I will

2019-02-18 22:46:15 UTC  

I had more astrology stuff to talk about too.

2019-02-18 22:46:39 UTC  

With relation towards flat vs globe, not just random discussion of astrology.

2019-02-18 22:48:13 UTC  

@gohan Sure

2019-02-18 22:49:14 UTC  

Alright. So as I have been told often, you don't look to the sky to prove something about the ground. So I did some digging, and I came up with some solid proof.

2019-02-18 22:49:18 UTC  

Seismic waves.

2019-02-18 22:50:00 UTC  

Specifically, two properties of seismic waves. The first is the difference between surface waves (which travel along the surface of the Earth) and body waves (which travel within the Earth)

2019-02-18 22:50:01 UTC  

So what about them?

2019-02-18 22:50:13 UTC  

The second property is seismic shadow zones

2019-02-18 22:50:20 UTC  

I'll start with shadow zones.

2019-02-18 22:50:42 UTC  

Ok

2019-02-18 22:50:47 UTC  

The other one is a long-winded mathematical proof that I don't want to type out on a phone.

2019-02-18 22:51:17 UTC  

While I like math, I don’t like it that much.

2019-02-18 22:51:23 UTC  

Thank you

2019-02-18 22:51:58 UTC  

I'll see if I can bring it down, it's long in terms of length, not so much difficulty to understand

2019-02-18 22:52:01 UTC  

Anyways

2019-02-18 22:52:06 UTC  

Seismic shadow zones

2019-02-18 22:52:52 UTC  

Before I start, I want to make sure of one thing.

2019-02-18 22:53:05 UTC  

@The Gwench can we agree that seismic measurements are not faked?

2019-02-18 22:53:21 UTC  

No

2019-02-18 22:53:34 UTC  

I can’t say either way tbh

2019-02-18 22:53:37 UTC  

Then it's pointless to discuss

2019-02-18 22:53:55 UTC  

I mean, people's *lives* depend on accurate seismic measurements

2019-02-18 22:55:55 UTC  

Anyways, seismic waves from earthquakes can be felt at almost all parts of the Earth, at varying degrees of intensity based on distance from the epicenter

2019-02-18 22:56:40 UTC  

There are, however, areas at which seismic waves are not measurable. These are called "shadow zones"

2019-02-18 22:57:26 UTC  

Continue @gohan

2019-02-18 22:57:42 UTC  

On a globe, these are areas at which the refraction of seismic waves off of the core would prevent seismic waves from being measurable, since they'd be bounced away from them.

2019-02-18 22:58:39 UTC  

On a Flat Earth map, these areas are little more than patches on the ground, at which the waves mysteriously disappear, with no explanation as to why those specific areas lack seismic waves, while the areas around them do.

2019-02-18 22:58:54 UTC  

That's the basics of shadow zones

2019-02-18 23:00:17 UTC  

ok just because you say fancy stuff dosent mean your right @gohan

2019-02-18 23:00:36 UTC  

I think he's trying to simplify it as much as possible...

2019-02-18 23:00:42 UTC  

boi

2019-02-18 23:00:50 UTC  

This is about as simple as it gets

2019-02-18 23:00:58 UTC  

"seismic" isn't really that fancy, is it? That's in pokemon

2019-02-18 23:01:06 UTC  

Exactly😂

2019-02-18 23:01:19 UTC  

boi where

2019-02-18 23:01:39 UTC  

Seismic Toss

2019-02-18 23:01:42 UTC  

It's a move

2019-02-18 23:01:56 UTC  

omg

2019-02-18 23:02:03 UTC  

my brotha

2019-02-18 23:02:27 UTC  

@The Gwench you might want to read my stuff before it gets buried
