Hundreds of Flat-Earthers gather in Denver for international conference

The Flat Earth International Conference has come to Denver. The flat-earthers come to discuss their beliefs with each other and debate the ideas of a flat versus round Earth.

People not so sure the Earth is round have come from around the globe to Denver this week to discuss their beliefs at the Flat Earth International Conference, hosted at the Crowne Plaza Denver Airport Convention Center.

The two-day conference began on Thursday and ends Friday.

Self-described "flat-earthers" believe the Earth's shape has not been proven using the scientific method.

"Scientifically when you go and try to prove the curvature, or the movement, of the Earth - you can't do it," said Robbie Davidson, the founder and organizer of the conference. "There's not one experiment, from Earth, to prove Earth as what we've been taught."

Davidson said he used to believe Earth is round until 2015, when he came across a video making fun of the Flat Earth movement.

"I just started looking into it and, as a Christian, I started looking at the Bible," he said. "Well, why does the Bible say this? So, for me, it was just looking into the evidence."

Flat-earthers also believe, despite evidence to the contrary, that the Earth doesn't rotate. They say everything in the sky moves under a dome or firmament.

"I take a biblical mindset the fact that the firmament divided the waters from the waters, so that the sun, moon, and stars are inside the firmament - so it placed the sun, moon, and stars in the firmament on day four, after the Earth - so how do you have the Earth created first and then the sun, moon and stars?" Davidson questioned.

NASA put out a press release last year about "uh, sorry but there is some man made barrier having something to do with global warming that is now preventing us from going to space"... LOL

Still waiting for you to show me ANYTHING that this is even close to being true. Just you stating something doesn't make it a fact and I can't find anything on the entire internet to show that this was ever said. Did you just make it up along with everything else?

[Reily]

Don’t worry I am sure Q will Q-splain it!

[DouglasKC]

They were setting up the shot in a video studio, and adjusting for lighting with the chromakey and somehow this video got released publicly. No conspiracy, just old-fashioned tech fact. LOL!

Nope. Still conspiracy. Still nutty.

On Von Braun, it’s nice to know the Lord can convert a disgusting Nazi. But where is Von Braun’s testimony of how he came out of occultic Nazism?

The only other Nazi conversion story I know of was the Nazi who finally repented, the one who put Corrie Ten Boom’s sister to death... forty years later.

[Sontagged]

Nope... just a lighting test for their Chromakey... Big Head is not an astronaut, just some tech working in their TV studio.

[Sontagged]

Oh, it’s there. It was released in April 2017, right after NASA’s release of their positions on the Paris Accords and the problems of Climate Change...

I can’t recall if NASA discussed their love of Islam in those releases, but they did go on, and on, and on about Climate Change.

Where is it? Give me a link. I can't find it. You can't just say it's there and NOT give me any proof. I don't want people to think you're a liar.

[DouglasKC]

Or an astronaut filming it through the shuttle window. Or an employee converting the video to 16MM film. Or a news person recording it off a monitor at a press conference. There's much simpler explanations then it's a fake and millions of people are in on it and nobody has ever spilled the beans for 60 years.

" The simple answer is that there are TONS of photos of the earth from space dating back from the 1960's. You just think they're all fake..."

NASA admitted they are all fake here as well as all over the internet...

please do some actual research:

NASA GUY WHO CREATED EARTH IMAGES FOR THE IPHONE ADMITS THEY ARE NOT REAL

https://qz.com/192700/the-guy-who-created-iphones-earth-image-explains-why-he-needed-to-fake-it/

From the article:

"As realistic as it looks, the image is a composite of four months of light data collected in 2,300 km (1,429 mi) wide bands as NASA’s Terra satellite orbited from pole to pole, and the earth rotated beneath it.

That data was then stitched together and applied to the surface of a digital ball, then modified in Photoshop..."

Which begs a question... how did the "blue marble earth" image from Apollo 11 get created? It looks exactly like the iPhone photoshops!

https://www.lpi.usra.edu/lunar/missions/apollo/apollo_17/photography/

From the article on lunar photography... Apollo 17 "photograph" of the earth. Again not real.

