union passed Article 13, a controversial Copyright Directive which will affect how companies and people in Europe use and profit from the internet.
Article 13 states, "online content sharing service providers and right holders shall cooperate in good faith in order to ensure that unauthorized protected works or other subject matter are not available on their services."
There are still negotiations and another vote before each EU Country will even work out how to implement these laws.
(https://9to5google.com/2018/11/13/youtube-article-13-eu-copyright/)
Excerpt:
The EU’s copyright directive, Article 13 has come under scrutiny yet again from national and international media. Now an official response from YouTube was recently published on the official YouTube Creator Blog. In the post, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki pushed back against these proposed European copyright legislation changes.
As we all know, YouTube is the biggest video hosting service on the planet, with more than 400 hours of video content uploaded every minute to the website. These proposed copyright regulation changes present a major problem for YouTube, as the company would be liable to determine who the original right holders are and then pay each accordingly.
This is actually the second post from Wojcicki on the EU Article 13 issue, although this is the first time she has admitted that YouTube lacks the technical and monetary capabilities to truly police these proposed copyright restrictions by the European Union...
Article 13 = would in practice force online platforms that host significant amounts of user-uploaded works to filter all content for copyrighted materials and prevent the upload of those works unless a license has been agreed to. If the platforms don’t do this, they would be liable for copyright infringements of their users.
Article 11 = dubbed "the link tax," would require search engines and other sites to pay the original copyright holder for use of their material.

Bob Knodel (Globebuster) caught lying about his aviation credentials (uncovered by Wolfie6020)
Back in April 2018 Bob was quoted (see below) as being a "commercial/instrument/MEL licensed pilot."
But here at the official FAA site, Robert Knodel is listed as only holding a certificate as a Private Pilot, and his medical class = Third, was issued in 1978. Wolfie6020 points out that a commercial pilot needs to have a medical class rating of 1 or 2.
=> proof that Bob Knodel is not, or has ever been, a commercial pilot (as he had claimed). He is only an amateur private pilot with a single engine rating. The last time he did a medical was 40-years ago.

YouTube "Flat Out" channel has accepted that Wolfie6020 met the challenge requirements and should be awarded the $100,000.
But Flat Out Hero, who issued the challenge, has moved the goal posts once again. Now Flat Out Hero wants to be taken on the flight (not the original requirement to win).
Flat Out Hero shows his dishonesty and lack of personal integrity to the world.

Looking for Life on a Flat Earth, by Alan Burdick, The New Yorker
Excerpt:
I encountered Robbie Davidson, the organizer of the conference, in a corridor outside the ballroom. Davidson is the director and sole employee of Kryptoz Media, a company based in Edmonton, Canada. He is tall and sharp-featured, and when he speaks his sentences spill into one another. He told me that he was turned on to the flat-Earth scene in 2015; before that, Kryptoz was marketing cryptocurrencies to everyday consumers. He described the modern flat-Earth community as a confluence of three strains of thought. “There’s the conspiratorial,” he said. “It’s like, ‘That’s kind of weird with the moon landing. Maybe I’ll look into it. What else could they be lying about?’ ” The second is “the scientific-minded,” people who “just want to go out and do the experiments.” The third, Davidson said, “is the spiritual—people that want to say, ‘Wait a minute, what would happen if I took the Bible literally?’ ” In style and substance, the flat-Earth movement is a close cousin of creationism. At the end of the conference, Davidson would be screening his new documentary, “Scientism Exposed 2,” which dismisses dinosaurs, evolution, gravitational waves, and a spherical Earth as part of a broad agenda “to hide the true creator of Creation,” according to the trailer.

Astronaut Richard Garriott debates flat earther Andrew Lankes (aka Friend of Yahway) on 93.7 KLBJ FM
At first Andrew Lankes was surprised and terrified that sitting across from him in the radio studio was a former astronaut. Then as time progressed he felt more at ease and started throwing the standard flat Earth talking points at Richard Garriott. Richard Garriott addressed each item from the standpoint of rationality and scientific evidence. But in the end that failed to change the mind of Andrew Lankes.
Richard Garriott spent time on the ISS (International Space Station) and told Andrew point blank that he personally witnessed the Earth being a globe. Yet Andrew would not believe it, accusing the astronaut of being part of THE conspiracy.
So ladies and gentlemen. Here we have it. A prime example (Andrew Lankes) of human thought/emotional intransigence in the face of logic, reality and facts.
But at the end of the interview, we find out that Andrew's tenacious position is driven by his Christian belief in a Creator....

Flat Earthers (or “biblical Earthers,” as some distinguish themselves as, are a new subculture of American fundamentalist Christianity. It’s a combination of anti-government conspiracy theories (Nasa’s space program is a complete lie) with biblical literalism (the Earth is the flat, center of the universe, with heaven above the sky and hell below the ground).

Nathan Oakley’s new “angle of attack” explanation, debunked and shot down by fellow colleague Ranty Flat Earth
Rather than acknowledging that distant objects disappear from the bottom-up due to blockage by Earth curvature (like the bottom of boats going over the horizon until totally gone), he claims that the “angle” of the observer causes that effect. But according to 10th grade Euclidian Geometry, that is just nonsense.
Disappearing From Bottom Up on Flat Plane - Debunked, because his experimental plane is not flat as claimed.
[The camera and book are both not on the same floor. The book is in another room where the flooring is lower.]
After watching his video we wonder if he is just willfully ignorant, or knowingly deceitful.
-
But here now we see the deception. The book is actually in a different room, and the floor there is not level with the floor the camera is on.
-
- - -
Here now is Ranty Flat Earth (Shane Cook) proving Nathan Oakley to be wrong. The "angle of attack" argument is bollocks.
Mr. Ranty at the track...

