Interesting that NASA chose to launch this thing on Jesus' birthday

In case you don't want to go outside right now
Are you familiar with the Coriolis effect? The spin of the earth affecting the sniper's ability to hit their target and so calculations must be done to offset the spin of the earth during the bullet's flight
Most people have heard of this so I like using it as an example early in the conversation, as well
The point I want to make, is that why do we make these adjustments for the bullet but not for any other airborne object?
Why do the airplane, helicopter, hot air balloon or bird get to ignore this phenomena but the sniper must account for it?
We are told the earth is spinning appx 1021mph at 10 degrees latitude, which is pretty close to the equator
Slower as you approach the poles

1021mph is about a quarter mile per second
When the hot air balloon leaves the ground, does the earth spin a quarter mile per second below it? Of course not.
The globers will say that inertia continues to pull the balloon along in perfect harmony with the earth but then why not the bullet, too?
It's all nonsense
Good point. What turned my head was that pic of Chicago across the great lake. Mr round earth spent an afternoon trying to convince me that was a mirage. Lol
Haha right?
We know what mirages look like and that’s not it
That’s how obvious a lot of this nonsense is and once you start looking into it for real there’s no going back
The shills come out hard to defend the globe because if FE goes mainstream, the house of cards collapses
Think of people like Elon Musk
Space company, boring company, battery company, starlink and brainchips
But I like most of what he says
Do you think he’s aware the earth isn’t a spinning globe? I’d have a hard time believing he doesn’t, considering spacex
