can we not mark a spot on earth where we see the sunrise ??
Yes, we can, and it looks like the first image above on the equinox
The directions of sunrise and sunset
ok so where we see the sunrise and the spot on earth we marked with the stop sign
right we got our spot on earth that is east for everyone on earth now
What do you mean you want to know how east works?
aech
lol ive been debating this east thing for days
i wanna know if u go east do u circumnavigate or end up at the equator
Just confused what you guys are talking about exactly i guess
circumnavigate
If you go east you circumnavigate.
No, we don't, you are conflating the stop sign with the apparent sun position
see i dont think so
idk what conflating means
To combine two ideas into one, when in this case, they are different
con·flate
/kənˈflāt/
verb
gerund or present participle: conflating
the definition made it worse lol
I believe circumnavigation east works the same on the globe or flat model. Unless you are on the equator of the globe model
why
More complicated on a Globe, this is non-euclidean, if you self correct with a compass, you can stay on any particular latitude
It is easier for me to visualize on a flat earth
well idk
And it doesn't matter which map, AE and Mercator are simple to me in this case
to me it makes more sense to me that when ur on a globe u go east u will end up at the equator
ok how about this
we take a pole run it from the middle of the sun to earth
their is our marker
on earth
where is the marker gonna be at sunrise on the equinox
on the equator
everyones looking east at that pole
Straight out to the sun
It was already depicted above with those straight lines on the globe
we gotta pick a new topic tomorrow
this east thing is getting us nowhere lol
holy crap he still doesn't get this
Eh whatever
id like to see this east thing done
by someone who owns a plane