Thanks Ranty Flat Earth for proving Nathan to be wrong!

Flat Earth folks are busy learning Photoshop
Celebrate Truth (Robbie Davidson) is passing off Photoshop pictures (where the banner heading was changed to "Earth is Flat") as truth. But when Robbie refers to TRUTH, he is only talking about what is in the Bible.
He dismisses science and reality. Not good.

What motivates people to create and/or accept conspiracy theories?
According to:
Gail Saltz, M.D.
Clinical associate professor of psychology
at the New York Presbyterian Hospital
“They are mostly anti-authoritarian people
They go against authority figures
They’re often insecure people
Often have lower self esteem
… and they are often made afraid by the things that make all of us afraid,
but their way of dealing with that psychically as a defense mechanism is to try
to come up with something that makes scary things make sense.
Fake news is just the latest iteration of conspiracy theory”

Iru Landucci – ArFlat Balloon on October 6, 2018 was successfully launched. But during the ascent communication with the balloon was lost at an altitude of 20-km. Now the camera payload has been reported to be found, but a REWARD is demanded for its return.
Update November 13, 2018
Continued rain and cold weather at the La Pampa (Argentina) expected payload landing site has caused suspension of the search.
All cameras and recorded video are for now considered lost.

ARFLAT OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUÉ v1.0
ESTIMATED VERY GOOD DAYS / AFTERNOONS / NIGHTS DEPENDING ON THE PLACE WHERE THEY ARE!
As is public knowledge we have launched the ArFLAT v1.0 with a total success, a spectacular day from La Pampa, Argentina, and with all the weather in our favor.
We inform you all by this means. again, our TOTAL thanks, given that without their collaboration, this mission could not have been carried out.
In the coming days we will be reporting the exact date we will give in a live YouTube through the channel "Nur for All", the information of what happened, and will be available first for you all the images and videos of the project, launch and Recovery.
Minutes of what happened in launch and recovery: On Saturday at 10.30 hs (local Argentina) we launched, with all the previous preparation, from La Pampa, the balloon with different loads (our main load, another load with live camera, the tracker and a load of safety detachment emergency) which was sent to the air with total success and monitored with live video up to 3 thousand meters of altitude and 70 km of radius approx.) and tracked continuously up to 20 thousand meters of altitude AGL, where suddenly at 11: 23 hs (local time Argentina) we have lost total communication with it.
At the same time our logistics team was at the time of the launch 150 km away near the area of probable fall according to the predictions of the wind for that day.
Given the unexpected event of total loss of communication, and not being able to locate it, the search and rescue procedure was started, taking us all the rest of Saturday from noon (approximate time of fall and touch the ground (13.10-13.30 hs) until it got dark.
When not being able to locate it physically with all the rescue logistics and not having information of the tracker, we only locate by the predictions of probable zone of fall, that is extensive and of very difficult access as you will see in the videos and images that we are going to supply them .
On Saturday, part of the logistics team and collaborators undertook the return home to Buenos Aires, and a small group stayed overnight and returning on Sunday to continue the search. On Sunday several fields were surveyed, entering them asking for authorization from their owners, traveling with drone from the view from the air on the vast mountains.
We reached the night on Sunday, and return to our homes unable to even recover the load.
It is understood that the help and logistics in the place was arduous, and each of the collaborators had their obligations to return to Buenos Aires.
Given this, a search and rescue committee was set up to return to the area, and continue with the survey until finding the fallen load or what is found of it. That is why internally a collaboration of money has been started in order to face the logistics expenses.
It is not enough to tell you that we will send you the details of all the expenses for the project, where it is explicit that the money contributed by you is spent.
From our analysis, the biggest cost was facing the logistics move in terms of the fuel to move and the helium that consumed the balloon, using almost 8m3 of it (at usd 65 x m3), and we must continue contributing on our behalf to be able to conclude the move, since the proceeds did not cover everything.
Again we communicate our total gratitude, the working group is currently collecting all the photos and documentation of the project to be able to supply them. Keeping in touch to communicate the day and time of the live broadcast on the channel Nur for All, we greet you affectionately !!! and we go for more!!! GRUPO ARFLAT

Notice that for the camera lens shown below, the "field of view" is at best 90-degress. It is severaly limited by the packaging material.
To photograph small values of Earth curvature, a 180-degree panoramic view is necessary. Anything less than that will be disqualified by our staff - since it it not wide enough to capture whatever curvature is present at the location.
[No fisheye; need a 24-35 mm focal length, genuine wide angle lens]
Therefore the experiment was rigged (knowingly or unknowing due to ignorance) to show only a flat horizon, and not what truly could be seen.
Things you should know:
In photography, a rectilinear lens is a photographic lens that yields images where straight features, such as the walls of buildings, appear with straight lines, as opposed to being curved. In other words, it is a lens with little or no barrel or pincushion distortion. At particularly wide angles, however, the rectilinear perspective will cause objects to appear increasingly stretched and enlarged as they near the edge of the frame. These types of lenses are often used to create forced perspective effects.
A rectilinear lens has much less lateral visual amplitude. Considering their small 90-degree field of vision thru the box, that all but guarantees that ONLY A FLAT HORIZON will be on the photographs.
Instead, they should have used a high quality wide-angle lens with built in rectilinear correction.
Their payload does not have one.

