IF we go again, be assured that the (Millenial) Astronaut wouldn't miss that opportunity !!![biggrin]

Aw,C'mon c'mon SQ. How would he do a selfie? He'd have to be clinging to the junk on the Exterior of the Module & looking over his shoulder..

A tad dangerous I reckon.[biggrin]

Eleven Million Brazilians! Christ, that is a heap of Safety Razors gone to waste.

I wonder if the edge runs horizontally around the equator or vertically from pole to pole?
If it is flat then everything on the maps must be on one side, so there must be an equal area of blank space on the other side.

I reckon the edge is actually the White Cliffs of Dover. You may chuckle, but really, would you want to leap off the top? If you proceed further then what you can see is the Beginning of the New World. Ya know, French, Spanish, Bulgarians, Romanians, Gyppos et al.

The water in between? Are the Floodwaters from uup norf emptying into the Channel so bang goes the Canary Islands.


That's my take on it anyway 3T & it sounds right to me..[biggrin]

May have had some effect on the people who were once known as “red Indians”.

I think the current flat earth theory is, the edge of the world is made of ice, as if you sail any degree off due east west you end up at the (no pun intended) icy poles.

I prefer my theory that everything on our maps is on one side, like on a flat paper map.
So, what's on the other side of the map - a parallel universe? A giant's kitchen table?

That's where the gods live.
Their empty Coke bottles occasionally drift round to this side.

The gods drink coke? They just lost my vote.

Well the gods are vexatious and mercurial creatures according to the classics, so what would one expect?
