Problem is the brain washing has gone beyond what most people can even imagine. No matter how many videos show the earth being vastly different then what NASA tells them it doesn't matter.

Re: LONG-LOST GOPRO FOUND AFTER FALLING FROM THE EDGE OF SPACE
The "edge" of space is 80 miles, not 30 miles.

And you must not grasp the size of the ball we live on if you think you can see any noticable curvature from 30 miles up.

That is a flea on a basketball trying to see curvature.

You will probably start seeing noticable curvature at around 300 miles up but that still would be a fly on a basketball relatively speaking.

looked down and became the first man to behold the curvature of the earth. Kit Murray set an unofficial altitude record that day - 90,000 feet

Kit flight tested the X-1A and X-1B, the X-4, the X-5,[2] and also flew the XF-92A.[3] In the X-1A, Kit set altitude records of over 90,000 feet[4] and was considered at the time, 1954, America’s first space pilot. He was the first to see the curvature of the earth and the sky dark at mid-day

Fine.

Imagine the Earth is a ball with a diameter of one meter.
The actual diameter is 12,742,000 meters.

17 miles is 27.36 km or 27360 meters

That pilot would have been floating 27360 / 12,742,000 = 0.0021472 meters above that ball or 0.21472 millimeters above the surface of that 1 meter ball.

Do you stil think he could have seen any curvature?

Re: LONG-LOST GOPRO FOUND AFTER FALLING FROM THE EDGE OF SPACE
With all the satellites we've launched you figure we would have more time lapse photos of the world. Too bad there aren't any. It's funny how many people can't actually accept the biggest lie/conspiracy that we've ever been told, that would literally collapse society if to be proven "true". It's almost like an Atheist won't listen to anything a Christian says, or vice-versa, because it discredits everything they believe.

Relatively speaking.

ISS
350km altitude = 350,000 meters = 350,000 / 12,742,000 = 0.0274682 meters = 2.74682 millimeters above the ball.

Geosynchronous orbits
42,164km altitude = 42,164,000 meters = 42,164,000 / 12,742,000 = 3.31 meters away from the 1 meter ball.

Matches the perspective in the pictures taken from those sattelites.

The "edge" of space is 80 miles, not 30 miles.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70179828


How did they measure the weather balloon's altitude?

It seems the highest they reached was 98,000ft before the balloon burst and the camera dropped down back to Earth.

What was it that made the balloon burst at that altitude, not before or after?

I need to look at how high up the Red Bull Stratos/Felix Baumgartner reached before he made his free fall jump.

Good thing the Earth is round or else it would look like NASA is launching "satellites" at other countries. By the responses, people aren't use to arguing about this. 1+1=2, and the Earth is round (except for a long time ago when we were dumb, and we thought the Earth was still flat). Those are the very first things we are taught.

The lack of atmospheric pressure at a certain altitude will make the balloon expand beyond the limits of the fabric.

It can probably be calculated give or take a few hundred meters.
