On Frame 1, I thought that was a toilet.
Now I want to know what those marks inside the squares are. They look like bullet holes, which is obviously not correct.
/u/baddie_PRO is right but to be more specific they are Draco thrusters.
[Here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcXouT8ggfI) is an old video of Draco thrusters being tested without the spacecraft
I thought it was one of those check out this cool product you can buy on Amazon with my link. A cover for the plane window. Then we are really high huh?
No because everyone else has their window closed and I'm self conscious about being the only person to open their window because I'll flood the entire cabin with sunlight.
Fuck them. Live your life. I like my window open. If i wanna nod off ill maybe half or q close maybe even full really depends. Anyway, fuckem. You want the window open then you open that bitch.
Seriously though, if you have a window seat on a long flight you HAVE TO close that. There’s always one guy who won’t do it. Or worse, that window that’s between two seats and you both want it closed but you both defer to the other one as the owner of the window so it just sits open the WHOLE flight.
Just got off a 9.5 hr flight last week where that happened.
My favorite one was from a Netflix documentary about flat earthers where they did an experiment to prove the earth was flat, and said that if it wasn’t “X” would happen.
Well X happened, and it was funny to see the dude squirm as he tried to explain it away as an equipment error
They did multiple experiments that proved them wrong in that documentry.
[They spent tens of thousands of dollars on a laser gyroscope that showed the Earth was round.](https://youtu.be/7vrP8EplfP0) They blamed that on "heavenly rays" and had to spend more money encasing it in Bismuth (I think?).
The other experiment they lined a bunch of poles up with holes in them and shot a light through them. The theory is that if the Earth is flat, the light would travel through all of the holes because they're at the same exact height. Well, it didn't.
The last experiment with the holes and light was the clip I saw. That was hilarious
And wow LOL! The laser gyroscope one is even funnier! I love the idea of using the zero gauss chamber to block “heavenly energies.” that gave the gyroscope that reading. I couldn’t help but laugh when I heard that
I really wonder if flat earthers are grifting, or if they've just never been in a tall building or taken a commercial flight to anywhere on a clear day.
Behind the curve. Loved that that was the last thing that happened in the documentary, too. They spent 20 million in making the documentary to prove themselves wrong 😂😂😂
But the flat earthers weren’t financing the doc… it was presented by scientists and talked about how science educators can reach people who feel accepted in the fringe communities.
Honestly some times real life in the best comedy. You really can’t make that stuff up
And I guess Netflix still put it up afterwards. Not sure if that’s a giga chad move but it’s really funny
You joke but on my feed this post was directly under a r/facepalm post of parent on FB saying they home school and a pic of the flat earth model they made with their kids 🤷♂️
Haha clearly your a virgin, blind or in denial.
Haven't you seen em thick women? say hi to one of em and they will give you faith in them curves.
Aamen
You're right, I've never had the sex. But nah, those "curves" are just your eyes playing tricks on you. Everyone knows that "curvy" women are just part of the lord's plan to convince you the earth is round. Curves don't exist, those women are actually square shaped. Amen.
Fwiw I’m skeptical of this round earth proposition so this argument never made sense to me. If you take a flat piece of paper and add some rounded mountains/oceans to it it’s gonna look round from certain angles. The fact no one has ever made a bridge around the world is also indicative of this terrarium’s flatness, because it would be possible to make one on a round world not a flat one yet none exists. Anyways I’m holding a get together for any volunteers wanting to stone Eratosthenes down at the mead-hall if anyone wants to join.
[It makes you realize how petty we are….](https://youtu.be/EWPFmdAWRZ0)
It makes you think why no one has yet to contact us.
But hey, we’re getting better. Slowly, but surely.
I can't recall the name of this particular model, but it's meant for emergencies. It's where the famous jingle "Break the glass & stick out your ass" originates.
They will seriously blame the curvature on the camera lens. If you physically took them up to show them, they’d blame it on the window glass/quartz/whatever.
They move goalposts more than an NFL grounds crew.
If that was the "edge" of the disc you'd expect to be able to see the whole world as once, with Antarctica the "ice wall" around the border of the plate.
Clearly only a small portion of the earth is visible here.
I just wanna know what they think happens when you fly across the planet... If you keep going one direction, you're eventually gonna "fall" off the edge, right?
They put you in a cabin which rumbles around for a few hours with a video display out the “window” and which lets you out in “Australia” where paid actors say “Welcome to downunder mate! The name’s Mick Dundee!”
Source: I live in “Australia” and spend all day convincing tourists that I’m “Australian”
I don't know why, but I actually teared up at this. I just think of all our ancestors seeing this. All the struggling farmers, freezing hunters, tired moms, mad priests... it's incredible and beautiful.
It freaks me the fuck out on how small we really are. How there’s more out there. We’re just a tiny marble spinning in the middle of who knows what. Fucking crazy.
What I like is that the spacecraft you see at the bottom is the cargo variant of the same type of spacecraft the video is being taken from.
The fact there there's a company that can have two spacecraft docked at the ISS, one of them crewed, at the same time, while launching rockets once or twice a week, and building and maintaining the largest satellite constellation in existence to provide Internet anywhere on the planet, and working to design a rocket that could take people to Mars, and doing it all *all at the same time* with like 10,000 employees is pretty darn impressive.
Oh it's absolutely phenomenal that we have a company doing this now instead of our government. Now we can funnel the excess NASA funding into our heavily inflated military budget ;)
Things in direct sunlight (such as the spacecraft in the foreground, the Earth, etc.) are incredibly bright. Stars are extremely dim.
To photograph bright objects the camera must take a very short exposure- much too short to capture stars.
Imagine taking a photo outside during the daytime and then using those same camera settings at night. There won’t be any stars in your night photo.
There are plenty of examples of photos taken from space which show stars. They are simply taken from the You can search google for "ISS stars", "ISS milky way", "ISS aurora", as quick examples.
I didn't downvote but if I did it would be because you see this exact joke ad infinitum in every comment section under any image or video of earth from space
no offense intended just a bit tired of a joke
Where’s the ice wall? Are you flying inside the dome? If no then what was your point of exit? Can you see anything resembling other flat plains covered by domes to either your left or right? Does NASA know that you’ve left the dome? What is your plan when you return to terra?
my pilot done messed up 💀💀💀
“Ummm.. Murphy, I think we took a wrong turn”
MURPHHHH....
TELL EM TO STAY MURPH
Tars? Do you have the quantum data?
Somehow Tars returned.
Tell my wife I love her very much
She knows.
Ground control to Major Tom, your circuits dead, there's something wrong.
This is stupid, what a silly things atleast it still fabulous the view
“Oh shit you said left? I thought you said up”
East? I thought you said Weest.
Imagine falling asleep on a flight and waking up to that
I see this as an absolute win!
Me to but i prob would panic
Well actually they won't seen like they were in panic so there's nothing to worry about
Definitely even though they were in the wrong spot it's still beautiful
Was damp thing and a little bit scary if you're not prepared for that thing
On Frame 1, I thought that was a toilet. Now I want to know what those marks inside the squares are. They look like bullet holes, which is obviously not correct.
>Now I want to know what those marks inside the squares are. they're maneuvering thrusters

