[quote:Anonymous Coward 64698495:MV80MTk2NjIwXzc2MzI4ODg3XzY2MkJFQzVF] [quote:Remedial_Rebel:MV80MTk2NjIwXzc2MzI4NDcyXzk4QzNGRDdB] I could post for an easy 10 pages, hard evidence the earth is a spheroid from memory. But here's one anybody in the US or Europe can validate themselves. I have personally seen the International Space Station multiple times and so can anyone else with a high power set of binoculars or telescope. I have a zoom set of binoculars that have 20x-50x magnification. Get a pair and go to this website and pick a flyover time with a max height of 60 degrees or more. Check the weather for a clear sky and [b]SEE IT FOR YOURSELF[/b]. https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/home.cfm 50x is enough magnification to make out the basic fuselage and solar panels shape and it's not an airplane or helicopter. There is no weather balloon or blimp holding it up. Hundreds of amateur astronomers have photographed it also. Once you establish the ISS is there and orbiting the earth, FE is not possible. BTW, I have posted this more than 10 times and FEers just blow it off by ignoring the post or some BS response. Never even trying to see if it's true. [/quote] That ISS station is the best. I mean just think of all the maintenance regular airplanes need and man this space station requires pretty much nothing. All those valves and seals are eternal, it doesn't matter how extreme the heat versus how cold it just survives day after day, year after year. And I am thankful it survives up their for humanity sake. Check out this video. Pay attention to the electrical wiring. Only the finest electrician would organize the wiring in such a clean fashion. It inspires me so much!!! [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zd35u45Lxvk[/youtube] [/quote]

Iam ambivalent after a lot of research. Both sides of the debate have anomalies....
The flat earthers state that the UN Flag is the true map of earth and that Antarctic is actually a large ice wall encircling the land and sea.
There appear to be no credible evidence of anyone ever circling the globe by air from North and South route.
Firing a rocket to escape high enough to hit the "DOME" is not really feasible ....
HOWEVER
Flat earthers why not try and circumnavigate Antarctica..
The flat earth narrative is that Captain Cook attempted this but travelled for months and over 42000 miles and didnt come back to the starting point.
Replicating this voyage is doable and provable to end the debate one way or another
