..help, more of a cry for help than a discussion point.. I've just discovered one of my oldest friends believes the earth is flat... I don't know how to handle this situation, help >.>

ask him to watch live coverage of rocket launches (spacex has the best onboard camera) and international space station docking and undocking..

the metric system came about through measuring the Earth and its curvature.

A fascinating adventure through revolutionary France if anyone bothered to look it up.

Give him a lobotomy and a kick to the nuts for good measure, that should set him straight.. Or at least render the rest of him as stale as the part of the brain where Flat Earth is believed to be true.

Tell him to go to the edge and take a picture. If its flat there is an edge, and clearly its round and he will never get to the edge ^-^

The Flat Earth assumes satilites can't exist,so prove they do in terms they can accept.

Iridium flares work nicely here, basically flashes of light reflected from mirrors on certain satilites.

This website has listings of times when they can be viewed. So go ask him to prove it to himself, simple as.

If he tries to argue they don't exist or are some stupid government thing, just switch hum off and back on again.
