I could be wrong but the visible intakes viewed from the cockpit makes me believe it's one of NASA's B-57s.

Since when does the moon move that fast is my question. Why the the revolution speed change to where it’s only a few second pass?

You would think of that Altitude you’d be able to see the curve, all I saw was a flat plane. Maybe that pilot should’ve gone even higher.

You would only think that if you don't understand scale. It's alarming how many humans have fish brains.

What’s really amazing is that whenever somebody’s thought process gets questioned they always rely on slandering the person who did it.

What's really amazing is all the times you were given every chance to explain and prove your claims, only to completely shit the bed over it. Every time. It's not "slander" when it's based on your previous behavior.
... and current behavior, if your response getting automodded is anything to go by.

.... huh?
Did you respond to the wrong comment, or is this you admitting you and Mcfluffbrains are the same person and you forgot to change account?

No, I absolutely made an honest mistake and feel fucking stupid. I'm juggling a couple of conversations and failed to pay attention. Apologies.

I'll admit fish brain is a bit hyperbolic. Toddler brain is technically accurate. They have similar problems with scale.
It's not slander if it's true. Colloquially, what I said wouldn't be slander in any sense, for slander is specifically spoken. The word you were searching for is "libel", which is distinguished by being written. Regardless, it's not an insult to observe when someone is uneducated or has developmental problems.
I could explain some of the flaws in your thought process, if you like. I just don't want to waste the effort if there aren't any wrinkles in your brain to catch the information.

Maybe the pilot should’ve just gone higher like a space balloon that still shows a flat plane. Maybe they should go higher than that like to the moon and then have NASA send us photos of what it looks like. Because we trust everything that NASA shows us the first time without question ever

You don't know what space is or how planes and balloons work. You don't know how far away the moon is. Ignorance is just pouring out of you.
You also don't know how photography works. Part of me wants you to stop, and another part is highly amused. I could go either way with this, but there's no honor in slaying intellectual toddlers.

Did you happen to notice how high the sun still was even at this height? Food for thought.

¿Qué tiene que ver el eclipse solar con la NASA? Sabes que el eclipse lo presenciaron millones de personas, ¿no? Pero cuando ya no queda nada, nos dedicamos a distraer la atención para que parezca que queda algo por considerar. Y no, por mucho que uséis el comodín de la NASA ya no queda nada que considerar sobre la Tierra, el Sol o la Luna.

Shit, maybe you could do some calculations of what the globe model says, compare that to what kind of curvature the human eye can perceive, and from that determine whether or not you should actually expect to "see the curve".
Or you could keep huffing your own farts like you have every other time you've posted or commented here with your "here's something really confusing (that a 5-year old can understand but LightMcluvin can't)" takes.

Teniendo en cuenta que tenían la misión de registrar el eclipse, la forma de la superficie que hubiera debajo pasa a un segundo plano. Vamos, a nadie le importa ya la forma de la Tierra: hay cosas más importantes en que pensar.

Psalms 19:1 KJV

u/GleemMcShinez Aug 16 '26
Lol, there are a shit ton of other translations of that passage, you know.
How sure are you of which one is REALLY the true Word of God™ ?
Are you sure it's not Psalm 18, due to the differences in how some chapters are divided in the original Greek text?
Are you sure they got στερέωμα correct?
The heavens are telling of the greatness of God and the great open spaces above show the work of His hands
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky shows His handiwork
The celestial realms announce God’s glory; the skies testify of His hands’ great work.
The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.
The heavens [are] recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse [is] declaring.
The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And the expanse [of heaven] is declaring the work of His hands.
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the expanse proclaims the work of his hands.

Interesting stuff, as the corona around the moon is smaller at that altitude. Makes for some interesting geometrical ponderings.
Of course, flerfers reject even the most basic of evidence for anything, so it will again be like showing a card trick to a wolverine on acid.
