t8: Anyone can land on Antarctica and not be stopped.
Absolutely 100% wrong. There have already been arrests among the flat earth community. Here’s a story about one of your own countrymen… https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/102307/norwegian-arrested-after-antarctic-voyage
This also from a very quick Google search…
Can you go to An…

t8: I will just say that rarely is Kapiti Island invisible, in fact I have never seen it hidden in my whole life.
Air must be way better there then. Because like I said, I’ve shot Superstition from 55 miles away, and often can’t see it from 10. So much haze and pollution here that the mountain looks like gray sky from only 10 miles away. Any…[Read more]

t8: I have always said that one possible explanation for so-called seeing over the the curve is that the math is not that accurate to begin with. Just because I don’t mention it all the time doesn’t mean I have changed my stance.
But now we don’t have to EVER hear about the math not being accurate again, right? Now you KNOW that the math IS th…[Read more]

Time for football playoffs. I’ll address the cars/boats thing (AGAIN) later. Cheers.

t8: Okay, so you are saying that 8” per mile squared is a valid way to measure distance even long distances.
Yes… up to about 400 miles – at which point the 8″/mi² starts to error on the side of the globe. But you can check it yourself. Right now, the world record of distance photography is 275 miles…

So using my chart above, let’s compa…[Read more]

t8: Usually you can see Kapiti Island as clear as day and even the South Island is clearly visible most days.
Does anyone want to take a guess why they vanished?
Take a guess? I’ve already pointed this out to you a dozen times! 😁 You have now filmed proof of what I was saying. See, when Nowicki shoots Chicago from 55 miles away, the ball…[Read more]

1. Completely disappears behind the curve at only 5 miles.
2. Able to see it from 15 miles.
3. To small to see when still on the viewer’s side of the curve.
Do you see how 1+2 will never equal 3 in this case?
mikeboll64 replied to the topic Mikeboll's belief in a flat world in the forum View Points 6 years, 2 months ago
t8, do you understand that we can zoom in and see cars/boats from over 15 miles away?
Do you understand that a boat would be 100 feet behind the curve (at a 5 ft viewer height) at 15 miles?
(Check any online earth curve calculator you want – including the Metabunk one from your buddy Mick West.)
Do you understand how this completely destroys…[Read more]

Here’s a photo version of the same…

The guy on t8’s video is misleading people on purpose. t8 also posted a young kid a while ago making the same baseless claims. The math is the math, based on a ball earth. You’ll see in the chart that, like the girl D4T just posted, the calculations are done both with the Pythagorean theorem (designed e…[Read more]

Ed: Hi Mike,
Here’s another video for you brother…
Thanks Ed. Makes you wonder WHY we would need them if we have 13,000 satellites in space that could do the same thing, right? Logical thinking. And I told you how they steer the balloon satellites that aren’t tethered to the earth, right? Those also have a tether hanging down, and they c…[Read more]

T8: Small boats go out of view… because they are too small…
You didn’t understand the cars footage? The point was that with today’s zoom cameras, you can physically see a car or boat from more than 15 miles away. And in your model, that boat would be over 100 feet below the curve at 15 miles. Even at 3 miles away, there is 6 feet of drop d…[Read more]

Thanks D4T! Yes, side by side comparisons of IR versus VS are cool. I’ve done plenty around Phoenix (zooming in on distant mountains, etc), but not of boats on the ocean. I had both cameras on San Diego, and filmed boats with each one, but didn’t do the side by side comparisons. 😬

Site froze up again. It was fine until I tried to link a YouTube video. That seems to be the key to the problems lately. It’s all good until you link the YouTube.

Now compare those cars to this boat I shot in San Diego. At less than 5 miles, that boat would be 100% behind the curve. But now we know that we can zoom that boat back in from as far as 15 miles away, right? Plus, I even show in the video that the horizon is actually BEHIND the boat. So no, disappearing due to size on THIS SIDE OF THE CURVE…[Read more]

Here’s the Google Earth to show the distance. I was in the blue circle, and the cars disappeared behind the mountain in the green circle. Red circle shows the distance.

Now compare those cars and trucks to this fishing boat I shot in San Diego. Don’t you think that boat has to be much father than 4 miles? Because it would be completely beh…[Read more]

100% zoom. Pretty hazy now, but can you still see that they are cars, and see the difference between cars and trucks? That’s at 15 miles, dude. Do you still think a boat would be too tiny to zoom into view at only 4 miles away? Because that’s your argument, right? The ones we can zoom back in are on the near side of the curve, ie: less than…[Read more]

90% zoom. Can you see them… and the difference between cars and semi trucks? Remember, 15 miles away.