CBS Sunday Morning – Segment on flat Earth (October 14, 2018)
Title = The Flat Earth movement: People who ignore science
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/the-flat-earth-movement-people-who-ignore-science/
As the title of this piece portrays, science is correct and true. There is nothing wrong with the science that supports the Earth as a globe, spinning on an axis, and in orbit around the Sun with our other planets.
The flat Earth debate is about people who do not believe in science, doubt authority and are suspect of what they can’t personally verify or understand.
Patricia Steere and others were interviewed.
Thomas Nichols (Professor, Harvard Extension School), was also interviewed and his video comments are listed here below.
Thomas says,
I do think something new is happening.
People have really become obsessed with the idea that if it’s not part of their direct experience it can’t be true.
People have lost faith in experts. We’ve developed a kind of reverse snobbery that says if you have a great deal of education, if you’re at a well know institution, by definition you must be a liar.
His Book – The Death of Expertise
Often times younger people will say well the internet is just a big library. That is wrong. The internet is a big dumpster. There is no guarantee that anything you find on it is true.”
The video interviewer says, “It’s more democratic. Isn’t that good?
Thomas replies, “No. When it comes to knowledge more democratic is not good. Absolutely not.
We don’t decide how fast things accelerate in a vacuum by voting on it.

Contrary to flat Earth denial, the distance to the Sun is well known (93-million miles). The transit of Venus expedition.
-
Over the millennia different techniques have been used to measure the Sun’s distance from the Earth (see chart above). In modern times that distance has been measured to greater and greater accuracy.
But the tale of the 1761 transit of Venus attempt, which started international scientific cooperation and was conducted during wartime, proved to be a heroic successful undertaking.
Here is the story as told by Sky & Telescope Magazine…
Transits of Venus in History: 1761
https://www.skyandtelescope.com/astronomy-news/observing-news/transits-of-venus-in-history-1761/
With the scale of the solar system at stake, and knowledge of an upcoming transit in 1761, astronomers did something they wouldn't normally have done: they actually tried to cooperate across borders. European powers such as Great Britain and France held colonies and trading posts all over the world, so astronomers were motivated to organize the first international scientific project in human history: sending expeditions of highly competent astronomers and support personnel to various locations around the world, equipped with telescopes, pendulum clocks, and other quality instrumentation. Astronomers could combine measurements from far-flung locations to determine the a.u.
But then a nasty little war happened to intervene. Known as the Seven Years' War (or the French and Indian War in the U.S.), Britain and her allies engaged in a bitter struggle with France and her allies for worldwide maritime supremacy. The first global war, it raged from 1756 to 1763. The British eventually gained the upper hand (taking possession of Canada in the process), but astronomers were among the losers. With warships roaming the oceans and bombarding coastal cities, transit expeditions became more expensive, complicated, and hazardous,
A case in point was a British expedition to Sumatra (an island in modern-day Indonesia) funded by the Royal Society and led by astronomer Charles Mason and surveyor Jeremiah Dixon (the two who would later become famous for marking the boundary between Pennsylvania and Maryland). Just 24 hours after departing from Portsmouth, their frigate, the HMS Seahorse, was attacked and seriously damaged in a battle with the more heavily armed French frigate L'Grand. Mason and Dixon hunkered down in the bowels of their ship and listened to their fellow crewmen scream in agony as they were cut down by artillery and musket fire. Overall, 11 British sailors died and 37 were wounded. After an hour of fierce combat, the Seahorse was forced to return to port (but not before giving chase to the fleeing L'Grand).
As any sane person can imagine, Mason and Dixon lacked enthusiasm for another trip. But threatened with prosecution and severe punishment if they didn't try again, Mason and Dixon set sail once their ship was repaired. This time they avoided contact with French ships. But as they were sailing southward in the Atlantic, they realized they had no chance of reaching Sumatra in time for the transit. So they showed up unannounced at the Dutch colony of Cape Town in modern-day South Africa. The Dutch were neutral in the war, and the colonial administrators were sympathetic to the scientific nature of the expedition. The team was permitted to disembark and set up their equipment. Mason and Dixon caught the second half of the transit, the only successful observation of the 1761 transit from the Southern Hemisphere.

Flat Earth biblical literalist goes into Walmart and starts defacing decorative globes...
Some globes are labeled "decorative" or "not for educational purposes" because the continents, oceans, and countries shown on them are not to true exact scale and/or proportion. It's not an endorsement that the Earth is not a globe.
While other globes are labeled "educational" since they are correctly sized.

