I was a substitute school teacher for a number of years. I was substituting a 5th grade class, and while discussing the story the class had read, I made mention that the Earth was round. Lesson done, recess bell rings, I let the students out. A boy carrying a basketball stops at the door and says to me, _"The Earth is round?"_ *"Just like your basketball,"* I replied. He had this look of concentration. I do not think he ever considered what the earth's shape actually was until then. I told him I wanted to show him something and went outside to the yard. Pointed to the sun "There's the sun," and then had him stand so he was looking 90 degrees away from it. Took the ball and placed it literally on the side of his head. *"See the ball?"* _"Yes."_ *"It's all in shade?"* _"Yes."_ *"That is night."* I then turned him towards the sun with the ball still on the side of his head. *"You just had a sunrise and it is now daytime."* Just seeing understanding click in his head has been one of my proudest moments.

A flat earther once told me that the moon was inside of earth’s atmosphere, therefore no human had ever been to space. He then linked an article about the geocorona. That same article used the round earth model.

[@rayopeongo]

As usual, they misinterpret everything. A few years ago, it was discovered that very, very, very thin wisps of the earth's atmosphere reach all the way out to the moon and beyond. So, technically, the flat earthers are correct to say that the moon is within the earth's atmosphere. However, that does not mean that the moon is closer than 250,000 miles, and certainly not the 3,000 to 5,000 miles away that flat earthers claim. It just means that the atmosphere extends much farther than we thought.

@@gmain1977 "it is not as far as what be been told by NASA" Who the hell cares what NASA says or does? The earth was proven to be a spinning sphere orbiting the sun long before the US existed, never mind NASA. Even if everything that NASA has ever done was shown to be fake (and that will never happen), it still wouldn't prove that the earth was flat. The fact that flat earthers continuously harp on irrelevancies like NASA just shows how weak their arguments are. There are dozens of different observations and experiments that anyone can do to figure out for themselves the shape of the world and the organization of the solar system. The Flat Earth Math channel has a list of videos describing easy, inexpensive experiments you can do to figure out if the earth is flat or spherical. Here is the easiest one, and it completely debunks the idea that the moon is as close as flat earthers say it is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnOZfYSJab12bsk Then there is this one. How do lunar eclipses work on a flat earth? Astronomers using the heliocentric model can predict decades in advance when they will happen. They can predict when they will start, when they will end, where they will be visible from, how they will look for anywhere on earth, and they will be precisely right about all of it every time. A lunar eclipse makes perfect sense in the heliocentric model. Meanwhile, flat earthers can't even agree on a possible flat earth explanation for lunar eclipses, never mind predict them. A lunar eclipse makes no sense at all in the flat earth model, and they know it too. Asking questions about lunar eclipses is a quick and easy way to get banned from flat earth social media. There was a lunar eclipse a couple of weeks ago, and tens of millions of people witnessed it. All you have to do is look up at the right time. There will be another one on November 8. If a lunar eclipse is visible in your area and the sky is clear, go ahead and have a look, then try to explain how what you saw with your own eyes works on a flat earth. Debunking the flat earth is so easy that anyone can do it, even you.

[@lotsaspaghetticodejr.6488]

I recall seeing a seminar on gravity and space travel once and someone asked how difficult it is to overcome gravity. The professor just looked confused, jumped and said it's super insanely easy because of how weak gravity is in relation to the other forces that exist. However, the reason it's so hard is because of two reasons: - Distance - Mass We have a very, very, very far distance to go to leave Earth, and to do this we need fuel. But the fuel has mass we must overcome. But adding more fuel adds more mass. So you essentially need to add so much fuel that the downward force is so great that you lift yourself off the surface. Then, it gets easier and easier as you burn more and more fuel. But the actual concept of overcoming gravity? Stand up. You just beat gravity.

[@maxfan1591]

The example I like to use regarding the strength of gravity is that a tree can hold onto an apple with a stalk a couple of millimetres wide, against the gravitational pull of the rest of the Earth.

[@xyex]

This is what so many seem to not be able to understand. Gravity is an incredibly weak force compared to other forces. It's just *constantly* being applied to/from anything with mass. The other forces we apply are not constant and/or require energy to maintain. So while they can overcome gravity temporarily gravity typically wins in the long term. My favorite is when you explain that gravity is weak and they ask "well then how is it keeping the oceans down?" Uh, because it's a force? And there's not a stronger force trying to pull the water away?

But this is a _very_ common misconception. Did you never read that if the skin of a spacecraft (or even aircraft) were punctured the air (or crew) would be 'sucked' out--rather than 'blown' out by the higher interior pressure? Did you never hear that "Nature abhors a vacuum"--despite the vast majority of the universe being, more or less, a vacuum? Incidentally, vacuums are terribly hard to attain and maintain for we earthbound mortals simply because of the ever present atmosphere in which we live. Despite the decades that have since passed, I still remember all too clearly the tedium at university of plotting pressures as an oil diffusion pump ever-so-slowly did it's best to produce a hard vacuum before my lab time ended!

Vacuum doesn't suck, pressure expells. Imagine 20 people stuffed in the car. As soon as you open the doors, a bunch of them are gonna spill out. Does that mean outside "lack-of-people vacuum" sucked the inside "more-people air"? No, they were so tightly packed that upon release they all just expelled outside. Like air pressure, where molecules keep bumping into each other and fly away in the opposite direction after a collision (sometimes). If the opposite side is open (vacuum) and not occupied by same air molecules bumping into each other, they get expelled out. Back to the analogy, what if the van people were tied around with a thick-ass rope? Even after opening the door they won't fall out. People that had learnt that outside "lack of people vacuum" sucks, would get really confused by this phenomenon and say this is a hoax. But you my friend now know that the people were expelling out by their own means, and now they are tied by a rope so they can't.

You can plot the change in time fallen with the derivative of the distance vs time graph. Doing this will get you around 9.8m/s^2. And yes I had to do that for a high school lab in 10th grade.

It's from Rowbothams work. During cold foggy nights the light of a full moon makes moisture evaporate from grapes making the grapes even colder. Vineyard owners know this as it helps to improve the quality of icewine. Vineyards advertise with this phenomena still today. quote: "The Vidal grapes for this icewine were hand-harvested in two picks: December 23, 2017 and January 3, 2018, under a brilliant full moon. " Rowbotham interpreted the effect completely wrong.

What evidence can you put forth to show someone they should value evidence. What logical argument can you make to show someone they should value logic. What reasons can you give for valuing reason. If someone does not value the underlying principles of intellectual integrity, "conversation" is over before it even begins. These people top out at "able to make wordy sounds." The discrepancy of intelligence among the human species is really staggering for someone nestled comfortably in the valley of Dunning-Kruger. I can't imagine how the most intelligent among us must feel about the least... I really expect people that dense to be like, learning disabled or something... but some of them sound like they have at least a drop of wit to them and that's the scariest part methinks.

Professor Dave’s rebuttals are a public service. There has always been a very small percentage of humanity who are ignorant, gullible and/or delusional enough - usually referred to as "sheep" - to believe any idea, no matter how absurd: astrology, psychic phenomena, faith healing, witchcraft, fortune telling, UFOs, anti-vax, QAnon, flat earth, lizard people, etc., etc., etc. Even worse, there has always been a small group of charlatans who will do and say anything to try to scam money from those sheep. Anyone can easily debunk the idea that the earth is flat, and Professor Dave helps them do that. Once they realize that the earth is not flat, they will hopefully also realize that anyone who deliberately and repeatedly says that it is flat is either ignorant, lying or delusional. Either way, they can't be trusted to tell the truth about anything.
