If there are aliens, what will they look like?

Inconvenient truth?

If the earth was flat, then all drainages would tend towards the center of mass. There would be one circular ocean that everything poured in to. This is not the case.

You know someone's losing an arguement when they throw down the **** card. Lol. Not to mention refusing to respond to any question that invalidates their opinion.

I think aliens could look like anything but star trek taught me their genitalia will match up with ours...

I haven't tried to do the math to calculate the exact distance, but it would vary, based on the height of the buildings on shore, among other things. I do know from personal experience that the shore disappears in less than 100 miles. I'm guessing you guys have a comeback lined up to explain that?

you guys? What race is that?

Well that's disappointing. I was expecting you to come back with some convoluted justification, but you bring nothing.

No.

Chicago to Pikes Peak is about 1000 miles. A 50 power telescope would make Pikes Peak look like it was 20 miles away.

This is about what it should look like from Chicago, if the Earth was flat, using a 50 power telescope.

Thing about the illustration of perspective is that it leaves out how much longer the line of trees would be with high powered optics. There will still be a vanishing point somewhere there farther away, likely far enough beyond to see only tops of the trees.

Yes, when you're out of sight of land you do navigate to find where you launched and that's what I get when boating on the Great Lakes with 10x50 binos. btw, Haven't seen a meteor impact or aliens yet while navigating but they say there's always a first time.

I longest ***** of any animal now alive, is that of the blue whale. Which has been measured at an average of 8 ft, 2 inches. The tallest person on earth was recorded at 8 Feet, 11 inches.

Now there are some real "truths" that matter to today's society.

I was wondering if that was evidence of a flat earth or a round one...

There is no law of perspective.