2018 Physics Nobel prize won by Arthur Ashkin, Gérard Mourou and Donna Strickland
https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/oct/02/arthur-ashkin-gerard-mourou-and-donna-strickland-win-nobel-physics-prize
American, Frenchman and Canadian share 9m Swedish kronor (£770,000) prize for work in laser physics
Three scientists have been awarded the 2018 Nobel prize in physics for creating groundbreaking tools from beams of light.
The American physicist Arthur Ashkin, Gérard Mourou from France, and Donna Strickland in Canada will share the 9m Swedish kronor (£770,000) prize announced by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm on Tuesday. Strickland is the first female physics laureate for 55 years.
Ashkin, an affiliate of Bell Laboratories in New Jersey, wins half of the prize for his development of “optical tweezers”, a tractor beam-like technology that allows scientists to grab atoms, viruses and bacteria in finger-like laser-beams. The effect was demonstrated by the award committee by levitating a ping pong ball with a hairdryer.
Mourou at the École Polytechnique near Paris, and Strickland at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, each receive a quarter of the prize for work that paved the way for the shortest, most intense laser beams ever created. Their technique, named chirped pulse amplification, is now used in laser machining and enables doctors to perform millions of corrective laser eye surgeries every year.

The following sunset view is not possible on a flat Earth
Talk about perspective all you want, but the bottom line is that all objects above a plane always stay completely above the plane, no matter how far away that object may get.

Sunsets prove Earth is NOT FLAT, by Miles Davis
Flat Earth Sunset Claims & Explanations
1. The Sun does appear to get progressively smaller as it sets.
This is demonstrably untrue as you have seen in this video. Others have used solar filters to demonstrate that such claims are completely FALSE. Do not be taken in by footage in which the Sun is over exposed!
2. The angle at which objects are observed causes them to seem to disappear from the bottom up. The smaller the angle the greater the amount of the object appears hidden from view.
This video will address this claim directly and show that it is FALSE.
3. The atmosphere magnifies the Sun in such a way that the normal effect of angular size reduction due to distance is counteracted so the Sun always appears to be the same size even though it is moving away.
This claim is also FALSE and I present some evidence here which contradicts this claim.
There may be other claimed explanations for how the setting Sun is possible on a flat Earth. If so please feel free to post them in the comments & I will try to address them in future videos.

The Tactics of FECore
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz2zGUAhrF4
- - -
A question has arisen whether FECORE is in violation of their 501c3 tax-exempt status, since they require a purchased cash membership fee to gain access to their research documentation. Memberships are allowed but a membership fee is not a donation. As a non-profit should not their research and corresponding documentation be offered in good faith as free?
Also. FECORE readily denounces NASA for alleged imagery/news fakery and fraud. Images of the Earth from space that clearly show the Earth is a beautiful blue globe are always denounced as CGI fakery, as they claim it is part of a worldwide conspiracy with other governments to hide God.
They are portraying NASA as a Masonic organization intent on hiding God. As such, do they deserve to enjoy tax-free status from the very US government they constantly denounce?

FECORE put on the Flat Earth 2017 North Carolina conference before they were a legal corporation.
The following question refers to, will the Corporation have members as in a Board of Directors?

FECORE claims to be a 501c3 non-profit, but as of today (September 21, 2018) they are not registered as such with the IRS.
But they claimed in their incorporation application that they are already a 501c3.
http://www.stats.indiana.edu/nonprofit/inp.aspx
FECORE listed as a 501c3 by the SOS (Secretary of State Indiana) shown below, because they listed that on their Incorporation application.
But FECORE is not listed as a 501c3 with the IRS. See below that FECORE is not in the IRS official listing.

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) education in the United States ranks (38th in math) and (24th in science) in student achievement, out of 71 developed countries

K-12: The War on STEM, by Bruce Deitrick Price
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/09/k12_the_war_on_stem.html
Some excerpts:
"The U.S. President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology predicts that in the next decade, we will need approximately 1 million more STEM professionals than we will produce at our current rate." So the logical question must be, why is the current rate far below what is required? Our Education Establishment presides over this shortfall. Its ministers make it happen; at the very least, they let it happen…
Universities need to attract more students to STEM programs. But once these students have enrolled, another challenge begins to unfold: Only about 40% of students who enroll in STEM programs graduate with STEM degrees." That's usually because they don't have a proper grounding in math and science…
In science education, the first decade of the 21st century will be remembered for the dramatic reduction in the teaching of science in elementary schools across the U.S. as a result of national education policy…

The current concerted efforts to undermine science education…
A coalition of apologetics ministries and pseudoscience propaganda mills determined to spread misinformation across all public media including the classroom.
To cause confusion about and rejection of science in an effort that was accidentally publicly admittedly intended to promote religious fundamentalism instead, as if that were the default alternative or even qualified as an alternative at all.
It is dishonest empty unsupported speculation as if it were a matter of verifiable fact, yet that’s what all (flat Earth) proponents do because they get real science wrong.
They object to astronomy, cosmology, tectonics, geologic history, biochemistry, heliocentrism, and in some cases science as a whole (in principle and in practice).
Nowadays before a hypothesis can graduate to the level of theory it has to be effectively proven, at least in a colloquial sense, by demonstrating profound predictive and explanative power and by withstanding a substantial battery of critical analysis in peer review.
In the United States this is a cultural war issue. But when it’s faith verses fact, factual based reality always wins.
When you have no evidence there’s literally nothing to talk about. Science is only concerned with what is supported by evidence and whatever is not supported doesn’t warrant serious consideration.
Come back when you have something to show, then we’ll have something to consider.

