    Q: "What's underneath the Earth?" aka "What's on the bottom?" aka "What's on the other side?"

    A: This is unknown. Some believe it to be just rocks, others believe the Earth rests on the back of four elephants and a turtle.

    You would enter an inertial reference frame, moving at a constant velocity in the direction the Earth was moving before you jumped. The Earth would continue accelerating upwards past you at a rate of 1g, so it would appear to you that you were falling into space.

    Q: "Why do the all the world Governments say the Earth is round?"

    A: It's a conspiracy

    Q: "What about NASA? Don't they have photos to prove that the Earth is round?"

    A: NASA is part of the conspiracy too. The photos are faked.

    Q: "Why has no-one taken a photo of the Earth that proves it is flat?"

    A: The government prevents people from getting close enough to the Ice Wall to take a picture.

    Q: "How did NASA create these images with the computer technology available at the time?"

    A: Since NASA did not send rockets into space, they instead spent the money on developing advanced computers and imaging software instead

    PLEASE NOTE This means that pictures confirming the roundness or flatness of the Earth DO NOT IN THEMSELVES CONSTITUTE VALID PROOF

    Q: "What is the motive behind this conspiracy?"

    A: The motive is unknown although it is probably money

    Q: "If you're not sure about the motive, why do you say there is a conspiracy?"

    A: Well it's quite simple really; if the earth is in fact flat, then the governments must be lying when they say it isn't.

    Q: "The government could not pull off the conspiracy successfully"

    A: Actually, they could.

    Q: "How are the world governments organized enough to carry out this conspiracy?"

    A: They only appear to be disorganized to make the conspiracy seem implausible.

    Q: Why hasn’t this site been shut down by the government?

    A: Doing so would prove that the government is hiding something.

    Q: No way could the government possibly guard the entire Ice Wall! It would take too many men! Millions of men!

    A: Not really. You could do it with a few hundred and some basic equipment.

    Q: Why is NASA’s space shuttle runway curved?

    A: It was specially constructed by NASA to be so. After all NASA are at the heart of the conspiracy.

    although, if the earth is being pushed up by dark matter; (causing the effect of gravity) then i dont think the earth could be too thick. If it was a VERY tall cylinder; then it would tip over? Although i guess this could be all wrong...

    B looks more stable then A. If A was larger, i think it would have a fairly large chance of tipping over?

    This is genuinely making me mad. Im incredibly angry right now thinking that there are people in the world like this.

    Please be a level

    (while looking at the word 'level' I have noticed that if you balance the word on the corner of the 'v' then it would be level:)

    Q : "Why is the North pole colder than the equator?"

    A: The sun circles over the equator, thus the poles don't receive the same intensity of light.

    POLES????? Just when I was starting to buy in too.
