Jack Esin - Flat Earth - There are no Satellites in Space - This man has the Proof
Dear Jack Esin,
Fact check = You’re full of hog wash...
I watched the entire video and heard nothing about satellites.
The man that you featured may have been an army surveyor during the Vietnam War era. No GPS back then.
Today the army uses GPS devices for those same activities:
a) Fully Militarized Survey System Using a Military GPS Receiver Supplemented by Multi-GNSS Systems with Assured PNT for ALL Precise Modes of Operation
(http://www.tag.com/gps-s/)
b) Geodimeter® Automated Integrated Survey Instrument (AISI) 444
This is a line-of-sight system and was acquired with global positioning system (GPS) gear to be used as a stand-alone system or together.
(http://www.wood.army.mil/engrmag/PDFs%20for%20Jul-Sept%2006/Johnson.pdf)
c) and several hand held GPS devices are in use.
Fact check = You FAIL
Your guest talked about 82C, which is only an army job description for anyone who wants to be a surveyor.
Today that description (13T) also requires weather forecasting and measurements.
So what...
A job description proves nothing.
The "strap down" induction compass transmitter was patented in 1976.
Very old technology that is no longer used. Why was this even mentioned in the video?
Conclusion:
Your video proves nothing about satellites.
Today the US army uses the latest GPS surveying equipment.

The Geo Satellites are eclipsing again - Will Flat Earthers make observations or excuses?, by Wolfie6020
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMTyYgKHL7c
This is the third Equinox where I have filmed the satellites eclipsing.
This is due to the proximity of the Sun to the Celestial Equator, casting the Earth's shadow across the line of Geostationary Satellites.
The satellites in this video are
Chinasat 16
Chinasat 10
JCSAT 15 BSAT 3C
BSAT 3A
BSAT 3B
BSAT 4A
BSAT 4B
A detailed explanation is in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1o9Z...

Update: December 16, 2021
Using land based observations of two geocentric satellites, from two different locations, the Radius of the Earth is correctly determined. The R proof with satellites.
Debunk by WheresWally
WheresWally Measures The Earths Radius - It was Super Easy, Barely An Inconvenience - 3 BTC PLZ, by WheresWally
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1EOR-J9nGI
So now will DIRTH admit defeat and award WheresWally the three Bit Coins fpr proving r (radius of the Earth)?
Seems DITRH is out of ideas so by default he has validated the proof of R. All the other prerequisites have been meet too.
The Original video submitted to DITRH
WheresWally And Wolfie6020 Measure "R" Twice, I Can Has 3 DITRH Bitcoins Now Plz

Why do flat-eathers have such a hard time believing the International Space Station (ISS) is real when they can literally buy a telescope and see fo themselves?
https://www.quora.com/Why-do-flat-earthers-have-such-a-hard-time-believing-the-ISS-is-real-when-they-can-literally-buy-a-telescope-and-see-for-themselves
That's why there are thousands of flat-earth videos on YouTube where they:
- Claim video of activities aboard the ISS are faked in high altitude aircraft doing a parabolic maneuver
- Make fun of "astro-NOTS"
- Insult NASA as liars
- Claim all videos of the Earth from space are Hollywood style CGI fakes
- Assert that the ISSTracker ~ Real-Time Location Tracking of the International Space Station software is actually tracking a high altitude drone
Does this look like a drone?

From the Wikipedia page about him: Ralf Vandebergh - Wikipedia
"The image shows not only the ISS with very special lighting angle but also it shows activity around the ISS which is often the case. You see the Japanese Cargo Ship HTV-1 in its demonstration flight shortly before docking and just a few hundred meters below the ISS."
Ralf Vandebergh (born 1976) is a Dutch astronomer, professional photographer and veteran satellite spotter from Nijswiller (nl). He is known for photographing the Sun, Moon, planets, satellites, NASA Space Shuttles, and the International Space Station from Earth using a telescope-mounted camera. His work is widely published in the media.
