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

...when I was growing up...

Gosh Miles, when was that?

You mean to say that you're no longer growing up?

I think that you are late for the party.

Meanwhile, this morning (in America) Mercury transited the face of the Sun, and this event (sadly not visible from Australia) was observed and recorded in many places. It was too cloudy here in the Southern USA but if the skies had been clear I would have observed it myself, as I observed and photographed the transit of Venus in 2012. Astronomers have used such transits of Mercury and Venus for many years to tell us about the nature of the Solar System. In 1716, the astronomer Edmund Halley proposed a method, using Venus transits, for determining the distance from the Earth to the Sun. They already knew enough at that early date to calculate when these rare transits would occur. So in 1761 and 1769, several international expeditions were mounted to locations where the transits of Venus could be observed precisely in order to make this measurement of the Earth-Sun distance.

Flat Earth 747: SOFIA Is The Real Hubble & Chandra Telescope @ 45,000 feet

Hubble and Chandra doesn't exist, and is nothing but a fairy tale as told by NASA!

Flat Earth: Connecting the dots, NASA's space is water!

"A lot of things swimming in the foreground", as quoted in NASA's fake video of their so-called tether experiment, ROFLMAO!  More fairy tales as told by NASA and their co-conspirators (other space agencies)!
