you're looking east

which doesn't point at the equator

you'd have to point south east to look at the equator

so when i lookk at a sunrise ont he equinox im not looking at the equator ?

right

you're looking at the sun,

well i can show u on google earth i am looking at the equator

how

Here is what he is referring to

I know he was gonna do that

So next question is, why are the lines not straight east, why do they curve

looks like they're drawn wrong

they are going straight east at the sunrise

sunrise is east for everyone ont he equinox

do u want to see the video ?

why aren't they drawn parallel to the equator

taht would be east

nope east is at the sunrise on an equinox

its east for everyone

on that one day

east is the same on every other day too

not just the equinox

ok

ur right

east is always east

ok

yes and these lines don't depict an east-only path

those lines show east at the sunrise on an equinox

would u like me to link the video ?

i've seen the video

i'm explaining the misconception from that video

imagine a path instead of what you see in teh video, but one at a constant latitude

it's a circle around the earth right, parallel to the equator?

yes

and at any point on that path, which way are you facing

not east becuase im not looking at where the sun rises on the equinox

ok this is where you're wrong

maybe

the sun WOULD rise if you looked in that direction

here's another example

if you're travel along the equator, from south america to africa, which direction are you facign
