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.

FECORE - January 9, 2018 update: doomed from the onset because of inadequate planning and lack of common sense, the Lake Balaton (in Hungary) flat Earth laser experiment is on the slippery slope to irrelevance


Dear Readers, 



Update: August 2019:

The truth finally comes out of Mike Cavanaugh validating all we have said in this and our other articles on the FECORE laser test.  

As Mike Cavanaugh finally explains in this August 2019 interview with Sly Sparkane, the goal of the laser test was to hit the distance target.  Nothing else.

Our note:  That does not prove the earth is flat.  The laser can be aimed up/down and left/right.  Point it above the horizon line any way you want just to get the laser light seen at the target location.
Aimed and traveling over the horizon the laser beam is refracted by the atmosphere and subject to other thermal distortions, before its ever widening beam (laser beam divergence) makes it to the distant target.
This only proved that the laser was bright enough to be seen from those distances.  Nothing else.

Sly Sparkane says,
“What was the ultimate goal of the test?  Was it to see the laser at the other end or was it to hit a target?”

Mike Cavanaugh says,
"to hit a target..."

Sly Sparkane says,
“and did you hit a target…”

Mike Cavanaugh says
“yes…”

Sly Sparkane says
“at 22 kilometers?”

Mike Cavanaugh says,
“at 20 and 26 or 27 or 29 now…”

The laser experiment has received its first postponement, from January now to February 14-28, 2018.

Normally scientific equipment enters Europe thru pre-approved channels; either involving a participating university or government consortium.  Unless there are special circumstances, it needs to be shipped to Europe by a freight forwarder with adequate documentation to pass customs.  There is also a customs fee to be paid.  This process often takes 1-4 months.

With regard to airline travel, it's questionable if the American TSA (Transportation Security Administration) would let them pack anything larger than a laser pen in their luggage, without additional screening.  Larger scientific instruments with lenses attract considerable attention.  

If Bob Knodel and Jaren Campanella and his crew of twenty people suddenly showed up at Lake Balaton and started setting up tripods, lasers and cameras - the local authorities will swoop down on them.  They could be accused of nefarious activities and end up in jail.  Such an activity needs to be pre-approved by the authorities and the local community, and arranged weeks ahead of time.  Lake Balaton is a vacation destination site.  Since it generates commerce they do not want activities (like this) that disrupt planned community winter events and celebrations for the visiting public.  

But FECORE will be saved by the non-compliance of the weather.  Based on historical records, the chance of having a frozen Lake Balaton in February 2018 is only 10%

The actual experiment laser deployment and measurement plan as currently outlined by them is untenable, and very unlikely to produce any results of value.

The only thing that will allow the FECORE incompetent crew to save face, is that Lake Balaton will not freeze over this February.

Local reports indicate that as of January 6th there is no ice on Lake Balaton, and it has not even started to freeze.

Historically the best chance for ice developing on Lake Balaton is in January...

Update: January 10, 2018:

Here they acknowledge that the experiment will probably not occur...

Ask Bob Knodel of YouTube channel Globebusters, why he is still advertising it full force.  It's obvious there will be no test.  So is it for the contribution money?

They pretend that the curvature of the Earth has never been measured.  But over the past 50-years thousands and thousands of land and satellite based photo has clearly shown that the Earth is a sphere.

It's not the worlds fault that FECORE will not acknowledge that. 

FECORE is located at the North Liberty Mennonite Church, North Liberty, Indiana

Who is board member Jeran Campanella?

We are monitoring the upcoming (Nov 25th) flat Earth laser test by jeranism - Jeran Campanella  

Update: November 30, 2017    
Comedy of errors and confusion lead to no useful results

Here is an onsite report of what happened at the Victoria Canal…

brygenon:

I was the globe-head there. In the video at Globebusters, Jeran shows an illustration with four panels. That may have been the plan, but in the field there were three: one right in front of the laser (which I think is useless), one 1.5 miles down-range with a 6-inch hole 17 feet above the water-line, and one 3 miles down-range, with height-lines drawn on it (I assume; couldn't see it). 

By the time I arrived the sun had set and the panel in front of the laser was up. Enrique got a volunteer, Steven, and they left to set up the down-range panels. I stayed at the laser location, as did Jeran and Daniel the camera-man. (Apologies if I have names wrong or misspelled.) 

The laser with beam-expander, and the telescope mount that carried it, did not work. Jeran first adjusted the beam-expander with the beam hitting the ground. When Enrique got the 1.5-mile panel up, Jeran aimed the beam using a remote for the telescope mount. Aiming was touchy: it would fail to move, then move way to much. When he got it aimed, Enrique reported by phone that the beam lit the entire panel. To further adjust the beam-expander, Jeran had to hand-manipulate it, throwing off the aim. 

Jeran switched to the back-up plan. At the 1.5-mile panel, Steven held a reasonably powerful flashlight. At the 3-mile distance, Enrique held a monster flashlight. Jeran had a long-zoom camera, 17 feet above water, pointed down-range toward Steven and Enrique. The three set up a conference call, and with Jeran directing repeated the following procedure about ten times: 

Steven shined his light toward the camera, through the hole in the 1.5 mile panel 17 feet above the waterline. Enrique held his light at 17 feet above water, which was about waist-high for him, and walked to his left so that its light would go around the middle panel. Jeran and I could see both lights in the camera's flip-out viewfinder. As well as Jeran could focus, the lights were sizable balls not dots, and they appeared to be at about the same height. Enrique, at 3 miles, would walk back to his right until his light was occluded by the 1.5-mile panel, centered as well as Jeran could estimate. Then Steven would turn off his light and remove it from the hole. The test was then whether we could see, in the viewfinder, Enrique's light through the hole in 1.5 mile panel, which would support a flat earth. If not, could we see it if he held it over his head, well over 17 feet above waterline, which would support a round earth. 

In about 10 tries, with the light held waist-high at 17 feet above water we never clearly saw it through the center panel hole. On one of the attempts, maybe the fourth of ten, we clearly saw it when Enrique lifted it over his head. On that one, Jeran asked him to raise it and lower it a few times, and it would appear when Enrique raised it and vanish when he lowered it. That was the "gasp" moment. Jeran said, "that's interesting." I noted it was the prediction for a round earth. When they repeated the whole procedure, it did not happen again. I suggested having Enrique move from side-to-side a bit when occluded by the panel, in case it was lateral alignment that was off. Jeran accepted the suggestion, but it made no observable difference light.

jeranism (Jeran Campanella), a former drug store manager with no science training, describes globe Earth realists as...

"If you continue to follow them you can expect further enslavement by an elite group of pedophiles, Satanists, inbreeds, Zionists, users pushing baby eating demons."

The following closed caption's are Jeran's own words...

jeranism (Jeran Campanella)
…he claimed that the Moon never showed up for the August 21, 2017 total solar eclipse
...since Jeran attended a Jesuit run Catholic High School in youth, other flat Earth proponents link him to the Jesuit-Science conspiracy that has fooled everyone into believing that the Earth is a globe.
...makes fun of NASA and claims they never sent men to the moon.
...a prime example of someone who has zero positive proof that the Earth is flat, so spends all his time trying to twist established scientific verifiable fact to suite his own purpose.
...believes that mathematics is a faulty system
...actively solicits donations and is getting about $424 per month
