heheheh yes, the 'resistance is strong with this one'.

I like the debate. I have no vested interest in either argument really. if the earth *is* flat, nothing changes for me.

I still have to pay the same amount of rent, I still have to work to feed my family. I still need to get another post written and put up to earn some STEEM.

And the world is still full of idiots blowing stuff up.

One of my more interesting perspectives, having worked in government, is the notion that there is a huge coverup going on, that the government, or in this case NASA, is pulling some bug scam.

I'm not sure about the US government, but the NZ government couldn't pull off a conspiracy if it tried. The level of competence in all levels of government just isn't there. Just try getting them to organise a morning tea is a mission that requires about 100 people, fifteen departments and approvals from three ministers, two of which are overseas. And that's just to select which caterers to use. Getting them to decide on a menu is more work than I was willing to put in.