Jason Laufenberg and Ronnie Harris (Awake Souls and The Limitless Channel) will only do the experiment using other people's money
Update: September 8, 2018. As expected, the experiment was cancelled.
"and to top it off ZERO flat earthers were interested in helping the test! "
-
Update: August 20, 2018.
When Robert Oberdove asked, "Why don't you Jason and Ronnie just put up $2,500 each and be done with the fund raising? You know you're not going to get $5,000 in donations. It's almost as if you want the fund raiser to fail so you have an excuse for not doing the experiment."
... they deleted that comment from public view.
PS - It would be nice if Jason and Ronnie were able to do this experiment, because their professional surveyor using a theodolite (a precision optical instrument for measuring angles between designated visible points in the horizontal and vertical planes) would inform then that over the total length of 3-miles - vis-a-vis the 4x4 posts - there is noticeable deviation from level => the Earth is curved.
PS - There are also fluid dynamic issues that they don't understand, which will invalidate their expected drip-tube water level anticipated results.
PS - The local county/government authorities would never grant them a permit to setup 4x4 posts and tubing in the sand - extending into the water on a public beach - where hundreds if not thousands of people would be swimming during Labor Day weekend. Such tubing poses a risk to swimmers for entanglement and possible drowning. If they just show up at the beach (with no permit) the cops will descend on them rather quickly for posing a risk to the swimming public.
PS - For the above reasons and others, the experiment will never be completed.

Kepler’s second law of orbital motion and Einstein’s General Relativity (space/time/gravity) still holds true for stars extremely close to our Milky Way Galaxy’s central Black Hole (mass about 4-million Suns)
-
Kepler’s laws of planetary motion
Kepler’s first law: The orbital paths of the planets are elliptical, with the Sun at one focus.
Kepler’s second law: An imaginary line connecting the Sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas of an ellipse in equal intervals of time. Thus, the speed of the planet increases as it nears the central mass and decreases as it recedes from the central mass.
Kepler’s second law can also be used to describe the motion of stars around black holes.
The study of the motion of the nearby stars can be used to determine the mass of the black hole.
A good example is the determination of the mass of the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Based on the motion of the star S2 we have determined that the mass of the black hole in 4,000,000 times the mass of the Sun.
Kepler’s third law: The square of the planet’s orbital period is proportional to the cube of its semi-major axis.

In the country of Chile (South America) the Large and Small Magellanic clouds are clearly visible in the night sky. How come we don’t see them from New York or London?
Simple, because the Earth is not flat…
The Magellanic Clouds (or Nubeculae Magellani) are two irregular dwarf galaxies visible in the Southern Celestial Hemisphere; they are members of the Local Group and are orbiting the Milky Way galaxy.
If the Earth were flat, all stars would be visible from anywhere. But that is not the case. The north star Polaris is not visible south of the Earth’s equator. The Magellanic Clouds are not visible from North America.
The star constellations that we see in the night sky are visible the way they are, only because the Earth is a rotating globe.

FECORE stumbles again. Their amateur non-scientist trilobites get WGS84 deadly wrong
If the WGS84 earth ellipsoidal data is wrong because the Earth is flat as they claim, then commercial airline flights all over the world would be - off course, not finding their intended airports to land on, and in cases when using auto-landing a crash would occur.
Note: Automatic landings probably account for less than 3% of all landings on commercial flights

What is the World Geodetic System?
https://gisgeography.com/wgs84-world-geodetic-system/
-
From the article "Landing Airplanes with GPS?," by Tony Murfin
Landing airplanes with GPS is not a new concept. People were demonstrating the feasibility back in the early 1990s. But landing transport airplanes in commercial airline service is something that’s only just getting to be a regular occurrence.
LAAS (also known as Ground-Based Augmentation System — GBAS) is a ground-based landing system which uses GPS to guide aircraft to a runway — there is a local ground installation with several antennas around the airfield, and a VHF radio uplink to approaching aircraft. It all works if the aircraft is also equipped with a VHF receiving radio and a LAAS-configured airborne GPS receiver. There’s also likely a Flight Management System (FMS) on the aircraft that enables navigation within today’s complex air-traffic-control systems. The LAAS system on the ground works high-integrity and provides precision GPS corrections to the aircraft GPS.
WAAS (also known as Satellite-Based Augmentation System — SBAS) also has parts which are ground based, in that there are a number of widely separated ground stations (hundreds of miles apart, across the whole country), each installed with a number of GPS receivers which, together with a ground data analysis system, assess the performance of the GPS constellation. A WAAS correction signal is then sent up to geostationary satellites which re-broadcast the correction signal to aircraft equipped with WAAS-configured GPS receivers flying within the geo signal footprint. The airborne receiver gets higher accuracy combined signals and an integrity message which regulates en-route and approach navigation.

Eric Dubay at IFERS announces “The 10,000 Dollar Baller Challenge,” which quickly turns into dishonesty and a display of ignorance
Eric declared…
“$10,000(TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS) CASH, WILL BE awarded to ANYONE who can provide ONE piece of FACTUAL and IRREFUTABLE evidence to support two things.
A). The CURVATURE of the alleged spinningballearth
B). The MOTION of the alleged spinning ball earth”
…yet when easy experiments were proposed that clearly demonstrate and prove those two criteria, the result was flat denial by the administrator to accept it as valid, followed by a BAN from the forum.
The challenge should really be renamed to “The 10,000 Dollar Baller Challenge to Convince ME that the Earth is a Globe.”
Because that's what it really is.
No matter how many proofs of Earth curvature and motion were presented, because THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND (or want to understand) how the laws of nature actually function, to them they just invalidate (even before doing the proposed experiment for themselves) the suggestions.
This is flat Earth hypocrisy at its height.

