Original Note:
This quote is falsely claimed to support flat earth. Picard, who reached a height only slightly high than the cruising altitude of a modern jet, was certain he could have seen the earth's curvature using a ruler, but the 3" windows over his "ship" would not allow this. https://flatearth.ws/auguste-piccard
