Un-smacking-believable...

As for that image you posted, it depicts 3 things. Your problem is you see one of the shadows that are cast and come to a 4th conclusion not even shown.

I'll find some videos designed for children that explain a round earth for you since the basic math is too much for you to comprehend.

Clearly there is no point in trying to correct your further misunderstanding in your latest copy and paste.

You can't even grasp the concept of straight vs level flight can you?

many blessings

how can these star trails exist from places like canada



canary islands



this does not make sense in a globe model

for you would have to be exactly at the nth pole to observe this point within the star trails

if you were not at the nth pole , in a globe model

it would be impossible to observe polaris attracting the star trail construct .. this is logic

just about everywhere you look there are irregularities ..and if you question them people get upset ..

wonder why that is ?

NASA’s “Blue Marble” Earth is a fake
by Dr. Eowyn
When we think of Earth, this iconic image of the “Blue Marble” immediately comes to mind.

We’ll call the above image “Blue Marble I”.

From Wikipedia:

The Blue Marble is a famous photograph of the Earth, taken on December 7, 1972, by the crew of the Apollo 17 spacecraft, at a distance of about 45,000 kilometers (28,000 miles). It is one of the most iconic, and among the most widely distributed images in human history….

The image is one of the few to show an almost fully illuminated Earth disk (slightly gibbous), as the astronauts had the Sun behind them when they took the image. To the astronauts, Earth had the appearance and size of a glass marble, hence the name.

The photograph was taken about 5 hours and 6 minutes after launch of the Apollo 17 mission, and about 1 hour 54 minutes after the spacecraft left its parking orbit around the Earth, to begin its trajectory to the Moon.

Or maybe that’s not the Blue Marble you have in mind. Maybe it’s this iconic image of a more vividly-colored Blue Marble which was released by NASA in 2002. Let’s call it “Blue Marble II”



Blue Marble II is so familiar to us in part because it was the default image on the first iPhone.



But some sharp-eyed geeks discovered “anomalies” in Blue Marble II, specifically duplicate clouds, as you can see in a cropped section of Blue Marble II (below):



The discovery of duplicate clouds has led to accusations that not only is the 2002 image (Blue Marble II) a fake, the original Apollo 17 image (Blue Marble I) was likely a fake as well. That, in turn, has led some to question whether everything NASA did and said was fake. See, for example, this post from Plane Not A Planet blog.The problem is that, in the years after the first Blue Marble photo was taken by Apollo 17, NASA has released many Blue Marbles, “Blue Marble II” being one of the best known and most popular.

As NASA explains about the 2002 “Blue Marble II”:

Metadata

Data Date: February 8, 2002
Visualization Date: February 8, 2002
This spectacular “blue marble” image is the most detailed true-color image of the entire Earth to date. Using a collection of satellite-based observations, scientists and visualizers stitched together months of observations of the land surface, oceans, sea ice, and clouds into a seamless, true-color mosaic of every square kilometer (.386 square mile) of our planet. These images are freely available to educators, scientists, museums, and the public.

Much of the information contained in this image came from a single remote-sensing device-NASA’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, or MODIS. Flying over 700 km above the Earth onboard the Terra satellite, MODIS provides an integrated tool for observing a variety of terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric features of the Earth. The land and coastal ocean portions of these images are based on surface observations collected from June through September 2001 and combined, or composited, every eight days to compensate for clouds that might block the sensor’s view of the surface on any single day…. The cloud image is a composite of two days of imagery collected in visible light wavelengths and a third day of thermal infra-red imagery over the poles. Global city lights, derived from 9 months of observations from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program, are superimposed on a darkened land surface map.

In other words, rendered in simple English, NASA is saying that the 2002 “Blue Marble II” is not a photo. Instead, the image is a COMBINATION and COMPOSITE of many “satellite-based observations” (whatever that means), which were “stitched together” (whatever that means) by scientists and “visualizers” (whatever that means).

In other words, Blue Marble II is a fake — which would explain the duplicate clouds.

Here’s an admission by Robert Simmon, one of the “visualizers” who “stitched together” Blue Marble II, as related by David Yanofsky in his March 27, 2014 article for Quartz, “The guy who created the iPhone’s Earth image explains why he needed to fake it“:

As it turns out, much of what one might assume about this beautiful image is not true…. It isn’t actually a photograph of earth. And that blackness surrounding it? That’s not space, either….

Simmon, a data-visualizer and designer at NASA’s Earth Observatory, created the image in 2002. He told Quartz it’s not a photograph, but a sophisticated visualization.

Images of the earth may seem commonplace, but there are actually very few pictures of the entire planet. The problem, Simmon said, is all the NASA earth-observing satellites are in low-earth or geostationary orbit, meaning none of them are far enough away to see a full hemisphere. The most familiar pictures of the entire Earth are from the 1960s and 1970s Apollo missions to the moon.

3-25-18 – DOES THE SHAPE OF EARTH REALLY MATTER?

DOES THE SHAPE OF EARTH REALLY MATTER?
Ok, I’ll tackle this controversial subject again. The video I shared that indicated the likelihood that the world in which the trees were silica based was destroyed; and our more “modern” world has carbon-based trees was controversial. It also revealed probable evidence that there has been major mining on this planet; and much of what we have been told are geological processes, are, in fact, evidence of extensive mining. These were certainly claims worth pondering, to me and many others I’m sure. What riled me, however, were the flat earth claims. Ever since discovering the account of the Norwegian father and son who sailed to the north pole, then through the center of the earth coming out by Antarctica, I become convinced that the earth is hollow. Testimony from Admiral Byrd also indicated the same thing: a hollow earth. Now, if flat, is it layered? I’m not sure that concept will please the flat-earthers; but unless we can learn to love one another and stop being enslaved by demons, we’ll destroy whatever earth we live on, no matter what the shape. We need to stop being diverted to things that do not matter, and focus on what will preserve life on this beautiful planet.

So, he didn't go up high enough to prove anything, other than being able to increase his horizon and see further then he could on the ground because of the curvature of the earth.

He should have just taken a commercial flight...

CGI much ?