Simple experiment to prove Earth is a sphere, and it rotates
Greetings,
I am submitting the following experiment by JonahTheScientist (FlatEarthLunacy.com) as proof that the Earth rotates, and is spherical in shape. Please consider this to be an entry for "The 10,000 Dollar Baller Challenge"
As described in the article below, measure how much a standard 500-gram weight actually weighs, at various locations (north or south) on the Earth. The weight will change in accordance with the rotational centripetal force applied to it. At the North Pole it will weigh 500-grams. At the equator it will weight 498.2696-grams, because the centrifugal force created by the Earth's rotation tends to throw it off. That makes it a tiny bit lighter.
How much you weigh depends upon where you are on the Earth, because its a rotating sphere.

The Admin response:
MChranston
1) The amount things weigh at various places across the plane does not in any way provide irrefutable proof of Earth's curvature or motion.
2) The experiment needs to be something testable and demonstrable by everyone, so requiring people to travel to the North/South Pole or into "outer-space" to prove your point is not acceptable as point 3 stated: "Your experiment, test, or method must be replicable and the same result must be obtained by myself and others in order for your evidence to be considered."
- - -
Then MChranston's reply:
Greetings, If you believe that an object's weight cannot change by traveling north-south on a giant spinning sphere, you have no understanding of physics at all. Look up how centrifugal force operates.
The experiment presented is easy, testable and reproducible by anyone.
Just drive from Miami Florida to Detroit Michigan. Or drive anywhere in the world (north or south from your home) for at least 500-miles, for reliable results.
That is not asking anyone to go to the poles or into space.
You are not following the scientific method as you said you would - because you want to prohibit the experiment from ever being conducted.
For the scientific method, first the experiment is performed, and then the results are evaluated. Why you doing it backwards?
If you do not allow this experiment to go forward, the entire world will see that you are prejudging and manipulating this fake $10,000 challenge.
Anyone who has completed a high school science class, and there are million and millions and millions in the world who have, know about centrifugal force, and will laugh at you forever more.
Your understanding of physics is very deficient. You are incorrect. Go ask any high school science teacher about it.
Your $10,000 challenge is a fake and you are a fraud. kind regards, Michael

Then the ban from the forum:
Here are screen shots of MChranston's correspondence:
Summary:
Eric Dubay and the flat Earth folks at IFERS have no understanding of physics and how our real universe functions. Just because they can't (or don't want to) figure it out, they deny deny and deny. That is the brainlessness that human consciousness has taken.

The idea that existence is human centric has caused the maximum amount of damage
Anthropocentrism is the belief that human beings are the most significant entity of the universe. This is a basic belief embedded in many Western religions and philosophies.
Many ethicists find the roots of anthropocentrism in the Creation story told in the book of Genesis in the Judeo-Christian Bible, in which humans are created in the image of God and are instructed to “subdue” Earth and to “have dominion” over all other living creatures.
my individuality
my family
my language
my religion
my tribe
my country
my Earth
my Sun
my solar system
my galaxy
my universe
=> leads to the flat Earth geocentric universe viewpoint
But looking at how limited the range of human sense perception really is, highlights that humans only perceive a tiny fraction of what is present in our environment. That is not a good recipe for human survival.

Flat Earth – the true story is religious emotional faith verses science and reality
Flat Earth Bible literalists pit their religious belief against science and objectively verifiable facts. For the vast majority of flat Earth advocates, that is what it’s ONLY about.
This is their market. A more miserable and uneducated population means more religion will work. Yes. Because they will promise you that somewhere else (heaven) there is a better place to live.
There is no grand conspiracy perpetrated by all the governments of the world. That fallacy is purposely voiced by flat Earth folks because if only ONE PICTURE of the globe Earth from space is deemed as true, that destroys the entire flat Earth charade.
In 1956 the founder of the Flat Earth Society, Samuel Shelton, stated that, “science is an abomination to God.”

Modern technology and physics takes the Cavendish Experiment to new heights of accuracy
The Cavendish experiment, performed in 1797–1798 by British scientist Henry Cavendish, was the first experiment to measure the force of gravity between masses in the laboratory and the first to yield accurate values for the gravitational constant.
The strength of gravity has been measured to new precision

Flat Earth trilobites – since Mars is just a light in the sky why has it now become so much brighter?
Why is Mars red while the other planets are not?
Please explain why this has happened according to your flat Earth model. OK?
Since around July 7, Mars has been brighter than Jupiter, which is normally the second-brightest planet and fourth-brightest object in the sky after the sun, moon and planet Venus. Mars now outshines Jupiter by some 1.8 times. It’ll remain brighter than Jupiter until around September 7th.
Remember Mars in 2003? That was the last time the red planet came exceptionally close to Earth. It was closer in 2003 than it had been since Mars' closest approach to Earth in 59,635 years (the year 57,617 B.C.).
In 2018, Mars isn’t quite as bright as it was in 2003.
The 2018 opposition of Mars isn’t an ordinary opposition, though. Astronomers call it a perihelic opposition.
Note: The magnitude scale is a logarithmic scale in which each integral step corresponds to a change of approximately 2.5 times in brightness.

If Mars is just a "light in the sky," why are there CRATERS on it's surface?
Got it?

