> If the earth was flat I would be able to the east coast of America from the west coast of Ireland. No, you wouldn’t. It’s optically impossible because with the added density of the air in between those two locations it would be like trying to look through an opaque wall. Our atmosphere is basically thin water... at a great distance it obscures things from view. Globetards actually make retarded statements like the above and then wonder why flat Earthers are a thing.
