@Human Sheeple how do you still believe this after being proven wrong so many times?

@[Mitch] Truth Earth what do you think of the fact that shadow measurements at diff latitudes eliminate any chance if a flat Earth?

@Human Sheeple your statements have been proven false

Not by scientific method , they're just plain wrong

@Bibleman Bible is work of the devil. Book of Mormon is true word of god

@Bibleman who cares what the Bible says you already dismissed the entire old testament

Lol no, atheist to the max

Nah it isn't

It's just myths and legends of the time

So old testament is obsolete

So we can dismiss genesis

Why did some of it get dismissed

But not others

Isn't god a perfect being

There's no evidence Jesus said any of this

@Bibleman sure it's just a kids book anyeay

well we know the speed of light and distance to the sun, so that's an easy calc

speed of light has been measured in a vacuum

jeez man this is a simple google search

yep

bounced laser off the moon

timed the travel

no, space agencies are just part of the scientific community

speed of light was measured long before space travel existed

well that is one of the pieces of evidence

but the fact taht we brought back pieces of the moon is another compelling piece of evidence

no that wasn't one that was brought back

no,, the netherlands ambassodor lied about getting a moon rock, and everyone in his country believed him

those aren't handed out like that

especially not to some random ambassador

"Seems fast" is not mathematical nor scientific

Horizon drops with altitude

Easy to measure with a sextant or theodolite

@Human Sheeple if that small scale test with the glass and the light proves anything to you

then the fact taht we have a pressure gradient in teh atmosphere proves the earth is acclerating

@Citizen Z the horizon drops with altitude, this is easy to measure

with a sextant or theodolite

it can up up for down

snell's law is the wrong physics for this

Why does that road disappear so much sooner than something out over water

@Citizen Z what effect

The thermal distortion?

Flat Earth thinking requires a misunderstanding of angular resolution

They think it's the angle of line of site between objects, rather than the smallest angular size of an object

About 1 arcsecond

There is, but that's not the same angle as angular resolution

The height doesn't matter for the angular resolution

Angular size is not dependent on the height of me above the ground, only the size of the object and it's distance

I answered that already, about 1 arcsecond

.02 or so

Depends on it's size

Yep

This is where you're using the wrong angle

Angle has nothing to do with the ground

@Citizen Z so ya you're using the wrong angle when you talk about angular resolution

I.e. I can't see individual pixels of my 4k TV, unless I get close, and this has nothing to do with my height above the ground d

Ya he's on there

He's big fuquer

Doesn't change the resolution of my eye retina

K

Then what

No it appears to be level

Sea level

@jeremy if you stand at the bottom of a tall bldg, and look up, do the sides appear to come together?

The horizon is always below level

This gets more pronounced with altitude

How could you tell if the angle to the horizon isn't .5 deg down from level

A theodolite can measure angles accurately

That's why they don't use eyeballing for navigation

@🍄The Mad Philosopher🍄 if objects is large enough, it's vanishing point is further away

O that's just it occupying a portion of your field of view

So how can I see only.to the end if a hallway, but a mountain 50 miles away I see no problem

Lol that's nothing to do with aether

@🍄The Mad Philosopher🍄 the medium in a hallway is different than outside?

Hmm dunno

Seems to be constant circular motion

Yielding const acceleration

@Human Sheeple your words are pseudoscience

@Human Sheeple lol that's not a cause

@^Kevin^ how do you know the sun is close if you can't know it's real position

You cant

Auto exposure changing

No, it isnt

Try with a solar filter

@✧Mike Flatbird (Mike Blackbird)✧ how do you explain the horizon dropping from horizontal as you go up in altitude

@✧Mike Flatbird (Mike Blackbird)✧ many degrees yes. This is one method to measure the size of the earth

No it looks level

@jeremy tides prove water isn't flat over large bodied

Those are different causes

No the drop is surface tension

It's falling bc of gravity

And tides are due to tidal gravity

Yep

But tides is something else

Both are real