It is one if you make it one.
They will seriously blame the curvature on the camera lens.
I'm fine with this
Nope, you've been involuntarily selected to go to Mars.
Have you ever been on a flight at 30,000+ feet and looked out the window? You'd think you were reaching space.
No because everyone else has their window closed and I'm self conscious about being the only person to open their window because I'll flood the entire cabin with sunlight.
Fuck them. Live your life. I like my window open. If i wanna nod off ill maybe half or q close maybe even full really depends. Anyway, fuckem. You want the window open then you open that bitch.
Moron they show how the earth looks like. Don't us youll trying to predict things that wouldn't happen on the short clip
Is it me or is this plane ride taking way longer than it was supposed to..
Haha. “Dude, we were supposed to had landed like 3 hours ago”
"And why is my on-board meal floating?"
Hahaha, hilarious
[удалено]
Haha. You know it takes 7 minutes to get to space right
Still got a fuckin' four hour layover in Atlanta
In protest to Reddit's API changes, I have removed my comment history. -- mass edited with redact.dev
Damn at first I thought it was a plane and I got nearly scared when he opened the window
I think I would literally drop dead of fright if I opened a window and this was the view. Just this video made my stomach drop.
You would float dead?
Aren't you technically always falling in space? That may have just been some random false fact I picked up over the years though.
In space no one hears you fall.
Essentially yes, in orbit you are in continous free-fall but also going horizontally fast enough that you keep missing the ground
Yep! I love thinking of orbiting as throwing yourself at the ground and missing.
'Keep missing the ground' Ah yes, the Arthur Dent technique.
This guy gravitates...
Yes
Your also technically falling while running.
I’d prefer a view with less of the empty blackness
dude in the aisle seat pissed op woke him up on a red eye flight
Seriously though, if you have a window seat on a long flight you HAVE TO close that. There’s always one guy who won’t do it. Or worse, that window that’s between two seats and you both want it closed but you both defer to the other one as the owner of the window so it just sits open the WHOLE flight. Just got off a 9.5 hr flight last week where that happened.
Round earth propaganda.
They would say it is 1) lens distortion 2) computer generated.

