So I’ve been looking into this for a few weeks. It’s hard to to explore the globe earth theory as all debunkers are jack asses who responses are basically if you don’t know physics you’re a retard and I can’t help you lol. My conclusion so far is NASA is definitely lying about shit and in reality it seems like their is a lot of people who will never be convinced of a globe unless they can see a curve for them selves. Honestly why do globe defenders get so bent out of shape if it’s such a stupid thing to think the earth is flat. If I was arguing with an idiot I wouldn’t even entertain them. What is the purpose of people pushing flat earth. Flat earthers definitely give a reason to why globe theory is pushed so hard. I would like see some level headed debunkers that can actually explain to a normal person why flat earth is wrong and answers to their questions. I find plenty of explanation for flat earth that answers alot of what global theory people say debunk flat earth.

A point to consider. If earth is flat and not rotating then why would naval gunnery require rotation of the earth for calculating their shots? Hitting a target is pretty important to those guys, considering if the enemy hits you and hits you more before you can hit them, you die and they don’t. It’s honestly really important to shoot and hit something with a 16 inch shell that weighs over 2000 pounds and does significant barrel wear each shot. There was no space race or nasa or optics to consider like today when these calculations were being used to hit the target in 1944. If these corrections aren’t required then adding them would lead to a larger number of misses, where as including them leads to actually hitting the target. Unless flat earth theory has an explanation as for why adding globe earth math into weapon trajectory calculations to make them more accurate, I have to side with the globe model. Plus every other celestial body being spherical when it reaches a large enough size adds more credence. Sphere moon. Sphere sun. Sphere planets in our solar system.
Please send a link to any official gunnery table documents making this claim of accounting for the rotation of the earth, otherwise I will claim this to be untrue as I have looked into this and found no such evidence. Thank you

Fifth scan down on the page given.
Eugeneleeslover.com ? Lmao I'm not clicking that or trusting that source. Nice try though
I listed the page as the source for the scanned material you asked for. I also gave you the bureau of ordnance letter number itself as well as the date. You are free of course to request the document officially yourself or search for a scan of it on a website you do trust.
