Dedicated flat earthers have elaborate explanations for everything, including why ships appear to disappear when they sail away from the viewer, photographs of the earth from space, and time zones.
They have especial trouble explaini ...[text shortened]... or a laugh to read their web site and their forum posts. de ja vu some of the posts here at SF !

You can see some of the zero gravity experiments that show a length of time much greater than you can ever achieve with the vomit comet. Like the water wringing rag experiment done recently by that Canadian astronaut, Chris Hatfield.

If you haven't seen it, watch it, very entertaining. For instance, try having an unsupported microphone floating in front of you. But watch the water wringing experiment.

What is really weird is there still is a flat earth society.
I would like to hear THEIR response as to why you can't see people or boats at eye level for more than a 6 miles where they disappear below the horizon.
Don't see how they can account for that fact in their fantasy world.

Nice drawing, but it looks like the water is all falling off the edge. Where is the replacement water coming from? Also, what does the turtle eat, drink or breathe for that matter? And what happens to the poop? More planets?