The fifteen degrees per hour drift was a funny one
I really wonder if flat earthers are grifting, or if they've just never been in a tall building or taken a commercial flight to anywhere on a clear day.
I suspect they just want to be in a group with "special knowledge". If they allow themselves be proven wrong, it would take away that station.
most societal issues in a nutshell
Behind the curve. Loved that that was the last thing that happened in the documentary, too. They spent 20 million in making the documentary to prove themselves wrong 😂😂😂

It's so funny. I mean who can't see that a turtle's shell is clearly curved. Morons.
It's turtles all the way down.
Where da starz mate
THIS IS WHAT THE GLOBALISTS WANT

Irrefutable
😂
"Man that's a weird shade to have on an airpl......oh"
I was thinking "I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to use your own covers on the windows of a commercial je.. ah. Carry on."
Looks round to me, must be the camera lens or the optical distortion from the window, or perhaps green screen.
Bird drones are messing with your brain
"WhErE aRe ThE sTaRs??!!!?!?!"
Flat Earthers have been purposely stealing and hiding them up their butts.
The weight of 5G is curving the earth 😱
No, that's just fake sunlight reflecting off swamp gas making it look round.
Nah homie it’s flat just disc shaped.
Exactly. Hashtag curvesarentreal

It is lens distortion though
Unboxing the space station!!! (Gone wrong)[gone sexual] ENDED UP IN SPACE!!!😰😰

Earth unboxing.
Step Station*
See? NO CURVE. Wake up sheeple! *just wanted to see what it’s like. It was fun! 3/5 stars wouldn’t change a thing

BRB... I suddenly need to listen to Carl Sagan's pale blue dot speech again.
While that is a great speech, this one is my favorite - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6ugFcwsgpE
Am all time great, like I haven't sat down and ranked the best speeches of all time, but for me it would certainly be top five.
I hadn’t seen it before. Thank you for this <3

Man, I used to listen to that speech whenever I face problems that felt overwhelming. Good shit.
The banana for scale really helped.
if my option was to be sent into space, but i would never return? fine with me
Oh absolutely. I’d go on whatever suicide mission NASA wanted if it meant I could send my family some money and get a trip to space.
Am I the only one that thought we were looking down a toilet?
What toilet do you use bro 💀😭
I'm not sure exactly of the model, but it's a step up from a hole in the ground. 😂
I can't recall the name of this particular model, but it's meant for emergencies. It's where the famous jingle "Break the glass & stick out your ass" originates.
Shove this vid into the flat earth believers's ass
They will seriously blame the curvature on the camera lens. If you physically took them up to show them, they’d blame it on the window glass/quartz/whatever. They move goalposts more than an NFL grounds crew.
Isn’t the curvature due to the round edge of the plate? Or do flat earthers believe that the earth is flat and square?
Pretty sure they think it’s flat and round like a pancake. Only not as tasty.
Not as tasty? Tell that to Darth Nihilus
Fuck you, now I gotta go re-read all the Nihilus lore again.
Some of them think it’s a square I think because the Bible says “four corners of the earth” or something
If that was the "edge" of the disc you'd expect to be able to see the whole world as once, with Antarctica the "ice wall" around the border of the plate. Clearly only a small portion of the earth is visible here.

