Ok first please don't jumped down my throat or start cursing at me and calling me names.

Now, I'm trying to figure things out. I'm not Pro Flat Earth or Against Flat Earth right now. I'm just trying to better understand.

1. Has anyone in history ever went to Russia and traveled 'only' West and ended up in Asia?

2. Is the sun suppose to be inside the atmosphere or in actual space with the FE Theory?

3. Are there any photos that aren't edited by NASA that have been found to prove the FE theory?

All of this information I just found out is amazing. I just would like to know more and gather all ideas, theories, and facts.

Thank you for answering in advance.

1. People have flown clear around the planet starting at one point, going one direction, and ending up in the same proving earth is round.

2. Not even flatearthers believe the sun is inside the atmosphere.

3. There are no photos that give proof for FE. Just about every nation have their own spaceagency that has sent satellites in orbit completely independent of NASA. Who would spend their entire lives doctoring all those photos just to discredit the flatearthers?

The flat earth theory is a complete impossibility.

This is the second question that you have posted about the same theme. I find amazing that you or anybody else can believe at this point that there are some possibility of the Earth being flat. As Doug said, when you are in a plane you can appreciate that the horizon is circle-shaped (unless there are mountains or similar geographic accidents around). But you don't need to be in a plane, it's pretty obvious if you pay attention. These were the facts that did some people realise about the Earth being not flat. And nowadays, that you can see lots of Earth's pictures you can prove this in a quite easy way. In fact, if you think that other planets look quite sphaerical, don't you think that it would be really funny that the Earth would have a different shape?

I really don't understand what you are trying to find out, sorry

About 100 years ago the Russians built a railway from Moscow clear across European Russia, across Siberia and to Vladivostok on the North Pacific Ocean. There are branch lines that run down through Mongolia and end up in Beijing, which is the capital of China. Is China Asian enough for you?

You can get on a train in London, take the Channel Tunnel to France by train, more train to Berlin or points north and east, then other or the same trains to Moscow or at least to Russia.
Since the Trans-Siberian Railway and other Russian railways are on a 5 foot gauge, you will have to change trains at least once along the way from the standard 4'8.5" used elsewhere.

Or if you like you can drive a car all the way from London to Beijing or Shanghai if the Chinese will let you into the country and you don't get into a wreck with a drunken Russian driver or a Chinese truck driver first.

The ancient Greeks knew the Earth was spherical about 2300 years ago. They also knew about how big it was. They did their calculations with straightforward geometry and trigonometry.

(Columbus did not prove the world was round, everyone but the pig-ignorant knew that in 1492.)

Sweet Heart.......
When you get up around 60 to 70 thousand feet (12 to 14 miles) in an airplane, you can -see- the curvature of the horizon. I know, because I've been there ☺

Flat Earthers have flat foreheads.

I don't believe there are any flat earth believers.
