Can a vacuum exist next to a positive pressure without a container?
No, but I don't see your point. Are you implying that the claim that space is a vacuum is false? If so, they will tell you themselves that space isn't a true vacuum. You will find trace particles. And here on earth we can only create partial vacuums.
Why can't you see the "curve?" Why can you "zoom in" on a ship that's, "under the curve?"
The earth is fucking
HUGE. But you don't need to be that far high to see that there's a curvature to it.
This top answer on stackexchange does a pretty good job of explaining it. Of course, if you maintain the view that it's fake news and still gay, then I don't know, mango.
I would like to ask that at what distance from the Earth's surface the curvature of the Earth is visible. What layer of the atmosphere is this? I've noticed that at the height of 9-12 Km (the vie...

Can you trust the (((government?))) Or any science that you haven't replicated?
Trust is a funny thing. I wouldn't trust my close friend Bob (not his real name) with my money (because he's financially irresponsible), but I would certainly trust him with my life (because we've been through the thick of it). I wouldn't trust my friend Dave (also not his real name) with fixing my car (because he knows fuck all about them), but I would trust him to successfully give me a root canal (because he's a fucking dentist).
Governments, by design, are not there to help people. I don't trust governments with most decisions, because governments are in the business of control and governance. You only help the people you lord over to the extent to which it helps you lord over them easier. That's why Ronald Reagan's famous quote about government help is so poignant.
As far as science goes, I trust the physical sciences far more than social sciences, because it's less susceptible to corruption and political influence and meddling (though that's been gradually changing). I trust engineers (who are applied scientists in a way) and the institutions that produce them to the extent that they've been proven to be competent with a track record (Boeing fiasco need not apply, since that was a case of corporate malfeasance, rather than a case of shoddy engineering work). I trust that scientists are critical of each others' work to the extent that there isn't a profit or acknowledgement motive i.e., hiding bad science or falsifying it in order to get credit. But I have enough capacity for discernment to estimate with fair degree of accuracy (for my own purposes anyway) if there is institutional collusion to hide or obfuscate the truth, as was the case in the covid "vaccine" swindle, which was a huge financial boon for the right companies. The scientists there played along with the narrative because they were valuing their reputations more than scientific truth and/or had a financial stake in maintaining the facade (bribery or stocks in the companies).
You need to have a certain level of trust (or mundane faith, as I like to call it in these discussions). I trust that my toaster will work nearly 100% of the time within its window of operability, as was intended from the drawing boards to the manufacting and shipping. The same goes for every other piece of technology that has been tested and verified for use. It's all based on robust science and mathematics that, if you take the time to study, you will begin to have an appreciation for the way the things you may or may not take for granted around you works.
Do you trust others more than you're own perception?
I know that my perception, as well my senses, intuition, and reasoning faculties are limited. I can't see some things, but I know for a fact that they're there, such as radio and wireless signals, as well as conscious entities made of energy aka demons (that some want to believe are aliens). I have no choice but to have mundane faith in others in some matters. You can't do everything on your own. That includes the simple stuff like trusting your dry cleaner to clean your suits properly and the slightly more complex stuff like neurosurgery to remove a tiny tumor pressing against the inside of your skull that's detected from imaging scans (you also have to trust that the machine works and that the technician knows how to properly operate it).
Things are weirder than we can imagine.
Oh yes, more than you would be willing to believe.