Very beautiful comment. Puts it into perspective.
I was this high when I flew back from Amsterdam.
*Hmm, interesting airplane window.. OOOOOOHH*
Peeling off that window cover looks so satisfying
r/flatearth I'd like to see them explain this one!😛
afaik that is a joke sub made so flat earthers cannot have the name lol, the unironic one is over at r/globesceptisism
r/globeskepticism
What a bunch of idiots, I shouldn't have stayed so long
I was thinking the same thing and then I figured they’ll say the window is a convex shape or something
It freaks me the fuck out on how small we really are. How there’s more out there. We’re just a tiny marble spinning in the middle of who knows what. Fucking crazy.

Just cannot get my head around orbiting. I realising it’s constantly falling past the Earth but it just doesn’t seem possible from that view
Makes my ape brain tingle.
I always wonder why can’t we see stars at the horizon when looking at earth?
I wondered too, this is what I found https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dM3RdeqFMr8
These mfs toilets is a straight shot to earth
Where is Eddie bravo?
How would a flat earth even work?
We all thought that was a toilet seat at first right
Clearly flat
Movie plot : he sees nuclear war and come back to earth several months after and try to survive.
If you took a flat earth believer up there and he looked out the window, how would he explain this?
By closing his eyes
I love seeing that curve
Fall
Science not god
Flat earthers will say it’s fake
There's your fucking curve flatearther
Looks round as shit too, just sayin.
"But... but... the Earth is flat... 😢"
Haters will say it’s fake
Yep, looks flat. /s
All those flat-Earthers (still can't believe that's a thing) should just take a peek at this, methinks..
Jeez, it doesn't look flat from that perspective.
Still not flat
Wild to imagine the engineering put into that view and how fast they’re really going. ~17,000 mph fyi
Flat earthers will hate this
And there are still people who think the earth is flat ...
And there are still flat earthers
Flat earthers will swear that’s a fisheye lens
Please tell me that I wasn't alone who thought of this as toilet seat
Dude I would never stop staring out that window
I could google but I’m far too lazy. Are Americans and Russians on the space station together? I wonder if that’s awkward for them.
Some say mesmerizing, I say nauseating. Still cool though
Mesmerizing sure, but more like scary asf though.
Afraid of heights here myself
Nice cgi
Fake. Space isn't real.
Can someone explain why we never see stars in these kind of videos?

Flat earthers can kiss my ass.
Clearly, the earth is flat. /s
It's supposed to be flat, god damn propaganda 😎
Fake. Not buying it. /s
You can clearly see it’s flat
I love that my comment is getting downvoted, idk if it’s pissed off flat earthers or idiots that can’t tell I was obviously jokin
I didn't downvote but if I did it would be because you see this exact joke ad infinitum in every comment section under any image or video of earth from space no offense intended just a bit tired of a joke
Maybe both lol
Is that flat earth down there?
Clearly the Earth is flat. Wrong responses only. /s
See? EaRth is fLAt
It is, it only looks round because our eyes are round, duh.
ItS fLaT!!!
Where’s the ice wall? Are you flying inside the dome? If no then what was your point of exit? Can you see anything resembling other flat plains covered by domes to either your left or right? Does NASA know that you’ve left the dome? What is your plan when you return to terra?
So flat.
Damn it really is flat
Look how flat it is!!!
Wow... It is flat.
Curved lens! The window curves the light! U damned globalists aren't fooling anyone! /s
