Question regarding your flat-earther sister. How does she think satellites work? Also horizons, weather forecasting, and trans-continental flight? I’m curious!
My friend I wish I had enough hours in the day to explain her crazy conspiracy theories that back up her flat earth nonsense. Long story short, satellites don’t move, they hover as the disc spins, weather is controlled by the government, and trans continental flight works the same but different bc the continents are arranged differently on Flat Earth. Also, in case you wanted your funny bone tickled, she believes the moon landing was faked and that dinosaurs never existed and it’s all a government scam to make us teach evolution instead of creationism in schools.

oh my god
Responding to your tags: “gravity works the same bc the Earth is flat.”
You’re welcome.
They just… hover there? What keeps them up? Are there just engines hooked up to perpetual-motion machines or something keeping them up there? Otherwise they’d… yaknow… do the falling thing!
I’d ask about pictures of Earth from space but the answer would be “fake, special effects” as, I’m sure, would be questions about footage of people in null gravity, or that one video of a guy who just got back from the ISS giving a talk and forgetting that he can’t just let things go and they’ll float there and dropping his pen. Which is, incidentally, hilarious and if I can find it I’ll link it here.
FOUND IT!
