The Earth is flat

Let's see. Firstly, I need to remind you that no side is allowed to use mere webpages and videos as arguments without elaborating, as stated in the rule number 3; "No use of external links solely as arguments, but only as sources". I allowed it on the arctic midnight sun argument, justified with the claim that the article explains the phenomenon better than you could, but I am going to ignore further arguments composed solely of external sources. Anyway, I will reply to the two videos cited. 1. Coriolis effect i. The video assumed that the Sun and the moon can affect the seas as massive magnets, with the former charged positively and the latter charged negatively. Would you mind explaining how exactly can that be so? That is surely one extraordinary claim. ii. The video also dismisses the Coriolis effect happening on a spherical Earth because the currents rotate clockwise on the northern hemisphere and counterclockwise on the southern hemisphere, deeming it illogical. The case is, the maker of the video apparently did not even study the Coriolis effect beforehand, as they are ignorant of the fact that, in a rotating sphere with the rotation axis going through the poles, the rotation velocity of the surface is increased near the equator, where the distance, and thus the rotation velocity of the central axis reaches the maximum. That is the impact the equator has on the Coriolis effect, which the video claimed to be null; greater rotation speed implies, of course, impact on the currents' pressure differences. 2. Foucault's pendulum i. The video deems the pendulum a failed experiment, providing no sources. ii. The pendulum rotating clockwise, counterclockwise or not at all depends on its location on the hemispheres, as the Coriolis effect postulates. The above do not make the experiment failed, but rather successful. iii. The pendulum cannot start oscillating by itself, due to its high mass and inertia. iv. The video suggests that all pendulums worldwide would start oscillating just like Foucault's pendulum if that was the case. On the contrary, the pendulum requires high mass, because otherwise it would be affected by air resistance, friction etc. 3. Chicago Skyline i. Atmospheric refraction is a phenomenon known to have such effects. If you do not believe me, you may well watch the following video, taken by the same person whose picture you based your argument on. Even the horizon and the buildings in the background can be seen to wobble abnormally [1]. ii. I'm sorry for that, it seems that I copy-pasted the link to another page of the same website. I was typing on my mobile phone, so perhaps I changed the page without noticing. The one I intended to cite has done and presented research to back up their claims [2]. iii. Here is an interesting discussion on the topic [3]. 4. No evidence of the curvature First of all, I would like to point out that not having pictures of the Earth's curvature does not suggest anything about the shape of the latter. I found the video against the blue marble quite intriguing. Despite that, I am not going to address the blue marble for now, while the moon landing is, in my opinion, material for a separate debate in which I have no interest right now. Instead, I will argue against the claim "there is no evidence if the Earth's curvature" with the following pictures and video; [4,5,6]. Through these, the curvature is clearly demonstrated. 5. Flights over Antarctica On the contrary, weather is a significant factor. The establishment of flight routes with passengers above a place with such probability of bad weather condition is certainly not a wise thing to do. Indeed, the weather may not always be severe, but that does not mean it never is [7]. It is only rational to not risk the passengers' lives. Furthermore, I would like to mention that there have been recorded flights over Antarctica [8,9]. 6. Flight patterns The reason flights patterns exist is because people want them. It is common sense that the patterns would be created according to the passengers' will. If people statistically want to fly from Johannesburg to London and from London to Sao Paolo, then so will the flight patterns be. That simple. 6. Gravity Due to gravity, the water is pulled towards the centre of the sphere. Your experience of water maintaining its level stems from the fact that you have only observed the effects of gravity from the flat-like surface's viewpoint. The answer is, the Earth is too big for you to see the water not maintaining its level. As for your explanation of gravity, it simply is illogical: i. Density itself cannot produce the effects of gravity, as it generates no actual force. It is merely a counting system of how massive an object is in a certain volume. ii. Buoyancy is a result of gravity. If there was no gravity to pull the water and air molecules, the aforementioned would not cause the effect called "buoyancy". As for the video, please address your points. 7. Midnight sun Yet, you did not debunk my claim, as nor does the article. It merely mentions it. Sources: [1].
