So is the curvature there or is it not there? The globe is an irrational psy-op. (media.scored.co)

"Gimmie that map.."

You mean the earth is flat, but a ship disappears over the horizon?

Fixed. Now try Foucault's Pendulum.

Final answer: The Foucault Pendulum proves that the Earth rotates on its axis through the observation of its changing direction of swing over time, caused by the Coriolis effect resulting from the Earth's rotation.

Why bother putting clocks and lighthouses on top of buildings since they should be seen the same from any distance according to flat earth. Because you would NOT be able to see them otherwise.

But you know this.

Foucault's Pendulum does not prove anything. It is a mechanical device used as a parlor trick, you have been duped.

You are saying a pendulum is affected by earth's rotation but a gyroscope which has much more precision is not affected?

Well they both serve two diff purposes. A gyro is supposed to resist movement in all direction.

A pendulum uses gravity as a way to keep itself moving.

Ill argue that yeah its weird that most of these require a electromagnet to keep moving, but technically the experiment can be done with a large enough setup. You only get a few hours of movement which only equates to a few inches on the pendulum.

A gyroscope (from Ancient Greek γῦρος gŷros, "round" and σκοπέω skopéō, "to look") is a device used for measuring or maintaining orientation and angular velocity. It is a spinning wheel or disc in which the axis of rotation (spin axis) is free to assume any orientation by itself.

pendulum, body suspended from a fixed point so that it can swing back and forth under the influence of gravity. Pendulums are used to regulate the movement of clocks because the interval of time for each complete oscillation, called the period, is constant.

It is not an experiment. Just an observation, proves nothing and it never can prove anything.

An experiment requires you to be able to manipulate the independent variable in this case the earth's rotation.

No I'm not saying, you're saying.

A gyroscope isnt' affected why? Because of self-contained counter spin.

Spin. Rotation

But you know this. Now.

A gyroscope maintains rigidity in space. The earth is supposedly moving around thus the gyroscope should reflect this.

Please use your critical thinking skills and break out of the false religion you have been indoctrinated into since childhood.

A fly on a moving train.....he flys 10 mph along with the bullet train at 100 mph.

While the fly is going 110 mph relative to one not on the train, in fact, the fly is flying at 10 mph.

No wait.....10 mph plus the 100 mph of the train plus the spin of the earth.

Man, that's one fast fly isn't it? Prove what 'real' speed the fly is flying and discover the similar error of observing 'relative' rotation/speed between two or more objects.
