Get in an Airplane and observe the curvature.

It is so cool how you have to look DOWN further and further to see the horizon at all. Looking straight out the window at 35,000 feet you see nothing but "outer-space" from either side of the plane.


Miles squared X 8 inches
one foot = .000189394 miles
1 mile 5.33 ft. .12626 mile
6 miles 24 ft.
10 miles 66.666 ft. .2626 miles
100 miles 6,666.66 ft. 1.626 miles
1000 miles 666,666 ft. 12.2625 miles

So on a view of a horizon that stretches dozens of miles in each direction we easily see the Earth curving away and down dozens of feet on both sides.


That's why I say we live on a ball!

I've been in one.

Looks flat as far as I can see and the horizon comes up to eye level, no matter how high up you are.

If the earth's surface was curving away then the horizon would be much lower, not at eye level.

It is a flattie LIE that the horizon rises to eye level. You can test it yourself but I bet you won't. You could get a theolodite, or a theolodite app, or build your own like this guy



But I bet you won't even try.

lmao
