Introduction

Dear Visitors,                                                                                                                                    April 21, 2017

Thank you for stopping at FlatEarthLunacy.com

As a scientist with college degree in Astronomy, minor in Physics and Mathematics, I was appalled to find folks telling outright falsities and presenting bad science to bolster suspicion of our known accepted reality - that the Earth is a beautiful blue globe.

This blog clearly shows scientific proofs that debunk everything that flat Earth proponents claim.  Here we also expose the comments those YouTube video channels delete, because they don't want you to see them.

The Earth is not flat.  That claim is a conspiracy theory perpetrated by ignorant people who have ulterior personal motives and agendas.

The Earth is a beautiful blue spheroid globe spinning on an axis 23.5° once each day, and orbiting the Sun every 365.25 days.

This Flat Earth pilot doesn't know how the Mars helicopter works, by Wolfie6020

Bob Knodel said,
“You have to have a much larger pitch than what is showing here. You guys can probably see my little hand here.  And this is a very very very mild pitch and this is almost ridiculous to be honest with you.  This should have something that should be two to three times this easily.

It’s just one of the first thing that I noticed when I looked at this thing is how ridiculously mild the pitch of this these propeller blades are.

Wolfie6020 said,
So it’s not ridiculous Bob.  That low amount of pitch is because it is a collective pitch helicopter sitting on the ground.  When it comes time to lift off the pitch on those blades will increase by two, three, and even four times to generate the lift required.  You can see very clearly the swashplate in this image too.  So how could you not know the basic operation of a coaxial helicopter?

Flying vehicles and quadcopter drones are a game changer to enhance the exploration of our planets and their moons.

Hopefully the Dragonfly mission to explore Saturn moon Titan's surface will occur as scheduled.

Excerpt:

The coolest helicopter on earth is actually nowhere near the Earth. It’s nestled in the belly of NASA’s Perseverance rover, set to land on Mars early next year. The little machine—dubbed ­Ingenuity—is equipped with two counter-­rotating blades that spin at 2,400 revolutions per minute. That’s a lot faster than earthly helicopter blades—and it has to be, since it takes a lot of muscle to get any purchase in Mars’ thin air. Ingenuity is a prototype, intended to find an easier way to get from place to place on Mars. It’s a job that rovers do slowly but a helicopter could do speedily and nimbly, climbing to elevations even the best Mars car could not reach. —Jeffrey Kluger

USA first in flight on Earth, Moon and now Mars.

Nasa successfully flies small helicopter on Mars, by Jonathan Amos BBC Science Correspondent (bbc.com)
Watch Ingenuity climb to 3m, hover and then set down

Excerpt:

The American space agency has successfully flown a small helicopter on Mars.

The drone, called Ingenuity, was airborne for less than a minute, but Nasa is celebrating what represents the first powered, controlled flight by an aircraft on another world.

Confirmation came via a satellite at Mars which relayed the chopper's data back to Earth.

The space agency is promising more adventurous flights in the days ahead.

Ingenuity will be commanded to fly higher and further as engineers seek to test the limits of the technology.

The rotorcraft was carried to Mars in the belly of Nasa's Perseverance Rover, which touched down in Jezero Crater on the Red Planet in February.

Trying To Fly At The Surface Pressure of Mars in a Vacuum Chamber, by The Action Lab
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5S-MLDiHt8A

In this video I try to see if I can achieve flight in my vacuum chamber at the pressure on the surface of Mars. I talk about Ingenuity and how it can fly on Mars.

"it's not a complete vacuum.  The the pressure is around 0.095 psi.  Now thats an extremely low pressure, but is enough to do something significant, like fly...
The gravity on Mars is about 1/3 of the Earths.  It is 3.721 m/sec^2
We need large blades, spinning very fast, in a light weight helicopter.
