Just for SeaMonkey:  Flat Earth: Periscopes Prove Zero Curvature

I. With the periscope, you can measure the bearing to an object on land and determine the range
that object, to determine your position at sea.
II. Using the height of the object being viewed and the height of your periscope above the waterline,
draw a picture of your submarine and periscope, the viewed object, and the curve of the Earth.
III. Draw a line connecting the maximum height of both objects. Discuss how that line is a tangent
to the Earth.
IV. Draw the radius of the Earth to both objects and to the point where the tangent line touches the
Earth.
V. Calculate the missing side lengths of any right triangles, and determine how far you are from the
other object.
VI. Discuss how objects with different heights will be seen from different distances away

The highlighted portion in number 2 above is based on a false premise, and the earth being a flat round disc will also have a radius in regards to the highlighted portion in number 4 above.  In other-words, the highlighted text proves nothing.

Now i know why ALIENS would not communicate with us because WE ARE LIKE FUCKING COCKROACHES.. Do i get this right are we in this day and age discussing if the earth is a ball or a flat disc..PLEASE ...

Rainbows Prove a Mirrored Dome!

You can't make a rainbow indoors without a mirror.  Rainbows are formed naturally outdoors by the mirrored dome that is above us!

Actually, that periscopes can be used to sight
surface targets proves that the curvature of the
Earth is rather gentle.  The Earth is much larger
than most Flat Earthers are willing to admit.

Periscopes are not able to see over the horizon
and have limited capablity.  Submarines do have
Radar however and the ability to link to satellite
imaging.

Submarines are a real adventure.  Unforgettable.

As an American,it may be hard to see,due to loving your country--blind is love some times. But from an outsiders point of view,you can clearly see that something is drastically wrong with the 9/11 story.
Brad

Look at NASA, burning TAX money like its FREE, current needed human purpose ................. ??? ??? ??? ??? ?

Kids are born like below, seems to me a better goal to help first all the suffering on this planet!

Yep, its maybe round or flat, we should talk about the string puppets that are not helping out of there job fear, here chicken behind a nickname???

Try to feel again, than maybe you could be a teacher!

I've already shown how scientists are easily deceived in where the signals are coming from.  Radio waves, microwaves, etc. are all originating from earth and not deep space.
Don't you think it is possible to distinguish reflection from transmission?

BTW: Do you think the starlight is transmitted or reflected?

Gravock

FALSE again! You are really showing your ignorance and gullibility here. Clearly you have no idea how a real rainbow is produced in nature, nor how to make one yourself.

You have been refuted at every turn. Falsehoods like the above, mistaken interpretations, and simple ignorance of astronomy, aviation, geometry etc. are all you have. And it's hilarious to see you displaying your ignorance as if you are actually _proud_ of it !!!

Keep it up, you are hilarious!

Place a very strong but small source of light in the corner of a big room. Look in the opposite direction from the light source, and use an atomizer to spray a mist of uniform tiny water droplets in the air ahead of you. You will  see a real rainbow, at the characteristic rainbow angle, produced by the same mechanism that happens outside in the sunlight. The "mirrors" are the droplets of water themselves, just as when it happens in the sky.

Here are some more ways to "make a rainbow" indoors (actually, a spectrum projected onto a surface rather than a real rainbow that appears to be in the air), some of which use mirrors and others that do not.

Wrong again! Sketch the problem given in the passage, from your "flat earth" perspective and show this "radius in regards to the highlighted portion in number 4 above."  You're just full of utter nonsense. Every post you make increases your hilarity and reduces any credibility you may ever have had. Keep it up!

Heh... it's not a discussion at all. It's a _windup_. Look at all the false claims "gravityblock" has made trying to support his nonsensical belief. I don't even think that HE believes it any more, he's just copy-pasting from the internet postings of people too stupid to even do their own research and experimentation.

It is odd that from my geological location,i can watch the stars make an almost straight line trace over the period of night. One would think if i lived on a flat earth,the stars would at least show a trace of 1/2 a full circle during 12 hours of night.

Wrong!

The glass and windows are all slightly reflective. 

If the back side of the flask is painted with silver or aluminium paint, more of the light will be reflected and the rainbow should be brighter (see images below and the reference link).  This clearly shows a mirror is essential in making rainbows.  More light being reflected equals a better and brighter rainbow.  No light reflected equals no mirror and no rainbow.

Apparently the scientists did not try to distinguish reflection from transmission.  Their antennas were pointing to the "so-called" deep space, so they wrongly assumed the signals were being transmitted instead of being reflected.

The starlight is transmitted.  However, this doesn't mean the transmitted starlight is never reflected between a reflective surface on the earth and the mirror-like firmament dome that is above.  The stars are hanged/embedded into the firmament dome, and this mirror-like dome rotates around the stationary flat earth.  The luminaries are much closer than what has been taught by TPTB.
