The First Flight Over the North Pole in 1926 Took off From Ny-Ålesund and Landed Near Teller Alaska. The First Flight to Fly Over the South Pole in 1929 Both Took off From and Landed at Little America Exploration Base. Which in No Way Is the Same Thing.

And somehow they accomplished this without compasses working. Which later proved problematic in 1979:

If someone want to fly over the North Pole today, they can do that by taking a direct flight from New York to Hong Kong. Takes about 15.5 hours. Flies most days of the week. Expect tickets to be around $500-$1000.

Not certain if relevant to the topic of the post. There exist some other flight that does the same, but this is one of those that been operating for the longest, and gets you the closest to the North Pole.

Correct. People fly over the North Pole all the time. There however is little evidence that anyone has actually flown over the South Pole.

Yes. From Sidney to where the ice starts, there is about 2000 miles, which should take about 4,5 hours to fly. Once you are there, all you can do is turn around: so a total flight time of 9 hours. Anyone trying to undertake such a flight would need permission to do so, good luck obtaining such a thing. They probably going to make you pay insurance for a rescue operation, which easily could come down to $1.000.000.

Once at the ice edge, you could try and keep flying South, but it would not take long until you are in a land engulfed in constant darkness, with howling winds, and zero radar communication. Finding your way back to the ocean would be a challenge in itself: you probably would need a boat to stay in radar contact with, while exploring further South, to make sure you do not get lost over the ice. Boats sailing to far South will get intercepted by the Coast Guard, so again, need permission, which is going to cost a lot of money, for insurance of a potential rescue operation, or so they say.

Wonder how many people actually know you can fly over the North Pole though. I seen some pretty odd conspiracies in regards to what is at the North Pole, there being more land there, etc.

So the top half of earth is semispheric and the bottom half is flat? I'm down.

I wonder if the magnetometers in people's brains go haywire if the pole passes through their head...

You have a lot of trouble visualizing things don't you?

Now do you understand why you can pass over the North Pole but not the South?

But earth is a torus and that's why you can fly east and arrive where you started. The ice in your poles separates our isolated 6 continents from the neighboring 6 continents. Earth is way bigger/longer than they say. Only a select few individuals can move or communicate between "planets" in our toroidal ecosystem.

Like, earth is a cylinder and our North pole is touching the next earth's south pole, on and on in a great arching line.

Yes, that is one belief. But you can't just type a reply assuming everyone reading it knows that's what you were thinking. Where as the flat earth model is a little more self explanatory. Your theory also flies in the face of reality were flights do travel over the north pole.

When I typed my first comment it was tongue in cheek imagining earth as a snowglobe shape flat on the bottom and bulbous on the north half.

"According to plan, Balchen landed the airplane to take on 200 gallons of fuel that had been pre-positioned at the base of the Liv Glacier. The Floyd Bennett took-off again and landed back at Little America around 21:10 UTC. Total mission time was nearly 19 hours."

This got Byrd promoted. Does smell of BS. Land on the spot where the 200 gallons where hidden for you, to fill up in the fucking cold, after throwing out your food?

That’s easy, but doesn’t have anything to do with the op.

Any chance there is a version of this that doesn’t talk about flat earth? I’d share it but most people will immediately dismiss and delete this.

You can link to individual videos that explore the topics, such as Tartaria. Or you can approach it as I had, and simply Question if there is any truth behind what flat earthers believe. Calling it a 'resource for debating flat earthers'. As I had simply watched the video to learn if there was any logic actually being used.

Something’s up, I don’t know what it is exactly. They are hiding something but I don’t claim to know what it is. I don’t believe we went to moon. Something weird down in Antarctica. We should have thousands of pictures of the earth from space. I seriously doubt the existence of satellites past low earth orbit. Supposedly a large part of satellites are 35-40,000 miles out. No f’n way. Flat earthers don’t seem to agree on much either. If the earth is flat, what the hell is under us? If there is a firmament above us, what the hell is on the other side? Are we in a petri dish and just a science experiment of some sort? Too many questions that can’t be answered. I can look through my 90 power telescope and see the other planets and their moons. I can see that they are spherical. Why would the Earth be any different? The truth is somewhere inbetween, imo.

That video is basically an introduction to crater Earth. Implying a massive stationary planetoid with a small habitable zone that moves slowly across the surface over the ages. Which is why we migrated to the "new world". Which would be why we would be traveling to "Mars", secretly a location here on this world.

Implied in these theories, is that they are either hiding a small land mass, or 90% of the Earth's surface, and possibly other species that inhabit those lands.

So basically, earth is like Saturn, and the black cube of Saturn, the hexagonal storm is their firmament.
