- [Considering the earth is an oblate spheroid, slightly bulging at the middle due to its rotation, and that water is much more free to move under the influence of both gravitational pull and that rotation] Why is there land at the equator [why isn't the land at the equator completely covered in water]?
- Can i see the earth's curvature [with my own eyes - not a photo/footage] or not? [and if so, how?]
- Why haven't we ever seen curved water [even on large still frozen lakes, some of which are hundreds of miles long]?
- How are we breathing right now [if space is a vacuum and our atmosphere is constantly heated by the sun - and hence rising]?
- Is the earth very very small, or is the sun very very near [considering crepuscular rays from the sun are plainly visible]
- How does the convex lens of the atmosphere cause light to diverge - causing the presumed illusion of visible crepuscular rays [this is sometimes claimed as the/a cause of visible crepuscular rays from the sun]?
- Why doesn't the artificial horizon (an aircraft flight instrument) roll backwards during straight and level flight?
- Why is the coriolis effect so selective? [Some claim that projectiles like bullets and artillery must consider the rotation of the world beneath them, but in the same breath claim that airplanes are not affected and rotate with the earth - see video for more detail]
- [Considering that things that are far away seem to be moving slower than things moving the same speed which are close to us, for example as is visible in the differing apparent speed of the road in front of us and the apparent speed of billboards in the periphery] What is the ISS flying over [as there is no visible/apparent difference in speed from the land traveling directly beneath the iss and the land in the periphery as we would expect from our experience]?
- How can microgravity be selective? [Specific questions about space footage - see video]
- Why are there so many craters on the side of the moon facing the earth [and why are those impacts primarily/all perpendicular to its surface considering the earth is effectively "blocking" that side - especially when the meteor is traveling perpendicularly to that visible surface]?
- Why don't we see permanent hills, valleys, and mountains in the [surface of the] oceans [that mirror the undersea topology]?
