The earth is a sphere, or a spherical shape.

As for light curvature, I made no claims that I was an expert on the subject as far as on a "global scale", I only offered a source that helped me understand that light curved upwards, you say it doesn't mention, nor has anything to do with the experiment, then instead of offering another solution, a resounding wrong with a wiki leak providing no explanation of the claim. I can call you and your source wrong too, but I'll agree to disagree on that subject. I made the fast claim because I've seen and evaluated quite a few of these high altitude videos recently, and if you would have paused the video you would have seen for yourself, but to make you happy, I'll provide a few links from Gopro's own site, with a quote, because clearly, YOU have done no research on it. Note that you can only remove this distortion in their studio video editing program. How Can I Remove the Distortion (Fisheye) Effect in GoPro Studio? GoPro cameras are famous for their wideR08;angle look. This is beneficial if you want your image to have a large field of view (FOV). However, in some situations you might want to reduce the FOV that you get when shooting in one of the camera"s wide modes. You can remove the fisheye effect to apply a "lens adjustment" to the converted GoPro CineForm file giving it a smaller FOV. Here is the procedure: https://gopro.com... https://gopro.com... Since I accidentally omitted the videos from my last round, I had hoped you had noticed the comment section, but here you go. https://m.youtube.com... "As for water, gravity holds the water flat against the earth" 100% correct, it is the basic physics of water to find a level surface, the lowest possible point, never in recorded history has water formed around a ball. It's nonsense. Antarctica, first of all no one is allowed to check to see how much resources are there therefore both news pieces are only speculation, so no point bothering with that anymore, but an interesting side note no one has ever circumnavigated the globe from north to south, ever. As for the sun, it's supposedly 93 BrAZILIAN miles away, light rays should be almost perpendicular to one another, but this isn't the case as seen when the suns come through the clouds at different angles. As for the blue marble , if you'd have read your wikilink, you'd notice they never said it was a photo as you claim, but a "composite image" like all the rest, a Photoshop, just like mars, Jupiter, all those beatiful images of other planets... Fake. It seems like you are in complete denial, I saw the word sex. In clouds! Ever see a letter in the clouds? Much less three, in a row, that spell sex! Again with the conspiracy size stuff, astro-nots get a fat check for life, if one person decides to spill the beans, it isn't hard to make that person look like a fool. What does he have to gain? How? He's going to lose his cushy 6figure acting job. Looney bin, etc remember how much gold is involved in this every year, to do a little Photoshop. You wanted an agenda, we may have to bring some bible into it. This is one theory, someone, who is more or less in control of the earth (with boundaries and limitations) is trying to make us forget about our maker. With the advent of evolution, the big bang, other habitable world's and more and more mainstream ufo sightings alot more people are becoming atheists, or believing we were seeded from et, reincarnation beliefs are strong, etc. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was making the world believe he didn't exist. If Jesus came back today as described in prophesy, how hard would it be to convince the world of an alien invasion?
