Is The Earth A Flat Round Disc or Is It a Round Spherical Globe?

You glossed over a big difference there.

"You need to do as I say or you will be shot!" 

Those poor bastards in the underground munition works were not following orders as much as they were trying to stay alive.  You can read all about this as much research has been done and all of it was published.

No, I did not gloss over a big difference.  I would not do anything that is against my own consciousness and beliefs.  You do not compromise your core values and beliefs for another person by causing harm to another, period.  You're not exercising your own consciousness by blindly following orders.  We are individuals!  We are not borg or part of a collective mind.

Yes you did gloss over it.  It is very easy to type that you would never compromise your principles but, let's just think about how you might react with a Lugar in your ear....or a family member of yours...you might just build that rocket motor after all.

Whatever Dude.  I am sure everyone here reading this believes you.

Are you sure its 8 inch every mile ?

No, the obscuration height on a spherical Earth is 8 inches at 1 mile, not  8 inches per mile.
For example, the obscuration height at 2 miles is 32 inches (not 16 inches).
...and at 10 miles the obscuration height is 800 inches (not 80 inches).


The full formula for the the obscuration height (h) on a spherical Earth is:
h = ( r / cos( arc/r ) ) - r

_{where:
r: mean radius of the Earth (6371km or 3959miles),
arc: the length of the arc (distance measured between two points along the water's/Earth's surface)}



P.S.
All of that photographic evidence of the objects beyond the horizon cannot be trusted because the atmosphere distorts and ducts light rays.
