>>20860430Here's a digital gravimeter. It measures the changes in gravitational fields over time. As you can find a map for, gravity changes depending on your location quite drastically, and isn't constant no matter the location.
Can the flat earthers who blame gravity on 'buoyancy' explain this? How about that the gravitational force is independent of air pressure? How about that the distance a spring is stretched when holding a known weight is reduced when standing on the equator compared to the north pole?
These two testable, measurable observations are consistent with a round earth, and utter nonsense on a flat one.
>>20860438Why would they make the distinction if it was this big secret? I don't see scientific documents having to clarify that the earth is round and rotating, but they DO make it clear in THIS document. Can you guess why? Maybe because it's not representative of reality and needs to be clarified?