"This full-disk view (from Apollo 17) encompasses much of the South Atlantic Ocean, virtually all the Indian Ocean, Antarctica, Africa, a part of Asia, and, on the horizon, Indonesia and the western edge of Australia."

LOL.

Didn’t I already correct you?

NASA FAKING SPACE BADLY 1983 (Big Head In Space Vid) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pVm7p4nkwo

The Big Head guy’s head couldn’t have been a reflection in a “window” or off a monitor... the image does not reflect off the entire white plastic “shuttle” model...

The image of the big guy’s head only can be seen off a mirrored sticker or blue colored parts of the white plastic shuttle.

This is a chromakey lighting problem in a TV studio.

Using a white plastic model of the “shuttle”.

NASA admitted they are all fake here as well as all over the internet...

lol...sure they did. This is just you once again not understanding technology.

Number 1 any shot from a NEAR satellite isn't going to be able to take in the whole earth. They're way too close. Imagine putting your camera right next to an orange and trying to take a picture. You're going to only get a section of the orange. Luckily you can take several pictures an combine them. NO mystery. Just you not realizing the size of the earth and the orbit of MOST satellites.

However there are now at least two satellites that are FAR out there and they can and do send regular pictures of the whole earth from space. EPIC is one of the satellites.

The shot of the earth, the big blue marble, is from one of the Apollo missions..far enough out to get the shot.

Do you see what you're doing? You reject rational explanations in order to promulgate irrational conspiracy theories. You're not even putting any type of critical thinking or original thought. You're simply regurgitating other people's nutty ideas.

Oh, there are plenty of later NASA articles blaming the “barrier” in space on... human wifi usage... or something contributing to the Van Allen Belt (LOL) barrier in space.

But this one particularly tried to link Climate Change to the “barrier in space”.

Remember, NASA not only was staffed by Nazis back in the day, it is an Islam loving, Climate Change loving, Paris Accord promoting Leftist, Liberal institution.

It’s odd how you are so insistent on defending a liberal organization like NASA on FR.

Actually it does and I've seen it now over a dozen times. The link I gave earlier to the video with better resolution shows this. I suspect the conspiracy nuts use to like the lower resolution video because it's not as clear.

You made statement that NASA put out a press release that they couldn't go into space anymore because of a barrier cause by global warming. WHERE IS THE PRESS RELEASE???? Give me SOME evidence that you just didn't invent this as well as every other nutty theory you've put on here.

Right. NASA has admitted there has never been a real photograph of earth taken from space.

Which begs the question... why are they saying in this article, that the Apollo 17 fake earth is a realtime photograph?

LOL.

Here is the article with the fake image

LOL again.

[DouglasKC]

Right. NASA has admitted there has never been a real photograph of earth taken from space.

No, they didn't. They take photographs just like you do with your phone. ALL THE TIME. Do you think they have film in the satellites and then go up there to change the film every so often?

[Sontagged]

LOL. They said it. I'll find it. Calm down... remember NASA's just another lib mouthpiece.

What do you expect from a liberal lying organization?

Now, will you finally admit that NASA really recruited Nazis back in the day? You know the Nazis that got out of the Nuremberg Trials?

And the problem is NASA has said they've never taken a real photograph of the earth from Space... And surely you've seen the crop and paste sloppy fakery of the Apollo 11 "earth photo"... right? See NASA forgot that the earth would be HUGE in the shot from Apollo 11. The "cut and paste" aspect of the fakery has been long exposed...

[Sontagged]

Is Q also involved with NASA? Wouldn’t surprise me, though I’m friends with some who drink the “Q”aid.

[Sontagged]

Nice try... but any computer geek can rebuild old computer tech....really fast. It’s just a matter of what you need to accomplish.

You just translate the mechanical analog aspects into digital. Not that hard. What is so difficult about making modern thrusters, etc?

Just remember, NASA is a lying liberal organization, they are Statists.

Are you serious??? You seriously can't tell JUST by looking that the one on the right is taken from WAY back and ZOOMED WAY IN??? And the one on the left is taken from closer and not zoomed in? It's different perspective for crying out loud. How stupid would these mythical conspirators have to be?? You're saying they regularly fake ALL pictures from space but they're too stupid to get this right??
