Attention seeking behaviour I'd say

Even if the Earth were flat, then Nasa could presumably still go "up"? Therefore why blame them for a conspiracy?

Also, what about the fact you see a ships mast on the horizon before you see the hull? I thought that was the way of explaining the curvature of the earth to the layman?
