Not with their reverse graviton field. Such a field would be a given for the covert headquarters.

You believe gravity exists?

I know logic is not a big thing among flat-earthers, but:

You can drive east from one side of the North American continent to the other, then board a ship and continue east to Europe (or Africa).  Once there, one can continuing traveling east until they reach the Pacific Ocean.  Now hop another ship and sail east, past Japan and the Hawaiian Islands, until you hit the beach at Malibu.  Repeat ad infinitum.

Where's the edge?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Pfffft. There's no aliens on the underside of the Earth. Everyone knows it's turtles all the way down.
GAH!

A flat earth? That's just silly talk. Us deep thinkers know it's a giant Mobius Strip.

Bill--have you ever tried that? I wouldn't dare. the people who have fall off the edge and are replaced with replicants , almost exact copies with a greater tendency to do their master's (from the underside's) biddings (and often a far right leaning politically); the also contain implanted memories to believe they circled the world, because those same masters get hungry and can catch those who fall off either edge, and prepare feasts according to their To Serve Man cookbook.

Ray--a Mobius strip looks like a good idea, but its single surface gives the alien masters nowhere to hide.

I have trouble with Newton's Laws of Motion. The part that says for action there is an equal and opposite action. So there should be an equal number of apples falling up.

Scientist always have weasel words. "In general, it is true that. . . but we need more money so we can do more studies before we can have a conclusive answer" President Truman wanted a one handed economist. I want a scientist with a big enuff checkbook.

They have apple farms in Australia too so I think that counts.

There hasn't been a scientist with a big enough checkbook since Richard Dreyfuss in Jaws.

BP--while the apples are falling downward toward the earth is actually falling "upward" toward them; of course this is imperceptible due to the mass differential.

As for "In general, it is true that. . . but we need more money so we can do more studies before we can have a conclusive answer", such is the way of science, where the theory is clarified and corrected by observation and controlled experimentation. Indeed, that is the strength of science as well. And whatever the size of the checkbook, it will never be big enough, as there will always be questions to be answered.

if an apple fell on the pope s head, would he need a doctor?

Not with that pointy hat; it would just be impaled atop it.

What was the pope doing in the orchard? Is this one of those "Does the Pope shit in the woods?" jokes?

What variety of apple was it? Some apples are harder than others. Did the pope keep the offending apple so the incident could be investigated by the papal police?

If a doctor needed to visited the pope due to the strike they could later make applesauce, or maybe a few turnovers.

There are so many unanswered questions that this mystery may never be solved.
