Alright go back to talking about how Aristotle played with sextants 2000 years before they existed. Your origional post was an obviously stupid premise, and I know you understand that now. Just so ya know when you watch Hollywood movies about space, those are all fake too, I don't want you to get confused since you fall for Nasas tricks.
Your origional post was an obviously stupid premise,
it was ill-phrased ... just trying to understand what part is "science" you think is fake. not the geometry, part - apparently ?
If we live on a sphere with a circumference of 24,901 miles then the geometry is inarguable and this curve should be observable on land and water over a given distance.
according to a quick google search...
Visual daytime observations show that the minimum altitude at which curvature of the horizon can be detected is at or slightly below 35,000 ft, providing that the field of view is wide (60 degrees ) and nearly cloud free.
you say "bullshit!"
you say:
should be observable on land
no , not at all. standing on a perfectly smooth ball as large as the Earth... you would see zero curvature - technically there will be a 0.12 degree arc, but you won't be able to see that with your eyes.
you were correct until like 2 years ago. now you are just a dumbass - twice:
once for buying into the pysop
and again, for not admitting a slight error in judgement :)

no bro... standing on a huge ball as big as the earth... the arc is so small you won't see it.
you would have better luck to see the curvature of the Earth ...as it drops-out over the horizon....
/Hope that helps.
