One of their main arguments was that if the Earth was spinning the water would fall off. Specifically, they are ignorant of gravitational pull. McIntyre said that he attended a Flat Earth convention back in 2018 and actually heard someone bragging about the spirit level ‘experiment.’ McIntyre said: “They are to be commended for actually trying to test their hypothesis, but of course they don’t understand at all how science actually works.
As you’ll see there was no measurable compensation for curvature,” he said.īored Panda wanted to learn more about why so many people fall for conspiracy theories like the Flat Earth Theory and how to debate those who believe in it, so we reached out to Lee McIntyre, a published author and a Research Fellow at the Center for Philosophy and History of Science at Boston University.
According to curvature math given to explain the globe model, this should have resulted in the compensation of 5 miles of curvature. “I recorded a 23 minute and 45 seconds time-lapse, which by those measurements means the plane traveled a little over 203 miles.
