so they see stars circling an empty location

2018-09-30 22:00:06 UTC  

since the north star is too far to see

2018-09-30 22:00:12 UTC  

Even when they look south?

2018-09-30 22:00:13 UTC  

its over the horizon

2018-09-30 22:00:24 UTC  

So they look in the opposite direction and see the same thing?

2018-09-30 22:00:43 UTC  

stars circle overhead around the north star

2018-09-30 22:01:03 UTC  

Ok. But observable evidence says they rotate around two points.

2018-09-30 22:02:07 UTC  

One observer in the north sees them rotating around Polaris while looking northwards. The other observer is in the south and sees them rotating around Sigma Octantis (approximately) while looking southwards.

2018-09-30 22:02:14 UTC  

So, two points.

2018-09-30 22:02:21 UTC  

On opposite ends of the sky.

2018-09-30 22:03:09 UTC  

yea, its my belief that sigma octantis which is empty and can't be seen is actually Polaris

2018-09-30 22:03:24 UTC  

But it's on the opposite side of the sky

2018-09-30 22:04:07 UTC  

And its always south, which the FE map says is a different direction depending upon where you are. So Sigma Octantis/Polaris is in a completely different location depending upon where you are?

2018-09-30 22:04:36 UTC  

polaris is out of view, but you can see the stars that circling it in the south

2018-09-30 22:04:48 UTC  

Why the south? Why not the north?

2018-09-30 22:04:53 UTC  

there is no octantis

2018-09-30 22:05:04 UTC  

at least this is my theory

2018-09-30 22:05:18 UTC  

I'm not an expert on what happens in the sky

2018-09-30 22:05:39 UTC  

I know for a fact that the sun rotates around flat earth as does the moon

2018-09-30 22:05:43 UTC  

both the same size

2018-09-30 22:06:09 UTC  

Well the sun is always the same distance away from the observer, since it never appears to change size.

2018-09-30 22:06:22 UTC  

if we lived on a globe then more people would of circumnavigated the globe north to south

2018-09-30 22:06:33 UTC  

Or they haven't because, just maybe, it's really cold?

2018-09-30 22:06:45 UTC  

the fact that only a handful claim to have done this (and really haven't) shows flat earth

2018-09-30 22:07:01 UTC  

How do you know they haven't?

2018-09-30 22:07:02 UTC  

that is another point, it shouldn't be cold in the south if we did live on the globe

2018-09-30 22:07:22 UTC  

Do you understand how light angles work?

2018-09-30 22:07:23 UTC  

earth is flat, its not possible to circumnavigate north to south

2018-09-30 22:07:59 UTC  

Wait so the Earth is flat, therefore north-south circumnavigation is impossible, therefore nobody's done it, therefore the Earth is flat?

2018-09-30 22:08:26 UTC  

Or what's your real reason for thinking all the people who say they have are lying?

2018-09-30 22:08:28 UTC  

flat earthers tracked the person who was circumnavigating recently, and based on the tracker they went to the south pole, turned around and came back

2018-09-30 22:08:45 UTC  

Source?

2018-09-30 22:08:48 UTC  

they gave them the circumnavigation credit even though they turned around, which isn't circumnavigation

2018-09-30 22:09:06 UTC  

Source?

<@&484512215764828162> could I have the "Questions everything role"? I had it at one point, maybe on a different account

2018-09-30 22:24:07 UTC  

Could somebody who thinks the Earth is flat attempt to refute this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transglobe_Expedition

1979 isn’t that long ago. Find some documentation of the event. Wikipedia isn’t reliable, I’m afraid...since anyone can post anything they want on there.
