Flat-earther blasts off in homemade rocket in bid to reassure himself world is shaped 'like a Frisbee':
>A self-taught rocket man who believes the earth is flat blasted himself 1,875 feet into the air, in an effort to reach orbit and reassure himself the world is shaped “like a Frisbee >He reached a speed he estimated to be around 350mph before pulling his parachute. >The launch is said to have lasted three to four minutes, with the rocket landing about 1,500 feet from the ramp.
A man did this with 20 thousand dollars, why the hell do we pay NASA 18 billion again?
He could have just chartered a mid to high altitude flight with that money, what a retard.
Anthony Perry
Jesus fucking Christ. We were promised flying cars and instead we have retards who have gone back to thinking the world is flat.
Aiden White
So he could have taken a trip to the largest building in the world with greater effect and saved himself 20 grand.
Sounds like a failure to me.

>make your own rocket and parachute down like a beast
or
>be a nigger and fly a plane next to other niggers
Pick one.
Joshua Green
>1,875 feet Thats not even as high as a bunch of the tallest buildings. It's about a 30th of a plane's cruising altitude. Why didn't he just go up a tall building or get a plane ticket? >20 thousand dollars He could've just bought a plane.
Owen Hernandez
>1,875 feet into the air The idiot could have bought a round trip airline ticket for a couple of hundred bucks and seen the world at 30,000 feet.
Dylan Allen
>retards who have gone back to thinking the world is flat. I think it is mostly to get attention. You have to admit, he got his 15 minutes of fame.
Jaxon Thompson
how the fuck did you guys develop the tech to nuke us twice when you have retards like this
Juan Smith
Chartering a plane means you basically rent it as a taxi, to carry on you, you nigger.
Joseph Cooper
>1,875 feet into the air, So not high enough to see the curvature of the earth...
>why the hell do we pay NASA 18 billion again? Why are you shilling?
Benjamin Morris
Both American geniuses and American retards have this level of drive, it creates some fun things.
>how the fuck did you guys develop the tech to nuke us twice when you have retards like this If you don't want to end up like us, Japan, kill all your leftists NOW.
Liam Howard
airplane windows are a simulation
Leo Smith
NASA was going higher than 1875 feet.
Jackson Powell
we pay them for actually making it into orbit and landing safely in a repeatable manner.
Question...why does it matter whether the Earth is flat or not? I'm no well versed on the debate, but is there a reason for the debate? As in evidence to the contrary that is significant enough for a rebuttal of the popular conviction?
All of these experiments fail to give you an understanding of just how massive the earth is. Here is some pasta that explains why the DogCam footage that is often used to "prove" flat earth is a flawed theory.
-------
Dog Cam flight was 110,000 feet above the earth.
"How can you possibly come to the conclusion that the Earth is flat from a perspective that is only 110,000 feet? Let me do some math for you idiots. The earths diameter is 41,804,400 feet. That is 380 times larger than the altitude that this video was taken at. Take a 10 inch dinner plate and look at the curve of it while holding it 0.668 millimeters from your pupil. That is the same perspective that this video has of the Earth. It's physically impossible to because the distance between your cornea and your pupil is more than that, but just use your imagination. You can not see the curve of the plate at all. Because your perspective of the curve is far too close. Hence why you cannot see a curve in the video above."
Again, I lack knowledge in religious reasoning for a flat Earth... do you know of any?
Thomas Brown
you guys don't get it. This hobby is expensive. What better way to fund it than convincing a bunch of tards to give their money?
Cameron Gonzalez
Also a very simple debunk of Flat Earth is understanding that the Moon Phases would not be possible on a flat earth model.
You may even see "Flat Earth Moon Phase" models on YouTube but they fail to tell you that the moon in the southern hemisphere is "upside down". This is "Common Man Logic".
Flat Earthers will try to plug this theory hole by saying "The moon rotates like a dinner plate" or "It lights up on it's own". You can go on any moon phase sight on the net and clearly see that the phases in north-vs-south hemisphere are reversed.
Flat Earth is a PsyOp used to pushed conspiracy theory into the fringes and thus discredit ALL conspiracy theory. It's a co-opt to try and destroy credibility.

>why the hell do we pay NASA 18 billion again? to keep all the diversity hires on payroll duh
Xavier Nelson
>implying the point wasn't to build himself a rocket and launch it for shits a giggles
I'll give that bait a 7/10 and a bonus point for Comfy Pepe because I honestly can't feel anything....being so autistic and all...and comfy Pepe makes me feel so warm and wholesome inside.
Ayden Evans
>less than 2,000 feet on a glove with a circumference of 24,000 miles. >erf flet
Matthew Campbell
You autism is well appreciated I've enjoyed your explanation.
probably cheaper to buy a plane ticket. or are windows part of the conspiracy
Joseph Robinson
I like how you guys are calling this guy a retard or an idiot. He built a half ass rocket, that's something. You can say what you want about his ideas of reality, but fuck, the old fucker built a damn rocket.
Ian Sanders
>religious >reasoning Haha, funny. >are windows part of the conspiracy Yes.
Ian Martinez
they stole it from us, obviously. and now that all the old nazis are dead, they are getting stupider by the minute- enter f-35
any more silly questions
Aiden Russell
I fucking told you we would play Space this spring. It's not rocket appliances dip shit.
>The virgin travel vs. the chad self built rocket.
Luis Brooks
F35 shits all over the Europoor Typhoon.
Jayden Jackson

James Baker
lol you can see the curve its slight just extend the line to the edges of the photos
Landon Taylor
For numerous of things, mainly that rocket can't carry more then ten-twenty pounds, not including the fuel, which carries it's own weight. The things NASA does do is frequently launch satellites to collect data about the Earth, which one of them is called the Soil Moisture Active Passive is currently collect data about soil moisture, which is often used to predict droughts and farming conditions and handing that information for free so agriculturists can see how's the soil doing in one part of the world, compared to another. Another part of that money is going towards asteroid defense, which trying to develop ways that would prevent giant space rocks from hitting your house and maybe wiping out the human race. Not to mention NASA research has lead to numerous of everyday inventions such has solar panels, freeze drying and chemical detection systems.
