Paul doesn’t define what the bottom image represents, but it probably doesn’t represent all of the planes in the air at the same time; so they all wouldn’t show up in a photo.
It may be a graphic showing the plane travel for a day.
Do we really think that the tiny lights of an airplane are going to show up on a photo from the ISS?
Do we really want to see them if they did?
Just another nonsensical meme from a flat earther, with no proof. Ugh!
Honestly, I think people like Paul Raines are trolls, who offer ridiculous explanations; to see who will like them, and to make flat earthers look bad.

Notice how he didn’t make the line the full width of the photo, which is totally misleading.
I enlarged and lightened up the bottom image with Photoshop, to be able to see the horizon line on the left side. Then I put a red line next to the horizon line, and we can see curvature.
It’s amazing to me that flat earthers post pictures from airplanes and proclaim that the horizon is flat, and all I had to do was put a straight line next to the horizon, and you can see the curve of the Earth.
On this photo over the U.K., the white line is level with the horizon in the middle left, and there is obvious curvature on both the left and right side.
On this one the red line is level with the horizon to the right of the airplane support beam, and the left and right side of the horizon curved down.
On this one the red line is even with the horizon on the left and right sides, and the horizon is raised up in the middle.
On this one the red line is level on the left side and on the right side the horizon drops down.

The premise of the meme is that they used to have bad dreams about falling from a building; but now that they believe that the Earth is flat, they don’t have those dreams anymore.
Does the flat earth not have buildings to fall from? 😛
The whole premise of this flat earth meme is nonsensical!

Ugh! Flat earthers have no common sense! Seriously, isn’t the answer obvious?
It’s because fiber optic cable transmit data at a much faster rate than satellite transmissions, and satellite data transfer can be interrupted by weather.
The irony is that flat earthers ignore services such as HughesNet, which provide internet access to people in remote locations, where there are no towers. Read Satellites Prove The Flat Earth Deception
In the Official Flat Earth vs Globe Earth Biblical Discussion Facebook group, BJ Painter posted this video, saying “Best video ever right here !!”
BJ Painter was asked, “shouldn’t the narrator of the video be applying the math to the circumference of the Earth, not the diameter? The 2,400 miles should be compared to the curved 12,280 miles (half of the circumference), not to the straight-line diameter of 7,926 miles.
Here’s a image from the video that has been updated to show the Earth’s circumference line, which should have been used in his calculation.
BJ Painter replied with, “These are nasa figures”; as if that answered the question.
BJ Painter then commented, “But you dont have to believe me, I dont mind if your stupid.”
The irony! He’s calling people stupid when he doesn’t know how to put an apostrophe in the word don’t, and he used ‘your’ instead of ‘you’re’.
BJ Painter then commented, “The world needs stupid folks obviously.”
Rodney Phillips commented, “And BJ Painter , being one of the “smart ppl” , still not familiar with elevation.”
Daniel Hurd commented, “BJ Painter, the only thing this post and videos are really showing is that you don’t understand what you are arguing against. You are coming to your own conclusions and then arguing against them when the others are telling you that your conclusion are completely wrong.”
Instead of seeing that the narrator of the video is mistaken in comparing the 2,400 miles to the straight-line diameter of the Earth, instead of the curved circumference; he attacks and mocks people.
It’s pretty easy to see why he believes in the flat earth theory. Ugh!
The sad part is that the description of the Official Flat Earth vs Globe Earth Biblical Discussion Facebook group says,
If you are looking for a safe environment to discuss the Flat Earth vs Globe Earth from a biblical perspective…look no further! Join NOW!
Safe from what? Someone can’t even ask a legitimate question about the math in the video without being mocked? Fail!
In the video, the narrator says that water is flat, and water always finds it’s level.
This video about Lake Pontchartrain proves that wrong!
We can see that the electric towers going across Lake Pontchartrain, which are all designed to be at the same height above water, are indeed curving over the Lake.
Lake Pontchartrain proves that the earth is curved, and that water curves around the globe earth.
In the Official Flat Earth vs Globe Earth Biblical Discussion Facebook group, BJ Painter posted this gem:
Here we have the Nile river, It originates in Burundi which is SOUTH of the Equator, yet the nile flows NORTH up 👆 a Globe ???
Not a lot to say about that one, Right ?
(His premise is idiotic, as ‘North’ on the globe earth is not ‘up’. The Nile river is flowing downhill, moving from a high elevation to sea level. Simple as that!)
(Then, he proceeds to mock and attack people before they’ve even commented. The irony of course is that his spelling and his explanation sucks.)
Im sure the Trolls will say I am stupid for possibly mispelling or a word, Or maybe I have a stupid looking Dog so this info must be wrong. Dont listen to me just keep eating POTATO chips and watching Netflix.
If you want to discuss this with me then feel free to come with an experiment of you showing loads of water moving up a hill. If you can not show me proof by recreating this scenario I will not take you seriously.
Science is about testing the environment so that we all can understand our world in truth. When you fight me with your foolish ad hominem attacks you suppress truth and hurt everyone. Be a real man and use your brain !!
I know thats a real challenge but let’s see who can do it !! Check your motive at the door and take life seriously. I welcome any legitamate arguments.
Foolishness will be ignored !!!!! You can say he won’t answer me and cry all day BUT If its not about the nile going uphill you can miss me with it.
Thank goodness that some Official Flat Earth vs Globe Earth Biblical Discussion members have common sense:
Rodney Phillips replied with, “My friend, there is a aspect of geography called elevation, would suggest one look it up.”
Daniel Hurd replied with, “North does not mean up. North means north. Up is up. The Nile is not flowing up a globe. It is flowing downhill from its source. I have witnessed a ton of rivers that flow north, but they all flow downhill. Showing great evidence of gravity.”
This is yet another demonstration of why I am not a flat earther. They can’t even comprehend that the Nile river flows North because the water is moving from high elevation to sea level.
ANTARCTIVA UPDATE!! How the sun works over Antarctica on a Flat Earth 24 hr daylight By Flat Earth Admiral.
He can’t even spell Antarctica correctly, which is a bad sign.
Watch the man who is interviewed, starting @ the 35 second mark, and see if you want to believe his claims over the many scientists who prove otherwise.
He proclaims that:
The sun is hollow, and that there’s nothing inside of it, just surface.
It’s well understood that there is no fusion in the sun, and that there’s no burning of anything.
The sun is a transformer from some other dimension, from counter space. It’s a converter, which creates light.
You can’t see the sun in free space, just from the Earth or moon.
There are no light years, because there isn’t any light.
Then the video proclaims that there may be two suns, which cause 24 hour daylight in Antarctica.
