A few year back, there was a Netflix documentary about flat earther. They’ve done a couple of experiment to prove that the earth is flat which (Spoiler alert) demonstrated that the earth is round.

So now that these persons have demonstrated scientifically that the earth is round. How are they doing ? Still flat-earther ? or did they give up with the amount of evidence they collected ?

    he decided the experiment was flawed and needed to be refined.

    Ah yes, the scientific method:

    • Make an observation or ask a question
    • Gather background information
    • Create a hypothesis
    • Create a prediction and perform a test
    • Analyze the results and draw a conclusion
    • Share the conclusion or decide what question to ask next Discard the experiment if it doesn’t support your preconceptions
