Well I'm not a closed minded individual but I don't feed myself every conspiracy out there. But for a long time I have been intrigued by the concept of the Hollow Earth.
Me and a friend got into about this concept actually. I tried to to tell him if the earth was hollow the science community and our governments will tell us, because they will never lie to us. smile.gif

But I do find it strange that satellites and airplanes are prohibited to fly over the poles because of radiation and instrumental failure. Or that many pyramids have a lot of underground systems such as the ones he Mayans built and the Great Pyramids of Egypt.

One other interesting side note is that in 1942, Nazi Germany sent out an expedition composed of some of its leading scientists in an attempt to find an entrance to the hollow Earth.


Found some interesting pictures and a video, not saying they are real but tell me what you think about this.

That's probably why they lost.

Real science - the science that most advances in human knowledge is based upon - makes testable hypotheses and draws conclusions from those tests.

Geological studies have concluded that the Earth's core is made of an iron-nickel alloy.

Well could'nt say a 100% but the reason we have a magneticfield is because of an iron core so i doubt its hollow as chances are the weight ontop would have crashed it by now.

i don't think so... im no physics major or anything but wouldn't the whole ground just sink in? or should gravity be able to keep it in shape somehow?

The earth can't be hollow because it's flat. Everyone knows that.

Ill have to do more research into this subject but you guys don't find it strange that you need permission to even go to these poles?

And how did they determine the core is iron and nickel? It could be made up of unitainium for all they know.

That is strange. Moreover, it's completely untrue.

How would a hollow earth have the weight to to preform the gravitational pull it has over the moon ?

Hollow earth theories have been being debunked by science since the late 18th / early 19th century or so. There are so many holes in the idea (pun not intended). For example, for the earth to be hollow, its mass would have to be much less than it actually is, and if its mass was that low gravity wouldn't be as strong as it is.

Seriously.

You should have more respect for science and the scientific community. The entire world today is shaped by it. For instance, just because you don't understand how the machine in front of you works doesn't mean that it's based on some alien technology from a crashed UFO, or some crap like that. It just means that there are / have been men in the world who are cleverer than you. Just because you don't know how to know what the world is made out, it doesn't mean other men don't. It certainly doesn't mean there is even the slightest chance that the earth is hollow.

The world of conspiracy is a completely deluded one. A tangled web of self-supporting postulation which is reality has no discernible basis. Step away from the tinfoil hat.

Conspiracy theorist are people my friend, like corporations.

Serious, back up things with evidence.

Mass is what pulls objects in in gravity, a hollow Earth wouldn't have formed in the first place.

Earth couldn't have come together if it was hollow, and if it became hollow after it formed it would gravitate towards a larger planet and we'd be dead. The idea of a hollow Earth is on par with the ideas that the church upheld before the scientific revolution.

Clever enough to stage a fake alien invasion to unite the world under one government. I do have great respect for the science community, i was the science student of the year 2 years in a row. I'm just trying to find a connection of why things are the way they are on the planet.

And I know UFOs are man made and we all evolve from monkeys.

There's no denying that. sigh.gif

It's your theory, you back it up with evidence. See: The scientific method.

If you want proof that the earth is solid, see: gravitation and the formation of the solar system (an extension of gravity).
