I kind of get why, since it lands YT in a lot of legal issues, but it’s still kind of messed up.

That’s the Arctic circle, hence why he can see both day and night.

How does that fit on the ball model?

It’s a bit difficult to explain, but I’ll do my best.

Keep in mind this too https://youtu.be/29mh3flRqUU

*Yes, this image is terrible, I literally drew it myself just now.*

LOL

Basically the light of the sun can still touch the moon

At the *very top* of the Globe model, the light from both the sun and the moon are hitting the same spot.

What’s on the other side?

So at that top point, someone can technically see both at the same time,

Wdym on the other side?

From your drawing as in the other “face”

If you check the reflection of light of the moon, you see it focalized, like a lamp

So I assume it can’t be that far

The drawing kind of sucks, as the lines overlap the edge of the earth, but basically one side has sunlight and the other has moonlight (except during full moon).

At the very top, both the sunlight and moonlight can narrowly touch the same spots

Look at this sun, is a very interesting one. https://youtu.be/GJ8_u6Sf1t8

Provided you’re in the right location, you can see both at once with such a sharp divide.

Hard to believe the sun not move

I can’t really attest to *how* sharp the divide is, so that part has me, but I can see how it would work.

I still find it hard to fully internalize that

That sun’s movement kinda makes you think

How the sun looks like it’s getting small?

I sort of just picture the clouds being thick as the sun sets.

Also, it’s pretty fair to see that and disagree with what I said. Not trying to convince you, just trying to show that the other view isn’t completely stupid.

But the sun “setting” would mean here that it’s moving as we are accustomed to see in this model: https https://goo.gl/images/Vs683z

And yeah don’t worry, I understand you

Right, right, and it works fine for that model (sort of)

Actually more of a question to you, how do you explain the sun seemingly staying in the same position while also looking like it’s shrinking into the distance?

What do you mean “staying in the same position”?

In that video the sun stays in the same position (the camera doesn’t move but the sun stays in the center)

At the same time the sun looks like it’s receding off into the distance

But with the sun rotating away, as in the model you posted, the sun should also bare off to the left or right while it fades out.

It’s almost as if the video doesn’t entirely match either view.

Yeah. It’d say that the camera is in the spot where the curve is yet to be seen. If, say, there was another camera more miles further, then you’d see it making the curve, because, from direct perception at that moment, and taking into account the size of the sun, it’d take more miles (for the camera) to see the “leaning”.

The model shows “quick” turns, but in reality it ain’t that fast

No, I understand that

Also, if you put your finger on the starting point, you’ll see some slight leaning to the left
