Is The Earth Flat Or Round?

So, you don't believe in space travel? How about photos at various points around the edge taken from an aircraft?

I already posted a pic of the edge several pages ago.

The word is "you're" as in "you are".

There is NO WAY possible that this could be true. Why would you say such a thing?

The actual 'edge' of the earth may be thousands of miles beyond the dome at ground level - which is hundreds or thousands of miles beyond the ice ring.

I was referring to the edge of the ice ring.

And this is why there are no pictures of the 'edge' of the earth.

The best you can hope for at this point is pictures of the ice wall.

This one?

There is no need to use the word 'edge' when [generally] referring to the ice ring - it is naturally understood.

Do you see how confusing it can be?

At the time, I wasn't thinking of the edge beyond the dome because I never would have thought anyone would think it is possible to take a picture from beyond the dome.

Did somebody say -beyond the dome?

Yes, it is not possible to take a picture from beyond the dome.

I wonder if we could get some aliens on other worlds to get us some images from the other side of this dome-thingie?

I'm not sure if this topic is tongue-in-cheek or not. The earth is neither flat nor round. It is a spheroid: a sphere-like but not perfectly spherical body.

Bless my space-boots

Flat Earth zealots don't believe in aircraft, photograpy, space travel, maps, gravity, compasses, a third dimension, time zones, Capt James Cook, lunar eclipses, shadows, satellites, tides, GPS, magnetic fields, astronauts, an equator, shadows, orbital rotation, submarines, sextants, auroras, mathmatics, airlines, seasons, electromagnetic radiation, Antarctica, telescopes, The Moon, latitude, The International Space Station, curves, Isaac Newton, ships, The Planet Earth, air-traffic control, sunsets, cartographers, satellite TV, solar flares, Eratosthenes, South, The Solar System, history, science, time or exploration.

They can't even be sure if they exist themselves.

A very simple experiment to test the spherical shape of the Earth was
devised centuries years ago by a guy whose name I cannot recall.

Anyway, he set a pole in the ground perfectly vertical at one location, and
then a good number of miles directly south of there, set another pole of
equal height.

Then at high noon, he and some assistants measured the length of each
pole's shadow; and they differed quite a bit. He reasoned that the difference
could only be the result of the Sun's elevation being higher in the sky at one
place and lower in the sky at the other.

Well; it didn't take him long to figure that seeing as how the elevation of a
flat Earth noon Sun would be the same at both locations, then the only sensible
explanation for the difference is curvature.

In point of fact, there are locations on the Earth's surface where the high noon
Sun is directly overhead and poles cast a shadow on their very footing. If overhead
perfect enough, poles cast no shadow.

An alternative to a spherical Earth is one that's sort of like a flapjack bent
around the surface of a rolling pin. Then the Earth would at least be flat on a
line going east to west while curved on a line going north to south. A planet
shaped like that wouldn't be a sphere but its curvature would at least have a
little something to please the ball camp; though not totally to please the disk
camp.
