Did this happen for the last solar eclipse? It was less than 10 years ago if I recall correctly???
Yes. People traveled, there was traffic, lots of folks took pictures, there was social media "hype". People have very short memories.

Question for Liberator (he won't answer):
How many miles to the moon from Earth?

It wasn't my question, but I know it would be at least seven if the moon were real.

Speed of light? Diameter of the flat sphere? Surely there's a scientific number for all.

How high can your typical cow jump? Because the cow jumped over the moon... so it can be any higher up than that, can it?
And if we assume the cow jumped from the very tip top of Mt. Everest (That is real, isn't it?), then that's roughly 5 1/2 miles, so the moon would be what... 5 1/2 miles and 4 feet from earth?
Yeah... that started to get away from me a bit.

I don't get all of the blowup on it either. Saw on tic Tok some dude was expecting the rapture.

Like 27 or thereabouts.

I know this one. Spheres aren't real.

Well, see......what you found there was an idiot. Most people just want to see a cool event happen, maybe get some icecream after.

Everyone knows a cow can't to the top of Everest these days because all the garbage and shite assholes have left piled around. It is sad.

Believe it or not, this subject matter isn't really about "GOTCHAs".
All I've been asking for is a bit of examination of the claims by "The Science". Can it main principles -- a Spinning Ball, Heliocentric "Science" -- be "proven"? If so, how and when did it become unquestionable hardened dogma?
Without referring to books that tell you what to think, how to think, and the "facts", I'm asking you: "HOW DO YOU KNOW"?
We are told:
1) The Earth spins in orbit at 1000 mph at the equator; 750 mph at 45 Degrees Latitude. It travels 66,600 mph around the Sun.
(How do we know for sure? IS it true?)
2) How do you "know" for sure that this earth is NOT an extended "Flat" plane?
3)How do we know for sure that the Sun and Moon do not orbit as the Earth's satellites in concentric circles around a flat plane earth?
4) How do you "know" the distances to the Stars and Planets? Their exact size and chemical composition?
quote:
I suppose you think physics and gravity are made up, don't you?
Some physics ARE indeed "made up", purely supposition, assumption, presumption, never "proven", merely theory (see: "Theoretical Science"). Einstein, Newton and Copernicus ALL admitted their "laws" could never be proven. You're never going to read about this in "Science" or "History" books. (and this is my over-arching point.)
Oh. And of course if there's no "Spinning Ball", there can be no actual operational "Coriolis Effect".

But you could put the cow up in a balloon and let the earth rotate at what... 1,000 mile per hour... underneath the balloon until the balloon is over Mt. Everest. That could work, right?

Yup. (according to the Ball-Earth spinning 1000 mph "science" -- hey, it's your system, not mine.)

I like them. I think seeing a comet is better. On one hand you wish you witnessed more things like that and on the other hand what are the consequences.

If I go to Memphis International Airport and take off in a plane with enough fuel and start traveling east in a straight line, I will eventually end up back in Memphis, right? If the earth isn't ROUND, but is rather a flat plane, how is that possible? According to you, the plane would reach the "end of the earth" and.... fly into a wall?