Distance to the Moon - flat Earth con game - easily exposed by you and a friend
Flat Earth conspiracy advocates readily claim that both the Sun and Moon are very close to the Earth, say only about 3,000-miles up. A local Sun is necessary for their flat model (which fails against reality in every aspect) and their pseudo explanations (using magical made up physical laws) to simulate seasonal changes on the Earth.
However, for hundreds of years we have known that the Sun is about 93-millions miles away, and the Moon is about 239,900 miles away..
The first distance to be measured with any accuracy was that of the Moon. In the middle of the 2nd century BCE, Greek astronomer Hipparchus pioneered the use of a method known as parallax. The idea of parallax is simple: when objects are observed from two different angles, closer objects appear to shift more than do farther ones.
This is the simple experiment that you and a friend can replicate TODAY.
All you need is a friend who lives in another city/country than you. The greater the separation (in terms of distance) between the two of you, the better. That provides for a longer and more accurate parallax baseline. Take a picture of the Moon in the sky at the same time, using the same camera make & model (with same resolution, focus and zoom settings) so you create photos like the ones shown here below...
-
-
-
Than its just simple high school trigonometry to solve for distance...
Try it yourself. Discriminate between what is real and what is fiction - the fake arguments of flat Earth people pushing personal agendas to obfuscate the truth.
Parallax: distance
How far away is the Moon?

overthepoles2018 flight now appears to be a scam - lots of money has disappeared
Summary: August 31, 2018 - update to our investigation
Our current trail leads to J. Roberto Aldana (Florida, USA) and Nelson Osorio (ieadventures, Guatemala)
Roberto is the money collector...
Current site ieadventures.com is non-active...
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Web site information phone number is hosted by XO Florida Inc. That number is currently non-functional.
This is one reason why back in April 2018 FlatEarthLunacy recommended that no one trust overthepoles2018.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
So who raised money to buy tickets for this flight?
One confirmed ticket for exploringagain dot com, ticket obtained on or before April 18, 2018...
-
IPS - setup a GoFundMe account to raise money for tickets. But here in this deception, he setup the account as exploringagain dot com.
IPS wanted to sponsor these folks for the trip...
-
IPS was also trying to raise money for himself (on his web site flatearthnetwork)...
-
One confirmed ticket for YouTube channel GreaterSapien...
His wire transfer for ticket purchase...
And there could well be other folks who purchased tickets.
-
overthepoles2018 business event tickets purchased from XING...
GreaterSapien is working with the XING legal department to find out who opened that account, and therefore has the money. He has also pledged to refund, from his own pocket if necessary, the Kickstarter funds collected after finding out about this scam.
ExploringAgain has also offered to refund his ticket money, less the $1,700 of his own that he put in. He has also volunteered to cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
ExploringAgain recent statement...
Finding out who collected the money at XING is the next step - the key to identifying the perpetrators of this scam - which has hurt both flat Earth and Globe Earth supporters.
Regular updates to this story will be posted here:

Lunar Orbiter Image Recovery Project
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Orbiter_Image_Recovery_Project
Between 1966 and 1967 NASA sent five Lunar Orbiter spacecraft to the Moon. Images from these spacecraft were used by mission planners to select the Apollo landing sites on the moon. In the late 1960s, after the Apollo era, Lunar Orbiter analog tapes were placed in storage in Maryland. In the mid-1980s, they were transferred to JPL, under the care of Nancy Evans, co-founder of the NASA Planetary Data System (PDS). In the late 1980's Nancy and Mark Nelson from Caltech began a project to obtain surplus FR-900 tape drives, refurbish them, and digitize the analog data on the tapes. This project was partially successful in that they were able to obtain raw analog data but due to lack of funding they were unable to continue their efforts. Nancy Evans subsequently retired from JPL and Mark Nelson returned to private industry. They obtained the tape drives as government surplus hardware in an attempt to raise private funds for digitizing the lunar images. They were not able to get the funds and the drives sat in a barn in Sun Valley, CA for the next several decades. In 2007, Nancy Evans tried to find someone to take the drives. Dennis Wingo heard about this and contacted Keith Cowing. Wingo and Cowng subsequently obtained the drives and tapes and brought them up to NASA Ames Research Center. Below are image galleries for the five Lunar Orbiter missions, as well as a collection of other related images.

Flat Earth trilobites* still insisting that the Coriolis Effect is nonsense, but it definitely proves that the Earth rotates
Coriolis - an effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. On the earth, the effect tends to deflect moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern and is important in the formation of cyclonic weather systems.
-
In the northern hemisphere, note the counter-clockwise hurricane weather pattern rotation...
-
-
In the southern hemisphere, note the clockwise cyclone weather pattern rotation...
-
The current stationary flat Earth model does not explain the counter-clockwise or clockwise spin direction of severe storms at all.
-
Flat Earthers have the brains of a trilobite...
Trilobite, any member of a group of extinct fossil arthropods easily recognized by their distinctive three-lobed, three-segmented form. Trilobites, exclusively marine animals, first appeared at the beginning of the Cambrian Period, about 542 million years ago, when they dominated the seas.
-
To better understand what the Coriolis force is, and how/why it functions, watch this great video by George Hnatiuk

Airplanes and the Coriolis Effect, by BlueMarbleScience
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tw5xBjgWyk
"This is why we don't consider coriolis when we fly airplanes or helicopters."
Throw the ball and it travels in a straight line. But inside the spinning frame of reference it gets deflected to the right. That "apparent" force of deflection is the Coriolis.
For this trip...
The Coriolis force is only 2.2 pounds on the left side of the aircraft...
You can correct for this by banking the airplane 0.004 degrees.
That means raising the wing edge by only 0.17 inch.
So, since the Coriolis effect is so VERY VERY tiny, a correction is just ignored. It's so slight we don't take it into account. It makes no sense.
Instead, the flight path is adjusted as needed.

