Why can't I prove the earth is round?

The concept of "vacuum" is easily misunderstood. Earth's gravity is attracting all molecules of earth's atmosphere toward the center of the earth resulting in atmospheric pressure (14.7 pounds of atmosphere per square
inch of surface area). In "space" there is not the circumstances of significant gravity, allowing gaseous molecules to free-float without causing perceptible pressure. Vacuum is not itself a force but a word created to indicate degrees of lack of pressure.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't mainstream science also suggest that the electromagnetic field of the earth has some impact here?

If the earth is flat, which side are we on and what's on the other side? And how thick is it...and what if anything exists on the edge?
The Answer is "Perception via Consciousness"...
For those that are able to understand this information as it answers the Question of Ops thread :
Panpsychism : Consciousness is a universal or primordial feature of all things [link to en.wikipedia.org] Holographic Universe

This blows my mind! This is why I ask questions! Thank you!

I don't believe anyone said planets or flights don't exist.

And I'm not an FEer as stated numerous times.

You confuse me with someone I'm not. Didn't you see my farcical answer to your question of the mercury transit? I said it was TWO MERCURIES. Which is clearly a joke. You need to lighten up buddy.

If you did, you might be willing to explore ideas and thoughts that exist outside your bias, whether or not those thoughts or ideas are truth. Doing so might help you discover some new truth your bias never would have allowed you to find.

Give it a shot.. explore an idea that contradicts your bias and use your imagination for a while. See what happens. It's fun.

Everyone please ignore Hydra. This is a disinfo troll. He/she is simulatneously trolling YouTube, and other conspiracy sites with canned answers, long quoting, ad hom and straw man fallacy.

If you believe the earth is a ball then you have to throw away the bible because it describes over and over the earth being flat and motionless.

From the viewpoint of an earth-bound observer the earth seems flat and motionless. The greater "truth" is obvious from a "higher perspective".

so then you are throwing out the bible?

This is from the bible and see, it supports the flat earth theory because a circle is only a flat plane and not the same as a sphere..

More trash. So, in our solar system. The sun whips the earth around in an elliptical, beyond that, giant planets. Seems as if the sun's gravitational pull is pretty strong in our corner of space. Amazing how it keeps the earth from pulling inwards into the star, but at a perfect habitat distance, yet Jupiter beyond earth, and much more mass, rotating at s perfect distance as well.

In fact, when you start to look at heliocentric theory, with no dogma or bias, it's fucking stupid. It doesn't make any sense. Much like the answer given above makes no sense, it just looks smart. Basically, his answer was a fake pair of Oakleys. Nobody said the vacuum was a force, just that gas from a high pressure system will seek low pressure, with absolutely no work needed.

If not, how could there be seasons, longer days and shorter days in different hemispheres? How can the extreme northern and southern ends have close to 24 hour days and nights?

well, if we live in a dome it could all be controlled

It is a psy-op to mess with your mind. The earth is round.

How could we significantly understand a couple of billion year old celestial system with only a couple of hundred years of critical observation as a society and and less than a hundred years as a mostly ignorant human observer.

Sunlight hitting the earth proves it is spherical.

My mind is messed up. Keep questioning what you "know". Question everything.

Go stand on a cliff with high powered binoculars and the marine traffic app, you'll soon see the curvature of the earth.

I live by the beach and my apartment is about 70ft above sea level. If I look to the horizon I can see with my binoculars large ships travelling in the shipping lanes but if I stand on the beach I can't see them. By the same token I can see ships gradually come into view as they travel at a slight angle to my position so the masts come into view first, then the bridge and then the superstructure and sometimes I can hardly see the ship at all. I can look on marine traffic, find the ships position and then through the binoculars I'll see a mast sticking up over the horizon and nothing more.

In addition when they are at anchor I can for example see a ship say for example 9nm away from my apartment window, but when I go down the the beach I won't be able to see the whole thing, part of the superstructure will be obscured by the curvature to the earth.

This may help to illustrate my point a little further.

"For an observer on the ground with eye level at h = 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m), the horizon is at a distance of 2.9 miles (4.7 km). For an observer standing on a hill or tower 100 feet (30 m) in height, the horizon is at a distance of 12.2 miles (19.6 km)."

You've been quite polite in your replies. Sorry for being so dismissive. I'm used to dealing with Disinfo trolls like Hydra or Dr Astro.

In my world, I like to deal with knowns. You call the universe billions of years old, but you do so completely on faith. Maybe it is, maybe it's not. Maybe it's nothing like we're told. That's my guess. Space travel and exploration all looks to have been made on earth, and sometimes studios/computer cgi. It's all a giant production.

So throw away everything you know or have been taught. It seems like a giant deception. Purpose for this are still unknown to me. I do believe we live in a dome. I don't know why we are lied to about that. Maybe some can offer some good explanations.
