Mike Hughes is doing his part to determine if this is legit.

the earth is flat!

Fun Fact: There is no "earthrise". Tidal locking, the same reason we only see one side, means Earth stays in the same position all the time.

Wow come to think of it the moon is pretty flat also...

lol you believe in the earth

Earth doesn't actually rise over the moon horizon, since moon is tidally locked. Thus moon landing must be a lie.

Why are there no stars in the background?

How come there's no sky color during the day time on the moon?

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

What? Moon doesn't have a sky. There's no atmosphere. No sky, just empty above area

Apollo 8. Later the crew recited Genesis 1:1. Which led NASA to be sued by an atheist stopping them from reading religious works

How much more proof do you need that the Earth is round...? If it was flat, the entire planet would be in the shot, and that shadow gone.1/2

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

It's funny that it even needs to get that far. Physics doesn't allow for a disc earth. Satellites, space flight, and the moon wouldn't work.

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Because, y'know, the entire world would experience night/day at the same fucking time? 2/2

Dude I get it but your argument is silly, if these people can think NASA are tricking us to sell globes they can believe this is shopped
