CA –
Thomas Wilkinson, 29, of Palo Alto has been a senior developer at Google for seven years. He in in charge of strategy and operations at Google Earth. Leading a team of 10 engineers, Wilkinson is tasked with overseeing the general functions of the Google Earth software.
Last week Wilkinson Tweeted a post that echoed undertones of flat earth conspiracy: “Everything in this world is theory. From black holes to the roundness of the earth.” His post raised eyebrows in the tech world, but it wasn’t until this morning that his peers’ suspicions were confirmed following his most recent post denouncing modern science, Google, and NASA.
“As a lead Google developer for over seven years it is my responsibility to finally address our terrestrial landscape”
He linked to his blog in which he stated “After years of diligent study and intent work I have concluded there is no way the world can be spherical. Given how our data at Google has never matched up to NASA’s data, and given how modern technology simply cannot measure the magnitude of such a planet, we can never really be guaranteed the earth is spherical. The truth is, this idea is so ingrained in our culture that no one questions it. Well, I’m questioning it.”
Following his tweet and blog post, Google suspended Wilkinson to handle the situation internally.

Hmmmm I don't know but i believe the Truth is out there. I don't trust NASA one bit.
let’s assume that the Earth is not spherical (and humans are not gullible) that means all the mass of oceans, rivers, mountains, vehicles machines, animals and humans is being supported by a flat plate like structure. Oh and let’s also suppose that gravity is bullshit that means moon doesn’t play any roles in making tides and what not.
Now let’s move beyond Earth and see the solar/lunar eclipse with some sort of camera/telescope what did you find? Yep that’s right they’re all spherical.
Now comes the day/night part of earth is flat how do you explain the phenomenon of night and day?
The moon seems round but only ever seen one side of the moon
And? Does this prove that moon is flat too