Jack Menendez (USA) – a prime example of why reason and facts are dismissed by flat Earthers
Why don’t facts convince some people? Because many make decisions based more on emotion than fact.
We respond more to social and tribal dynamics rather than facts.
When people are presented with facts that are contrary to their deepest held beliefs, they will not change their mind. Since our brain is constantly protecting our world view and sense of identity, contrary facts are perceived as a threat.
An inexorable person is hard-headed and cannot be convinced to change their mind, no matter what. That is the case for Jack Menendez.
Some of his claims...
-
-
-
Jack demanded evidence so the following was presented to him, after which he ignored all of it. He would not say that the evidence was true or false. Not willing to commit.
JonahTheScientist said,
Greetings Jack,
You mentioned many things in your email response, so I will address a few now (not in any specific order) and a few later.
Please answer every question (Q1, Q2 etc.)
- a. Your statement about NASA - "you can't deny the images and videos that have been proven to be fake"
My questions to you:
Q1 - what is the criteria by which they / you determined that a space photo is fake?
Q2 - who are the people that claim the images are fake?
I use photo forensic analysis to find out if a picture is pristine, or altered in any way.
Q3 - What technique do your use to pin-down your photo authenticity conclusion?
So now please look at the following images of the Earth from space, all taken before the advent of CGI technology in 1976, and tell me which photos are fake - and why.
OK?
- - - - -
b. Your statement - "gravity to this day is still just a theory. The laws of physics dictate that it's density & buoyancy"
Q4 - if that be true, then why do the following items (the 4 listed below) all fall at the same rate-speed of acceleration?
Q5 - Based on your statement about density/gravity, items of higher density should fall faster, but they don't. Why not?
Iron pipe = 7.8 grams/cm3
Lead pipe = 11.3 grams/cm3
Ice cube at 0 degrees Celsius = 0.92 grams/cm3
Wood log = 1.0 grams/cm3
The buoyancy of any object is determined by a) fluid density that the object is in, b) displaced volume, and the Earth's gravitation constant - 9.8 m/s2
So the buoyancy of all objects on the Earth depend upon the strength of gravity. No = no buoyancy = the object will just float.
Find here the math formula for computing buoyancy force
Here is a buoyancy force calculator - https://ncalculators.com/mechanical/buoyant-force-calculator.htm
Q6 - After reading the above definition and explanation about buoyancy, do you still stand by your assertion that gravity does not exist, and it's just density & buoyancy?
I look forward to reading to answers to questions 1 - 6.
kind regards,
- - - - -
Summary:
Jack claimed that images of the Earth from space are CGI / fake, yet he would not tell us what criteria he uses to make that determination.
He introduced religious symbolism
When told that a small telescope shows the moons of Jupiter in orbit around that planet, a direct proof that gravity exists, he countered that telescopes cannot be believed.
Jack asked to be proved wrong about his view of gravity, but yet when presented with proof he ignored it.
-
And at the end of the conversation, he sent the following parody...
Jack Menendez said,
Spell my last name right.
You represent scientism, which means science has evolved into a religion.
Scientists hate to be proven wrong.
Scientists are the enemy of electricity.
Belief is the enemy of knowledge.
Numbers are the ultimate revealing truth.
You can't hide numbers
You can't disguise numbers
Numbers is the universal language
Numbers are the ingredients of the formula that created our universe
Our universe is widespread & stretches out and about. Not up and out.
World's exist beyond Antarctica.
And you better get this one right.
My name means nothing to you.
You have no idea Who I am
Yet you continue to insult me
You continue to insult my intelligence
I've been around long before you were born young old man.
I gave you a chance
I give you a chance once more
I AM AN ANGEL
You might say, a white lighter.
Report me if you want.
They won't believe you...no one will
We're not human beings trying to create our human awakening
We're spiritual beings trying to understand our human awakening.
I'm slowly remembering who I am
I remember being able to fly
I remember being able to float at free will
I remember being an angel
Not that kind of angel
My spirit is conscientious energy
I'm slowly remembering who I am
I am a free spirit
I am royalty
And you have no idea who I am
Feel the chills running up and down your skin?
Do you know who ENKI is?
No, I am not ENKI
Know who I am

A new level of insanity within the flat Earth conspiracy world
- some claiming that oxygen is not a constituent of water
Pete and Peter are prime examples of how stupidity and no understanding of chemistry lead people to believe delusional and incorrect ideas.
In the field of psychology, the Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people of low ability have illusory superiority and mistakenly assess their cognitive ability as greater than it is. The cognitive bias of illusory superiority comes from the inability of low-ability people to recognize their lack of ability; without the self-awareness of metacognition, low-ability people cannot objectively evaluate their actual competence or incompetence.
You can do this simple experiment yourself to prove that water is composed of hydrogen and oxygen.
