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.

Dilly Gill - Goodbye to the ISS. One more trick exposed - Flat Earth


Dear Dilly Gill,

Fact check = You FAIL
In your video you claim that the ISS astronauts are suspended by cables and use "sleight of hand" trickery to appear in a weightless state.  However, at no time are cables or cable related creases/bends seen in any of the astronaut's clothes.  

You presented zero evidence to back up your assertions.  

It's all imaginative speculation and purposeful deceit on your part.

Why are you grasping at straws, and so desperate to support your flat Earth claim?  Are you driven by religion, anti-establishment sentiments, or just plain old fashion distrust?

Readers, the original NASA Johnson video can be found here.  Watch the entire and video and judge for yourself.

Conclusion - get a life and stop your conspiracy nonsense.

Music: Between the Rings by Stellardrone Filmed with an 8" Meade LX200 Classic with a 2x barlow (f/20) and Canon T5i. Tracked using SatTraker. The video frames were then stabilized and stacked in a 5 frame rolling average using a custom Python script which also added the time code, altitude, azimuth and range numbers to the video based on the orbital elements of the space station.

One of the Best Pictures Ever Taken of ISS from the Ground. You Can Even See the Canadarm2, by Nancy Atkinson of universetoday.com

(https://www.universetoday.com/146830/one-of-the-best-pictures-ever-taken-of-iss-from-the-ground-you-can-even-see-the-canadarm2/)


Excerpt:

"Astrophotographer Thierry Legault is renowned for his amazing shots of spacecraft transiting the Sun. He’s now outdone even himself.

On June 24 and 25, 2020, Legault captured the International Space Station passing in front of the Sun with such clarity, even the station’s robotic arm, the Canadarm2, is clearly visible. The docked SpaceX Dragon capsule can also be seen. These latest masterpieces from Legault are the most detailed ISS images captured from Earth yet.

Legault credited some new equipment for the increased clarity.

“My new CFF apochromatic triplet 8″ refractor I bought 2 weeks before the shots seems to be optically very good,” he told Universe Today via email. “Focusing is critical and is always a challenge, especially nowadays because there are no sunspots. I had to focus on the solar limb, and fortunately, at the distance of the ISS, there’s no difference in focusing between the Sun and the ISS.”

Legault said the camera he uses, and Olympus E M-1 II, has the fastest continuous shooting: 60 frames per second in 20 Mpix Raw mode. But he has less than a second to capture the space station’s pass in front of the Sun....."

No mention by Dilly Gill of this astronaut clearly in zero gravity from the same video...   He has no strings attached.

All in zero gravity.  No evidence of strings / cables attached...
