They have been answered, but your LD makes you unable to realize it. Your current question shows that you are unable to grasp the simple answers, as you and I have gone over the same principle earlier. So, why are you back here?
So if somebody sits in class and does not believe in the made up cure all called gravity that contradicts the natural laws of water and inertia, then they have a learning disability right? Fact, water always finds its own level. Fact: centrifugal force causes things to get spun off. Take a look at the spin cycle of your washing machine.

That's interesting. What leads you to believe that you have made any progress or are waking anyone up? It seems exactly the opposite to me. Please link to the responses that have given you this idea. Thanks...

Edit - Btw, the Earth in your video doesn't seem to be rotating because the jumpers craft is rotating at approximately the same speed, creating the illusion that both are stationary...
This simple experiment disproves your hypothesis. Anyone can do this. Get on a bike, take a tennis ball with you. As you are speeding along, toss the ball into the air. The ball will fly along with the bike for a brief moment, but the initial inertia of the ball will dissipate and the ball will fall behind you. The ball does not keep moving along with the bike while in the air.

Yes, but do you believe that video is legitimate?

EDIT:

Why can't you see further than Chicago?
Because there is nothing left big enough to see. It is a flat plane and the suburbs beyond Chicago are small two story buildings. As I said the eye can only see so far. Remember on a ball earth Chicago should be below the viewers horizon from across the lake.

What are you trying to prove/disprove here?

Try the same experiment inside a cabin on a moving boat. Or on a bus. Or in a plane. Or in a train. Or in your mom's car. What separates all those test conditions from the conditions when riding a bike outside?

That is a photo taken from the park across the lake 60 miles away.
We're talking about this video you posted:

So tell me, why is the earth not rotating in this video that seems to be at the same height as the space station?

One last time - is this video legitimate?

thats bullshit.. you can still see that far, you might not be able to make out what youre looking at.. but youll still see it. find some actual research telling me you can only see so far.

You keep avoiding this, so I'll keep posting it until I get an answer - What leads you to believe that you have made any progress or are waking anyone up? It seems exactly the opposite to me. Please link to the responses that have given you this idea. Thanks...

Is the subject of the experiment inside or outside? He is outside. So your suggestion to do the experiment inside would invalidate the experiment.

Mainly the hate. People get pissy when their world view is challenged. Cognitive dissonance is painful.

So, because you are hated, this is proof to you that you are making a difference and getting through to people? Do you think it's possible that people hate you for other reasons, and you are deceiving yourself that it is because you are a great teacher?
